Exceptional Performance in a Compact Strobe

Despite its compact size, the FJ250 delivers outstanding power and speed. With recycle times as fast as 0.01 seconds, it’s one of the fastest 250Ws strobes available—perfect for action, sports, and fast-paced portrait sessions. Continuous shooting up to 50 fps (camera and power dependent) ensures you never miss a decisive moment.

The advanced IGBT+ technology improves flash precision, enhances camera compatibility, and maintains consistent performance across the entire power range.

Shoot Longer with Flexible AC/DC Power

The included FJ Pro AC/DC Battery delivers 850+ full-power flashes per charge, while the optional FJ ProMax Battery extends this to over 1,400 flashes. Batteries are interchangeable across the FJ250, FJ400 II, and FJ800, simplifying your power setup and reducing downtime.

AC trickle-charging allows you to continue working while plugged in—ideal for long studio sessions or events.

Consistent Colour & Accurate Light Control

The FJ250 maintains excellent colour stability at 5500K (±150K) across its full output range, with precise 0.1-stop or 1-stop adjustments. The built-in 12W bi-colour LED modelling light offers independent brightness and colour temperature control, making it useful for pre-visualising light or as a compact continuous light source.

Intuitive OLED Touchscreen Control

The full-colour OLED touchscreen is designed for speed and simplicity. Tap, swipe, and slide to adjust power, groups, modes, and settings quickly. Built-in on-screen help guides reduce setup time and keep you focused on shooting.

LED group colour indicators make multi-light setups easier to manage, even in complex environments.

Native Bowens Mount & Modifier Compatibility

A native Bowens mount allows direct use of your favourite modifiers without brackets. The round flash head and extended flash tube provide a wide, even light spread, ideal for softboxes and reflectors. The included Rapid Box Switch Insert enables fast attachment of compatible Westcott modifiers, while the integrated umbrella mount supports large umbrellas with ease.

Creative Mask™ – More Looks, Less Time

With Creative Mask™, you can pre-programme which strobes fire and how many frames are captured, generating up to six unique lighting variations without moving your lights. This is especially valuable for volume photography, sports portraits, and fast commercial workflows.
