Westcott FJ80 Universal Touchscreen 80Ws Speedlight

The Westcott FJ80 Universal Touchscreen 80Ws Speedlight is the industry’s first touchscreen, multi-brand round-head speedlight with an integrated radio transceiver, giving photographers revolutionary multi-brand camera compatibility along with the natural, flattering light quality of a round flash head. The round head produces a more natural light output than a traditional rectangular design, mimicking the “big light in the sky” for appealing catchlights and evenly filling cylindrical light modifiers from center to edge.

At 80Ws of power, the FJ80 offers a 9 F-stop energy range (0.3 to 80Ws) adjustable in 0.1-stop and 1.0-stop increments, with color temperature stability of 5500K (±150K) maintained across the entire power range. Flash modes include both Manual and TTL, with High-Speed Sync (HSS) available up to 1/8000 second, along with front- and rear-curtain sync. Continuous capture reaches up to 20 frames per second (camera-dependent), and recycle time ranges from 0.05 to 1.2 seconds.

A built-in integrated wireless radio transceiver (2.4GHz) enables control from up to 328 feet (100m) away, with wireless operation across 31 channels and up to 15 groups, letting photographers coordinate multiple lighting setups or avoid interference from other photographers nearby. When mounted on-camera, the FJ80 can function as both a flash and a transmitter, controlling other compatible FJ-series lights and receivers. An energy-efficient 3W LED modeling lamp (5600K ±200K) with auto-adjusting, independently controllable output helps preview lighting direction and effect.

Handling centers on a large 2.8-inch full-color LCD touchscreen display, replacing traditional buttons and cumbersome menus with an intuitive interface for navigating flash settings, group and channel assignment, group exposure compensation, and automatic memory recall. The flash head bounces from 0 to +90 degrees and swivels a full 360 degrees for flexible positioning, and an onboard USB-C data port allows for firmware updates.

Build quality centers on a compact, lightweight design weighing just 1.18 lb with battery installed, with passive cooling and a dual-stage heat protection system for safe operation during extended use. Mounting options include a standard hot shoe with a built-in 1/4″-20 female thread, or the included shoe stand for free-standing, off-camera use. Power comes from a removable, rechargeable lithium polymer battery (1000mAh), rated for 400+ full-power flashes per charge.

The kit includes the FJ80 speedlight, a lithium polymer battery, a battery charger and cord, a USB-A to USB-C cable, a shoe stand, and a travel case.
