Thank you! Yes, you are right. That is definitely a plus. But the problem is, that increases the price of the setup and then you're actually at the V860III. That's why I thought it's not particularly one of the main features to look out for.

Impeccable timing! I was just shopping for my first speedlight. Thankful that KZbin suggested your video! I'm interested between the V860III and the V1, because I prefer ion battery with faster recycling time. However, I'm still not sure which one would be better for me... I'm interested if you want to make a video that explain advantages and disadvantages the V1 😄
@wolfamri
@wolfamri 2 жыл бұрын
Thank you! It seems my subscribers are not really ready for a speedlight comparison yet 😁. So I might do that a little later. However, the only real difference is the round head. The advantage is the light spread and that you can easier mount some small accessories. The disadvantage is, that even for adding a bounce card, you need a separate tool rather than having it built in. And obviously the reach, because the V860III has the same head as the TT685II.

Thank you for this great comparison review ! I'm going to buy the TT685 because I'm not much of a heavy duty flash user so I don't mind at all the recycle time and I love the ability to pop a 4-pack of AA batteries whenever I need. And by the way : recycle time is not so much about the battery's voltage and more about its ability to maintain that voltage at high current draw. And alkaline batteries have a serious handicap on this issue due to their huge internal resistance : did you test with alkaline or NiMH AA batteries ? With a good NiMH brand the recycle time should get much better !

@@wolfamri , yes, I know… But the question is should I invest rather into an ad200(pro) or a common on-camera flash would be OK (again, the natural look is absolutely important for me!)… And then, even if I’m pretty demanding regarding image quality, I don’t think I would use this equipment very often, only during family events (for that reason I’m not really considering to buy the ad400) and the question here is if a simple flash would be enough then which one: with a dedicated battery or with a AA battery set?
@wolfamri
@wolfamri 2 жыл бұрын
Vladislav, that's a tough question. When talking about family events: the bigger the group will get, the further away the flash has to be from the subjects to not be in the frame. And the further away it will be, the more light you will lose. Also: if you shoot outdoors and want to use HSS, you'll lose even more light to that function. That might be important when you shoot in bright sunlight. If you get into the shade, or later in the day or even evening, you need much less power because you don't have to compete with the sunlight. You see, there are many variables in this game. If you can afford it and if you want to enjoy it, then I'd go with a bigger one. Smaller ones always mean making compromises, which is not always enjoyable if you understand what I mean. I do plan a video series comparing the output of the flash for different scenarios, where I want to make some measurements to tell everyone exactly what it takes and what you can do with different lights. But that will take quite a bit more time. The closest I have seen in this regard on youtube was a test done by Rob Hall regarding "overpowering the sun" perhaps that video helps understand a bit: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h53PkmCrj8p-fMU

mistake in the comparison table tt350 has 2 AA batteries not 4. I own both tt685 and tt350 on Sony i mostly prefer the tt350 because it is smaller and lighter. Also guide number of 30 with the iso capability of the A7 iv is plenty enough. it is true the interface is a bit less user friendly but still manageable. the main thing i struggled with godox flash is to have the trigger paired with the X2T. I had to look it up. the other thing is there is a way to get square flash like tt685 with same modifier than round like V1 using the sr1 adapter. it's the only brand i have seen making so much compatibility. Also if you change camera brand you can still use their flash with the remote trigger. the tt350 can have an ID on the channel but i think it is more limited. also the number of channels is more limited. The TT350 can do 3 groups but i think the full flashes like TT685 can do 5 groups and not 4. That said most flash system stop at 3 groups.

Thanks for the hint on the typo, Rogan. I immediately changed that. Regarding the ID. That was the info I found on the web. Can you tell me more about that? How many ID options does it have? I totally agree, I have become a fan of Godox. Which one do you have, the TT685II or the TT685 - the new one really has a better menu system from my research. Not that it is needed, but it's a big plus for people who don't use it that often.

i have the tt685II my decision was on the fast locking. there are also few functions more like tranfering the last TTL setting to manual setting to get consistent shots. The TT350 i have bought it for macro originally because it is smaller i can get the light better diffused with the 85mm of laowa, which also small. The fact that it uses only 2 batteries i love it because if i go out with a box of 4 i can either use the trigger or recharge.
@roganthoerson1909
@roganthoerson1909 2 жыл бұрын
the difference between the tt350 and tt685-2 is that the screen is smaller so it doesn't write full words in the menues, and there are more buttons on the tt685 so one is dedicated to go in the menu for instance where you need to press long on the tt350 but everything is labeled. So you can't get really lost. You also have less features and options like the bip sound so less things to tweak in the menus.

I love small flashes. The power output really isn't all that different in real world use. But the recycle times can be quite different - particularly when using only two batteries.

(Macro, portrait etc) Stillt haven’t seen a picture comparing real world images of both. Do by example people look the same if you use a softbox like in 6:45 with both flashes? Can’t decide

In a softbox it doesn't matter which one of the two. And for most other things it doesn't matter much either - except for when you need a more even spread - which you hardly do. The really big difference is the battery between these two. If you ever need to shoot a series of consecutive flashes, that will easily pay off. Have a look at the V860III - that's the best of both worlds IMO. Check out my godox speedlight comparison page if you haven't yet: godox-comparison.com/

Hi I recently got Nikon 6ii and add the Godox 860iii-n. It took a good while to figure out why 860iii was not firing (silent mode which I like was enabled on the camera). I got some of the flash functions on the camera to work but Flash Controls is still gray out. The flash is to get rid of the shadows but indoor and outdoor. Is HHS and the rest of the control plug and play or requires setup?

Hi! I’m afraid I’m not familiar with Nikon, but it should be plug and play. But you usually have to control third party tools on the flash, not on the cam.

As someone who would mostly use flashes for events - I would NEVER EVER EVER want the settings to change just by turning the dial. That would be the biggest nightmare ever.

@wolfamri Жыл бұрын
Thank you for your feedback, Miguel. But wouldn’t it be great to have the option? By now I use even more different speedlights and triggers. Some would change just turning the dials, others would not. I absolutely prefer the first, just like I prefer a dedicated dial for exposure compensation or a separate one for aperture, shutter speed and ISO. But I also appreciate that you don’t. A simple setting in the menu would allow both of us to work with our preferred method. 😉

Stuart, it depends a bit on your budget. Another option is the MF12, which I lately use a lot (much more expensive though if you go with more than one unit). What is a must have in my opinion is a diffusor, like the pope shield, cygnustech, etc. Have you seen my video of the pope shield? Other than that, I'd probably go with the V860III or the V350 (the small one that many macro photographers use to keep the bulk down).

i just want a flash especially a cheap one at that lol to start taking pictures at night and hope my pictures come out better without the shadow. i just want the flash to work when i press the shutter button and i take the picture. so of course i want the flash to be automatic so all i have to do is point and shoot so this is the only flash i need right
@wolfamri
@wolfamri 2 жыл бұрын
Yes and no. The auto modes of all flashes (TTL) need some requirements to be met. One being that your subject is filling at least 1/3 of the frame, otherwise it will also measure the background that will not get a lot of light from the flash and therefore over expose your subject. Cameras are getting better at this, but it’s not a thing that always works. Plus: using flash, the camera will often under expose the background if you don’t adjust your settings or e.g. use night portrait mode in some cameras. I hope that helps 😉.

Not always. TTL totally has its use, so to aperture and shutter priority, particularly when light changes often and quickly. I just got the impression that you were hoping that a flash with TTL would always give you perfect results and I wanted to avid disappointment 😉.

I’Thanks for your comment, but I’m not sure I understand. Yes, every manufacturer has its proprietary TTL protocol and hot shoe, so you need to get the speedlight dedicated to your camera brand to make TTL and other features like HSS work.
