I have couple of Flashpoint flashes for Sony (V1, Li-ion R2) and I'm planning to buy a Fuji camera so my question is that if I just buy a Flashpoint R2 Mark II TTL Transmitter for Fuji, will I be able to use my existing Sony flash on camera in TTL?

Also, will Fuji transmitter on camera will be able to talk with Sony version of V1 off camera?

Yes to the second one. The transmitters and receivers all use the same protocols, only the connection to camera differs. I have Sony Godox flashes plus an AD 200 and when off camera, all work fine whether using the Sony trigger or Fuji trigger. (In fact, I believe you can even use both triggers with the flashes off camera and alternate shots between the two cameras without issue as long as everything is on the same channel.) I have the XPro trigger for my Sony bodies and just the X1 for my Fuji...but they work seamlessly.

As to using the Sony flash mounted on your Fuji, almost certainly not in TTL, though possibly in manual...I haven't tried with mine.

Note that Sony flashes have the center pin mounted further back than standard hotshoes, so they probably won't work on any other brand unless you shave off the stopper tabs at the back of the mounting foot. I know I can't use my Sony flashes on my Canon bodies, and Canon flashes will work (manually) on Sony, but since they're all made by Godox, they're all fully compatible wirelessly.

Here's a question...

I have Fuji version of Flashpoint XR2(Godox V1) speedlight, and Fuji version eVOLV200 Pro(Godox AD200 Pro).

I also have Fuji version Godox XT2 trigger.

I have used all 3 together and seperately on my Fuji GFX50R, works great.

I still have several, 3, or 4, Canon 580EXII speedlights.

Will the Canon version Godox X1R allow me to use the Canon speedlights with my Fuji?

I am sure it will be manual, but that would be okay.
