Westcott FJ80 II Series Touchscreen Speedlight User Manual

Westcott FJ80 II Series Touchscreen Speedlight

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Westcott FJ80 II Touchscreen Speedlight. The FJ80 II is the perfect addition to the growing family of FJ Series Wireless products; FJ400 Strobe, FJ200 Strobe, FJ80 Speedlight, FJ Wireless Triggers, and FJ-XR Wireless Receiver (all sold separately). The original FJ80 was the industry’s first-round head speedlight and transceiver equipped with multi- brand compatibility and touchscreen controls. The FJ80 II is the next iteration in that series and offers improved performance, wireless connectivity, and overall user experience. The FJ80 II provides an experience, unlike any other flash. The round head provides a more natural light output mimicking the sun, leading to more appealing catchlights in your subject’s eyes and evenly filling up cylindrical modifiers from the center to the edge. It’s compact, lightweight, and performance-driven, which makes it perfect for on-camera and off-camera photography. The FJ80 II also doubles as a transceiver, meaning the ability to send and receive wireless communication with select FJ devices. With the ability to receive wireless communications from the FJ80 II, FJ80, FJ-X Triggers and Canon RT devices, the compact FJ80 II allows you to squeeze into the smallest spaces or reach new heights to achieve your desired lighting effect. One last thing, and this is the important one. Don’t forget that Westcott HQ is based in Maumee, OH, and our team’s available to answer your questions, Monday-Friday 9 am-5 pm ET. We also have a community of loyal Westcott users who are ready to share their tips and tricks via the Westcott Lighting Community on Facebook during the week or on the weekend. We hope you’re excited to get started with your new lighting tool because we’re excited to see what you create. Thank you for your business.

Important things to know before starting…

Reviewing Firmware Files
Firmware updates will be made available on the Westcott Firmware Update page:
(https://www.westcott.com/firmware.) Firmware updates often improve the overall performance of the device or allows for minor updates to the GUI of the FJ Wireless product. Please review ALL documentation included with each firmware download to ensure all of the necessary preparation steps are complete before installing the firmware.

TTL ±3 Flash Exposure Compensation
±3 TTL Flash Exposure Compensation (FEC) on FJ Wireless Triggers or host FJ80 Speedlights (when used as a transmitter) is independent of the Flash Exposure Compensation (FEC) displayed on FJ Wireless lights (when used as a client). Meaning, a change of the FEC ±3 on FJ Wireless Triggers or a host FJ80 Speedlight will adjust the light output in TTL mode; however, a client FJ80’s touchscreen will not visually indicate the FEC changes made on an FJ Wireless Trigger or host FJ80 Speedlight. FJ80 Speedlight’s FEC can be further adjusted ±3 on the client light directly.

Canon Continuous Mode
When photographing in Canon Continuous Mode, two overlapping squares will be visible on FJ Wireless Triggers & FJ80 Speedlight displays, and the FJ Wireless System will default to Manual Mode; disabling TTL and HSS functionality. Exit Continuous Mode on the Canon camera to resume TTL and HSS functionality.

FJ80 II Speedlight: Warnings

Caution

• IMPORTANT: During operation, the speedlight lens and various components of the FJ80 II speedlight temperatures may increase. Please use caution while using it to avoid severe burns or injuries.
• Do not touch the speedlight lens after immediate use to avoid potential injury.
• Use only with the Westcott FJ80 II Lithium Polymer Battery and Charging Base.
• Never leave unattended around children and/or pets.
• Always confirm proper installation, locking, and unlocking when adding or removing from the camera hot shoe. (NOTE: Failure to completely rotate the dial to lock and unlock could permanently damage the locking pin.)
• Keep away from fire, water, and moisture.
• Do not submerge in water.
• Avoid drastic temperature changes before, during, or after use.
• Always remove the FJ80 II Lithium Polymer Battery from the FJ80 II Speedlight during travel/storage to avoid accidental operation, which could lead to overheating or permanent damage.
• Do not force adjust or add excessive weight to the speedlight head.
• Only use the FJ80 II Speedlight with compatible FJ80 mounts, brackets, modifiers, and/or accessories.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify any Westcott products. Contact Westcott for assistance.
• The operating temperature range is 14°~122°F / -10~50°C).

Dual-Stage Heat Protection System
The FJ80 II is equipped with a self-monitoring system ensuring safe operation during continued full-power use during a short timeframe.

• Stage 1: Once the speedlight reaches an internal operating temperature of 212°F (100°C), the screen will display a yellow [OH]. The recycle time will also increase by 2 seconds in an effort to cool the unit while allowing for continued operation.
• Stage 2: Once the strobe reaches an internal operating temperature of 266°F (130°C), the screen will display a red [OH] icon. The recycle time will increase an additional 2 seconds in efforts to cool the unit while allowing for further operation.

Once the unit has cooled, the yellow or red [OH] will disappear from the touchscreen, it will then be safe to continue operation.

NOTE: The LED modeling lamp will be disabled during OH to assist in minimizing the internal temperature.

FJ80 II Speedlight: Firmware Updates

The FJ80 II Speedlight is designed with a USB-C port to allow for firmware updates only.

FJ80 II Speedlight: SYNC Functions

Enabling Front or Rear Curtain Sync
Front or Rear Curtain Sync is ideal in normal scenarios and when color consistency (5500°K ±200), full-power output (80 Ws), and the fastest recycling are essential.

1. Press the Sync selection button repeatedly until three arrows appear in the white square at the top right of the screen.
2. Front Curtain will show three arrows, with the first arrow filled in white.
3. Rear Curtain will show three arrows, with the third arrow filled in white.

NOTE: Utilize HSS (see below) when choosing to use shutter speeds above your camera’s maximum normal sync speed (typically: 1/200s, 1/250s, or 1/320s ).

Enabling ‘HSS (High-speed Sync)’
High-speed Sync is ideal for mixing a substantial amount of available light and flash when proper exposure with a shallow depth of field/wide aperture requires a flash sync speed above the camera’s maximum normal sync speed (typically: 1/200s, 1/250s or 1/320s). HSS allows compatible cameras to achieve flash sync speed up to 1/8000s.

1. Press the Sync Selection button repeatedly until an H with a lightning bolt appears in the white square at the top of the screen.

NOTE: HSS requires an FJ-X Transmitter or FJ80 Series Speedlight. Enabling Freeze Sync Freeze Sync is ideal for freezing fast-moving objects lit by the speedlight. [Available in Manual Mode Only.]

1. Press the physical Home button and then tap on the Settings menu.
2. Locate the Freeze Setting and tap the OFF button until ON appears.
3. Press the Home button and select the desired mode.

  • FJ80 II Battery: Performance and Care
  • FJ80 II Battery Performance

The FJ80 II Lithium-Polymer Battery (11.1V 17.76Wh, 1600mAh) is capable of 500+ full-power flashes with the modeling lamp disabled and screen brightness set to Minimum Brightness (1).

FJ80 II Charging & Life Expectancy
The average charge time is ~2 hours from complete discharge. The FJ80 Lithium- Polymer Battery (11.1V 17.76Wh, 1600mAh) will achieve at least 300 full charge cycles (@80% after 300). Continued usagebeyond the expected charge cycles will result in diminished performance and the ability to hold a charge. Avoid charging and using the battery outside of the stated operating temperatures (14~122°F / -10°~50°C) as it will affect the overall performance of the battery and speedlight. Preserve the battery’s longevity by storing at roughly ~40% capacity at room temperature in a dry environment and recharge to this capacity at least once every three months when not being used.
