    Westcott introduces the FJ400-SE 400Ws, the company’s AC-only strobe in the ever-expanding and highly popular FJ series. It’s perfect for anyone just getting into off-camera flash photography or more seasoned pros seeking an uncomplicated addition to their existing kit.

    Designed with simplicity in mind, this new strobe is being positioned as the ideal go-to solution for shooting portraits, product photography and content creation. With the included power cord, you just plug it in and turn it on. A large LCD screen, intuitive menu and auto memory recall combine to make setups quick and easy.

    With a six f-stop output range spanning 12.5 to 400 Watt seconds, the FJ400-SE delivers a consistent 5500K daylight-balanced flash. The built-in 15W LED modelling light gives you reliable 5500K daylight output to seamlessly preview your light placement and composition.

    Adjustable recycle modes include Fast and power-saving Stable, which you can easily toggle between as required at the push of a button. With a vast array of available modifiers, the Bowens S mount and umbrella holder make creative light shaping a snap.
