The 1205CX power pack is Speedotron's workhorse. True power output ratioing, variable dial-down power and model lamp intensity give precise control over power distribution to the flash heads. Electronics are engineered for reliability and safety on location assignments, and are housed in a dust-proof and compact sealed case.

The 202VF CC flash heads are compact, with 7" zoom reflectors. A focusing reflector mount permits variable narrow to wide-angle coverage with all Black Line reflectors and accessories. The heads are built for easy storage and travel,and are cabled with the new locking/quick-release power supply connector. The flash tubes are color corrected, to give a slightly warmer hue to the light output.

This Speedotron 1205CX 1200 W/S Air Travel Systemkit is complete with 9' light stands for strong support, umbrellas for softening and broadening the light output, and a 3-section padded case that will endure airline shipping, and still protect your investment.

The pack and heads' compact design make this kit perfect for location photography.

Very short recycling time, even at full power -- great for moving subjects.

3-Stop range Variable Power Control
Variable modeling light control on each channel

4 arc-protected outlets in 3 power channels, and heavy-duty switches provide safety and durability.

Acoustic signal "beeps" when power pack is fully recycled.

Heads are high-efficiency -- necessary for rapid firing, constant model light use, and use with a softbox.
The heads have color-corrected flash tubes for a warmer hue of light.

Variable beam focus collar alters the light output, and accepts all of Speedotron's Black Line Reflectors.

Head extension cables are available for heads in use at longer distances from the power pack.

20' Phono to PC Sync Cord (13562) is included.

A silver and a white umbrella are included to soften the light output to your particular needs.

The included light stands support the flash heads and accessories.

The travel case is built by Tenba -- a name well known for stury, air-shippable equipment cases.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can it hold the Nikon D7200 with 55-300 mm lens

A: Yes, but it's not an ideal combination. Weight wise, yes, but zoomed to 300mm there's a moderate chance that you'll get some instability especially with lower shutter speeds. A support weight closer to 17 lbs. would be preferable.

Q: 2. Does this fit a IPhone 7+? There are no specs for the camera holder.

A: There is a phone holder included in the package that works fine for the iPhone X and still has room. I'd say as long as you don't have a bulky case on it, you should be fine. You may also want to consider purchasing the Sidekick 360 Plus accessory.

Q: 3. what size phone can this hold?

A: The MeFOTO BackPacker Air Travel Tripod will hold a phone up to 8.8 lbs. The actual size of the phone that can be mounted on the "Air Travel Tripod" is only limited by the "Smartphone Tripod Adapter" chosen. Here is a link to a very common adapter: https://bhpho.to/2chyZWQ

Q: 4. Im having trouble extending center column and keeping it extended. Is there a video for this?

A: From my getting use to the tripod I found it necessary, once any extension had been made, to securely rotate and then tighten the column or the tripod leg so it would hold its position.

Q: 5. Does the tripod include a plate?

A: Yes it does.

Q: 6. Is there a counter weight hook?

A: Yes, the tripod has a hook to hang weights for additional stability at the end of the main shaft.

Q: 7. Can it be used with a gimbal head? If yes, which ones?

A: The load weight of this tripod is 8.8 lb. so most likely between the camera, gimbal and heavier lens, this tripod will not support the weight.

Q: 8. Will the Sunwayfoto Arca & Manfrotto Compatible Clamp fit this tripod?? I need to be able to use my Manfrotto 200PL plate with this tripod.

A: Sorry, but the top plate is permanently attached and cannot be exchanged. The only detachable part is the Mini Arca-Swiss PMU25 plate and according to MeFoto's distributor, the Manfrotto plate probably will not fit in it's place.

Q: 9. Does the QR Arca-Type plate need a tool to tighten or does the screw have the loop on the end where carrying an additional tool or quarter is not required to tighten?

A: It comes with a tool to tighten but carry an extra quarter just to be on safeside.

Q: 10. Can the center column be removed and then put back in upside down to get shots of things on the ground (e.g. small fungi)?

A: Yes, the entire center column can be removed to use as a monopod, and it can mount upside down to allow for micro shooting on the ground.

[120 VAC, 60 Hz] Replacing some older heads. The new fans are much quieter which I imagine everyone on set appreciates, I know I do. What else is there to say? It's Speedotron and it works forever.

[120 VAC, 60 Hz] Great price and great quality. I modified it to fit my ranger quadra head and have been using it ever since. If you have been thinking do I need a beauty dish-- buy this one and enjoy it.

[4] Have many of these, just purchased a new one to replace one of my old ones that I had misplaced. They are rugged, sturdy and project light well.. its an umbrella reflector, what else can be said?

[1200 Ws] Use mostly for product and portrait photography. I like the power distribution and the four light unit outlets. The 1205CX are admittedly heavy, but very reliable and rugged. So please build more Speedotron stuff for european voltage.

[59 lb] it provides an excellent consistent source of power. don't really own any other so can't compare.

[3-Stop Range] The light this modifier produces is just beautiful. Use it with my Alienbees and a single 580 EX II. I don't really have anything negative to say about it other than it's big and can't collapse down like a soft box.

[1200 Ws] This is the first and only flash gear I have used aside from Profoto. This gear is hard working and very consistent. My gear has traveled extensively and has always worked flawlessly on arrival. It is not fancy or trendy but has been a key component in my work, commissioned or personal.

[Yes] This little reflector makes a punchy key light for the brave.

[59 lb] Works just fine as a reflector should... needs the red collar/ring to attach to the 200 series flash head, or attaches as is to the 100 series heads.

[120 VAC, 60 Hz] I use Blackline power boxes & 102 heads for location promotional and portrait work.
