XPLOR 400 Pro or 600 Pro - Pros & Cons of both

[@jose2g]

I think the whole AD LINE UP NEEDS AN UPDATE, hopefully the AD600 pro would be perfect

[@GilbertTV]

I have the AD400pro & the ADs65 godox mount modifier & grid & its fantastic , highly recommend the godox mount softboxes

[@darkreigncometh]

I have the AD400 Pro and I think it's perfect for me. ❤

[@jacky2152]

Can you make a comparison on "overpowering the sun"? Can you still able to do it with a reflector and the AD400 Pro? Can you make a video showing what situations you can and can't do with the 400? Best is to use the AD100, 200 pro, 400 pro, and 600 pro to show which light you would use in different situations and show when their powers are starting to lack.

Yeah I've been meaning to make a video like this. I'll try to make it this month.

[@JerryC25]

Keep up the good work brother. Just followed you on the gram. Amazing work.

[@fjhphoto]

Thank you!🙏🏻

[@benmintz2877]

Hi there, thank you for sharing your awesome work, I learn a lot from you. I have a question: I'm not sure if I should get the 400W/S or 600W/S ? I understand that the 600 pro might be too strong even at lowest level for small studio work... is that true? Should I get the 400 pro for my small studio and the rest of the setups I might need because the 600 pro is too big for small studio work? I'm interested in 2 strobes for my work just not sure which output to go for... Thanks.

Make a video comparing how they behave with the sun 600pro vs 400pro

[@fjhphoto]

Good idea!😊

[@_Eye_Of_Ry]

@@canilalphahusky795 I have both & I literally just did a shoot at 5pm here in Phoenix. I can honestly say the 600pro out performs the 400pro in the sun. The 400pro has harsher light . The 600pro makes the skin look softer

[@justinmcq78]

Just pulled the trigger and got an open box AD600pro from bnh for $500 after taxes. The kicker was the ad400pro was $20 more. I’m not sure why that is. Adorama has them on sale (xplor600pro) for around $609 or so if anyone’s looking.

[@Christos_Drosos]

i will use the 400pro and if its like not enough i will raise my ISO a bit higher so it gets brightened. I found it very usefull that video and +1 sub !!

[@ketsiaplaza1976]

Is the AD400 pro ONLY good for portraits ? Or is good for group pictures weddings events?

[@mooksdfe]

PetaPixel did a comparison of Godox lights, look it up using the "Comparing the Max Power of Godox Strobes, Speedlites, and LEDs" as a search string. According to themeasurements they performed, the AD400 Pro doesn't seem to be powerful enough for large group shots.

[@microminstrel]

are you saying the 440 can't shoot in manual mode?

[@felm.974]

Can they be connected to the electric outlet and take pictures with them connected? Thanks in advance.

[@fjhphoto]

Yup, both have AC adapters to allow that. 400's AC adapter - adorama.rfvk.net/4Pm5LZ 600's AC adapter - adorama.rfvk.net/BW3E9

[@felm.974]

@@fjhphoto I appreciate it, thank you brother! :)

[@caleb361]

Im contemplating getting the AD600BM considering is cheaper than both the 400 and 600 pro.. weight isn't really an option. Would you recommend it?

[@fjhphoto]

Yes I would recommend both actually. I would say that if you don't care for the modeling lamp or those Godox mount modifiers the 400 can use then the AD600BM will be a great light for you.😊

[@crxgator]

What light stand are you using for the 400 (for on location)?

[@charminbaer2323]

I have the 400 Pro, willing to trade it for a 300 Pro.

[@Soul_Visuals_Photography]

The 300 is all you need for sure.

[@benmintz2877]

Can you explain why? I don't know if I should go for 300W/S or 400W/S... thanks.

[@charminbaer2323]

@@benmintz2877 because I want the smaller light, even if it’s less powerful.

[@Soul_Visuals_Photography]

@@benmintz2877 300 is really all you need but you can’t go wrong with a 400. I use two AD200 pros all the time. Sometimes I use them in tandem with the b2a2 adaptor.

[@Isaypreach]

Im literally trading my ad600 for ad400. Ive literally on used my 600 like 3 or 4x and Im not a fan of the size and weight of it.

[@ricorozierr1014]

What transmitter you recommend for the 400 pro

[@MartinV.]

Great video!

[@The_PlagueDoctor]

The depth of field seems a bit shallow

[@ryanalejos9557]

Nice vid 😁👍
