Studio Flash HS Freeze 2X – compact & intuitive to use

The HS Freeze 2X is the ideal studio flash for anyone looking to take their photography to the next level – more powerful than a speedlight, yet just as compact and easy to use. With 250 Ws, an intuitive touch display, and wireless control, it's perfect for beginners and ambitious photographers who want to get more out of their lighting. At the same time, it's an excellent addition for professionals seeking a lightweight and flexible secondary light source.

Light & mobile: Only 1.28 kg incl. battery – as small as a camera lens

As small as a camera lens, yet powerful enough for professional shots. At just 8.5 × 8.6 × 19.8 cm (incl. battery) and weighing 1.28 kg, the HS Freeze 2X is extremely mobile and easy to transport – perfect for travel, outdoor shoots, or small studios, without sacrificing powerful flash performance.

Maximum Power: 250 Ws – more powerful than speedlights

With 250 Ws of flash power and a guide number of 50, the HS Freeze 2X offers significantly more power than conventional speedlights. The finely tuned 9-stop power control allows for precise adjustment of light intensity – ideal for portraits, product photos, or creative lighting setups with maximum control.

Flexible Modeling Light: 12 W Bi-Color LED – usable as modeling, video or photo light

The integrated 12 W LED modeling light offers stepless color temperature adjustment (2700 K – 6500 K) and can be used as a modeling light, video light, or continuous light – ideal for more control over the lighting mood.

On-Location & Studio: Battery for 450 flashes (at full power)

The powerful lithium-ion battery allows up to 450 flash releases at maximum power, perfect for mobile shoots without a power source. In the studio, the HS Freeze 2X can be charged directly via power adapter, allowing for unlimited operating times without battery changes.

Fast & intuitive: Touch display and group LED for intuitive control

No complicated menus – the intuitive touch display ensures fast, easy operation. Power levels, flash modes, color temperature, and sync settings can be adjusted directly on the display, allowing you to fully concentrate on your shots. The integrated group LED provides clear visualization of the current group assignment. This allows you to quickly and efficiently assign your flashes to one of 16 groups and keep all settings in view. The LED indicator on the side of the flash enables quick control of the selected group.

Instantly ready: Extremely fast recycling time of 0.01–1.2 seconds

Thanks to a recycling time of only 0.01 – 1.2 seconds, the HS Freeze 2X is immediately ready again – ideal for continuous shooting and spontaneous flash sequences. The continuous shooting mode with up to 60 flash releases per second enables dynamic continuous shots – ideal for action, sports, and fashion photography. Even at maximum power, the charging time remains minimal, guaranteeing a fluid and efficient workflow without waiting times.

Capture movement: 60 fps continuous shooting & flash duration

With 60 fps high-speed continuous shooting and an ultra-short flash duration of up to 1/24,700 sec., the flash freezes even the fastest movements razor-sharp. Perfect for action, sports, and high-speed photography, where every detail counts.

• Normal mode:
  (t = 0.5 s): 1/1,400 – 1/16,500 sec.
• Freeze mode for maximum precision:
  (t = 0.5 s): 1/1,440 – 1/24,700 sec.

The freeze mode reduces the flash duration to an absolute minimum, allowing even the fastest movements – from rapid sports shots to splashing water droplets – to be captured crystal clear without motion blur. Thanks to HSS support up to 1/8000s, the camera remains flexible – even with extremely short shutter speeds and open aperture for perfect background isolation.

Advanced Flash Modes: Supports HSS, TTL, Strobe, Freeze, Front & Rear-Curtain Sync

The HS Freeze 2X offers all essential flash modes to adapt to any shooting situation:

• TTL (Through-The-Lens) – Automatic exposure metering for perfectly matched flash power, ideal for changing light conditions.
• Manual – Precise control of flash power in 9 steps for absolute control over exposure.
• HSS (High-Speed Sync) – Flash synchronization with shutter speeds shorter than the flash sync speed, perfect for shooting with an open aperture in bright ambient light.
• Freeze Mode – Ultra-short flash duration for razor-sharp details
• Strobe Mode – Multiple flashes for dynamic movements
• 1st Curtain Sync – The flash fires at the beginning of the exposure, ideal for natural motion representation.
• 2nd Curtain Sync – The flash fires at the end of the exposure to capture light trails and dynamic movements.
• Easy Cap Mode – Allows subjects to be isolated in multiple exposures by having the flash illuminate the main subject and leaving the background unexposed for masking.

With this versatile mode selection, the HS Freeze 2X optimally adapts to a wide range of photographic requirements – from dynamic action scenes to creative studio setups.
