Godox FC-16C 2.4GHz 16 Channel Wireless Flash Transmitter for Canon
Product Description
The Godox FC-16C 2.4GHz Wireless Flash Trigger offers photographers a reliable and versatile way to control their flashes remotely. Designed specifically for Canon cameras with a centre-firing pin, this compact trigger set includes both a transmitter and receiver and can operate at distances of up to 100 metres. Whether you're triggering studio strobes, camera flashes or acting as a camera shutter release, the FC-16C keeps things stable, responsive, and simple - no frills, just results.
Perfect for Canon users who want full manual control of their flash setup, the FC-16C suits studio photographers, strobists, and anyone working on-location with off-camera flash setups. It also functions as a remote shutter release, ideal for long exposure or self-portraits.
If you're tired of being tethered to your light or camera, or dealing with unreliable optical triggers, this wireless unit solves that frustration. It ensures your flashes fire precisely when you need them - with fewer misfires and minimal fuss.
Built on a dependable 2.4GHz signal and offering 16 selectable channels, the FC-16C cuts through interference and gives you consistent firing over longer distances. Use it to fire one flash or many - all from the same trigger. While it doesn’t carry TTL or metering data, this isn’t a drawback for those who prefer full control over their flash power and zoom settings in Manual mode.
