Power & Performance
The FJ400 II's 9-stop power range (1.56 - 400Ws) in 0.1 and 1.0 increments makes it readily adaptable to a variety of situations. The flash head is backed by a 1/24,000 peak action-stopping flash duration in Freeze mode, is capable of 50 fps (camera and power dependent), and supports high-speed sync up to 1/8000 second as well as front and rear curtain sync. Users can also adjust flash exposure compensation from -3 to +3 EV. The FJ400 II was designed to suit both studio and on-location shoots.
Creative Mask Mode
In addition to basic manual and TTL flash modes, other handy settings are available, such as the Westcott Creative Mask feature, a great asset for high-volume and fast-paced shoots. This functionality gives photographers the ability to create up to six lighting combinations without moving the fixtures. Thanks to the FJ400 II's touchscreen, users can easily control when each light fires in a sequence to capture multiple dynamic looks from a single setup.
Seamless Integration
The FJ400 II is part of Westcott's 2.4 GHz FJ wireless system, meaning it can work with all FJ triggers and flashes for a cohesive lighting ecosystem.

The Westcott StudioLink app also offers wireless adjustments and advanced functionality directly from your smartphone.
Wireless 2.4 GHz Radio Frequency
The flash head has an integrated 31-channel, 16-group, 2.4 GHz wireless radio frequency with a range of 328'. The wireless system prevents interference with other photographers or to shoot several individual setups.
Interchangeable Batteries
The FJ400 II runs on a powerful, removable 29.6V, 2500mAh AC/DC lithium-ion battery that will give you 550 full and thousands of low-power flashes on a 1.5-hour charge. The included FJ Pro battery has LED status indicators to keep you appraised of remaining power. Users can also decide to purchase the separately available FJ ProMax battery with higher capacity to achieve up to 1000 flashes at full power. The FJ400 II's shared battery compatibility with the FJ800 unit eliminates the need for multiple power solutions, while a convenient AC trickle-charge functionality ensures uninterrupted performance during extended sessions.
