Godox Operation Tutorial: How to use AD100Pro

[@MrTanker10a]

I have bought the AD200 before the AD300. I absolutely love the AD300 Pro. And then, I have just bought the AD100 Pro and my days with a Speedlight for closeup and macros are over. The Modeling Lamp simply kills it!!! This thing is so small and easy to to pack for a Macro shoot outdoors and anywhere to tabletop. I have just discovered how easy the screw thread fittings work to attach to with my Gorilla Tri-Pods... AWESOMELY! 😎

[@yonnygranda]

Beautiful. I recently bought the ad300pro and am fascinated by the flash

[@austinpias5087]

Same here... 100 will much handy then v1

[@fotografertop9948]

why ad100 pro more expensive than the ad200 ?

[@airasajja8825]

agree right question! 100ws more expensive than 200ws... ?! thats funny

[@tugwilson]

Bit of a disappointment. At $299 I'd expect Stable Colour Temperature mode and the ability to use Godox Mount modifiers. Having to use the S2 bracket negated any size advantage the light has. Making it more expensive than the V1 is a puzzling decision the power difference is negligible in practice its only advantage over the V1 is the fan. If I use the V1 off camera I have 4g more weight and 70mm more length but I have a backup speedlight/trigger for free. Also does the S2 bracket obstruct the fan vent?

[@grayheet]

I was an early adopter of the ad200 as a matter of fact when it was released I bought it within the week, I have 2 of them love those flashes, took me through many a wedding. I recently bought the AD300 pro love that flash more than my 200's. However I cannot recommend this flash at the price of the AD200, especially when the 200 has so much flexibility.

[@vincentnavea6999]

I wish you do a version 2 which can be used with a power adapter

[@udithaimarshana5827]

Is this good for video?

[@lou73410]

Can we use with ac outlet?

[@EvgeniiEremin]

Can I connect a Godox AD100Pro flash through to synchronize with an iPhone camera and use it as an external flash?

[@vincentnavea6999]

Can i use the battery from v1?

[@HyperspeedMedia]

What is the power range of this ? 100ws?

[@th3317]

@GODOX Global Will the remote trigger works with Leica SL2 camera? Thanks

[@valetdecour]

Godox, you need a wireless link with all phone, I’d love to have a easy flash with my IPhone 12 Pro Max....

[@MrBianko]

iPhone no flash will help make good shots. such a feature of the camera in a smartphone and the logic of computational photography. sorry if I ruined your pink dreams.

[@valetdecour]

@@MrBianko sorry MrBananas, but we are in 2021 and phone make great picture, not like a canon R5 or a Sony A7R4. But my IPhone make better picture then my 2007 Panasonic camera! And a small flash HSS will be helpful! Go see what Profoto have for IPhone and look on KZbin what result they get!!! Pretty impressive!

[@MrBianko]

@@valetdecour Yes, and ponies with unicorns run around cheesy lawns too. Check out the experience of using Godox A1.

[@nihanfilms3589]

Which softbox is best ad 100pro?

[@samermoukadem8231]

Wow, AD100 Pro, I love this baby it looks cute, Bravo Godox Congratulations !!

[@LMActionsports]

Wow this cost more than ad200 and $50 less than the ad200 pro when not on sale. The Ad300 pro cost as much as the ad600b. I am a loyal Godox user, but I use the ad600bm, ad200, tt860ii, and 2 tt600’s. And I have learned you get just as much performance if the word “PRO” is not in the product name with you guys. I am more of get the most out of my dollar. And the ad100 is not for me. I hope it does good.

[@shadowyzman7078]

Exactly. The AD600BM is probably the best return on investment on a Godox light unless portability takes precedence. I got it on sale for $339. Cheaper than an AD200 Pro but 3X the power

[@LMActionsports]

@@shadowyzman7078 right! I picked mine up for $360 last year and it's been a game changer for any lighting situation. Paid $185 for my ad200. You can find great deals except if it has "Pro" in it's name.

[@shadowyzman7078]

@@LMActionsports y Yes. The pro markup is a bit insane. Sure the recycle time is better by half a second nd maybe but does it really matter to most shooters? Probably not. I'm surprised the AD600 pro costs about twice the price of a regular AD600. In very happy with the BM. Didn't even need TTL

[@LMActionsports]

@@shadowyzman7078 your right with maybe a half second faster with recycle times. I use the TTL to get a ballpark setting and press TCM on my X-Pro trigger and it switches the reading I just took in TTL into manual mode and shows you your last shot settings. And then I use manual mode for that part of the shoot. And I think I only used full power on the ad600 twice. It's a great light

[@martinmiller8275]

like most companies, Godox starts with a great product at a GREAT price and puts the other bullshit overpriced companies to shame. THEN they start to become those overpriced bullshit companies because they see dollar signs. The word PRO behind a light means very little to those who know what they are doing.

[@juhanironkainen]

I bought AD100pro and tested it with Godox X1 transmitter (CanonR6) and found that the TTL FEC control (+-3 stops) don't work. After that the TTL FEC control didn't work with my ohter Godox flashes (AD400 pro and TT685). Is there any solution for that matter?

[@jacksonjackson9474]

I love that Godox pushes for innovation while undercutting the competition. But as they slowly strive to become industry leaders, I'm nervous that they will become just like the Bowens brand (RIP), or the over-priced Profoto brand. This strobe is a very nice piece of gear, but let's not act as if the price wouldn't have been much lower back when they first started manufacturing gems like this. Godox, we love you. Please don't get greedy and price us hobbyist out of the game.

[@datamedicpr]

How can I use this on a mobile device like iPhone 12

[@junger613]

What is the difference between the v1 and this ?

[@caleidoo]

I have never undertood the hype or point of the V1. It's less powerful than the way cheaper V860ii or other top speedlight from Nikon or Canon. The only advantage it has, is a soft roll-off of the light. But I never use flash straight into a subject. And if I do, it's just to subtle lighten up shadows on a sunny day. A fill light, where you can't even notice the light, let alone a soft round fall-off. Now, for practical use, this AD100 has more use and can work along with other dedicated Godox studio lights. Or use a V860ii.

[@ChrisM-yq2pq]

Hot shoe

[@__jairomartinez__]

When will be available in the EU? I am looking for such portable light.

[@RyanJAO]

why not buying V1 ???

[@marcelgavrila5474]

Hi, I have AD100Pro, 3pcs ! With all i have a problem, after 4-5 shoots, all continuos flash light start and never shutdown. I must do manual. I have Godox X1 and Godox XPro transmiter, with both i have same problem. What can i do to dezactivate continuos light when i need and i use flash?

[@GilbertTV]

well done godox... another winner

[@nightdonutstudio]

Is 100w still powerful than a top of line speedlight?

[@xiaoliangwang3448]

yes

[@ppsac1]

I think the v1 and the v860ii is something like 70ish ws, so it’s only marginally more powerful it seems...

[@nightdonutstudio]

@@ppsac1 I see. About 1/3 stop brighter.

[@vinnunani3989]

Look like profotob10 but we need more output in medium price

[@MrTanker10a]

Excellent video! Because, I could not change the intensity of the Modeling lamp...Duhh! Otherwise, the GoDox products work "As Advertised"! 💕

[@venuscrush1]

What is the price of the flash

[@GODOXGlobal]

Hi Anurag Bindal, the price of AD100Pro is 299USD.

[@МаксПав-й4ь]

Why do you need this flash when there is an ad200 for the same price? 100 watts of power is not much more than V1, but it is light, but you still have to carry the S2 bracket with you. I do not understand, a waste of money, it is better to add 150 dollars and immediately take ad300 or buy ad200 for the same money ...

[@manoharmgr8235]

Very useful video , I learned lot from it, looking forward more videos like this keep it up good work, R.manohar , india,chennai

[@AdamKozak100]

how many watts of power

[@veselinvasilev9362]

Thank you!

[@sattamg.h1506]

I wish if it’s work with mobile

[@macbaar]

Where is the benefit of this flash?

[@jlwilliams]

It can mount on a light stand or clamp without extra accessories, and it is more compact than the V1 or AD200. It will be excellent for supplementing the ambient light in a scene, so editorial and real-estate photographers should like it. If you are looking for something to use with a soft box or beauty dish, you probably will be happier with one of the larger Godox flashes that has more power and a built-in accessory mount.

[@dwisetyoaji5007]

I need more budget friendly flash like SK or MS

[@sunphotography2863]

India price

[@jeveetsoibam]

Better go for the V1 imo

[@nightdonutstudio]

$249 is a more reasonable price. You just can not price it same as ad200. Which is double the power.

[@shadowyzman7078]

Cool design but honestly that level of power for $299..seriously? You can get an AD200 or an AD600BM for not much more.

[@bhaipo89]

V1 is modified as AD100 pro.... so i love to use my V1.

[@ElPescadoMan]

How much?

[@GODOXGlobal]

Hi Jhoel Pixs, the price of AD100Pro is 299USD.

[@badhabit714]

@@GODOXGlobal Why?

[@FotogramaNi]

Wow this cost more than ad200 and $50 less than the ad200 pro when not on sale.

[@papsny]

Why would I buy this when the AD200 can give me 200W (At a cheaper price) + I can do 2x AD200 with a AD-B2 adapter to give me 400W. This AD100 Pro is at 100W max for $299. The v860 or V1 can do the same thing plus I can mount them on a camera if needed at a lower cost than the AD100 Pro's price tag of $299.

[@iamoodboard]

Does not work with mobile phones ... GODOX still in the past century

[@iamoodboard]

@They Caged Non "Serious photographers" are less than 0.001% of the population, 5 billion smartphones with cameras are sold per year, do you understand where the market is going? Or do you prefer to live in the last century too?

[@iamoodboard]

@They Caged Non You are a romantic! I am very happy that there are people like you! Like the postmen watching how they invent Gmail. I guess your instagran should show how "professional" you are, please let me see your "brilliant" work, I'll leave you mine: jcgomezpenagos and yes: Besides photography I also do an impressive 3D and retouch, I hope your work is much more amazing since it uses a "bigger sensor" Don't forget to send me your instagram username, I'm waiting to see what you can do with your "right tool"

[@iamoodboard]

@They Caged Non I am so excited to see what you can do with your "right tool" Mr professional lighting... please don't make me wait any longer!!

[@iamoodboard]

@They Caged Non "Real photographers using real cameras" ... nice message from someone who bought a full frame and takes pictures of landscapes, kittens or friends weddings. I remind you that it was you who questioned my work by insinuating that you belonged to the race of professionals who use "right tool" and that "people like me are messing around with these phones" What you call a "computerized finish" is the result of learning Zbrush, Maya, Photoshop and other skills that from what I see you are not willing to add to your own skills. You only go around there presuming that you are a "professional" because you have a nice camera. But you have a lot to learn if you wants to stand out in a world where people with their mobiles make better and better images. Better photos than you. But don't worry, you can learn it on my youtube channel if you at least know a second language like Spanish.

[@jlwilliams]

I don't think it's unreasonable to wish for a flash that would work with phones, but almost everybody else is in the past century too. The only studio flash I know of that works with mobile phones is the very expensive Profoto one, and even that has limitations on what phones will work with it. Actually, Godox tried to do it before Profoto with its M1 (which contained a tiny flash and a Bluetooth interface for other Godox flashes, and worked with a special Godox camera app.) I had an M1, and it sort of worked with my phone, but it was very limited, mostly because phone cams have serious “rolling shutter” issues (meaning the flash would expose only part of the frame) and because the phone couldn't stop down its lens enough or reduce its ISO setting enough to balance flash with ambient light. I would love to know the technical side of how Profoto makes it work... I suspect their flash uses special timing circuitry, which would drive up the price beyond what most Godox customers would want to pay. It would be great if Godox came up with a cost-effective solution, but now that they are offering so many LED lights (some of which have a “high intensity” mode for still photography) I suspect they would rather that people use those for phone photography.

[@ChrisM-yq2pq]

I like how the light bulb sticks out on AD300. This just looks like a repackaged V1

[@y0utube5uxx]

Recessed tube = no, thank you. The dome is not an option.

[@ChrisM-yq2pq]

Yes recessed tube makes this more V1 light than AD300 light or AD400. AD 400 puts out a more even cleaner light because of the tube sticking out

[@HaimGreen]

Need one ...

[@badhabit714]

No you dont.

[@gamertizatali3219]

Okay Godox, listen up, please don't fu*k things up with your pricing, I got the ad200 pro for about $250 on sale, I have two speed lights and they will last for 2 years or so, bring the price of the ad100 pro to a reasonable $200 so I may consider it in two years. Thank you.

[@martinmiller8275]

godox is really reaching now...they are just vomiting out flashes with pro behind the name and charging more. Ill stick with my ad200 mounted on and s bracket.

[@puck528co]

Makes no sense in the Godox lineup.

[@apamacam4838]

@Mattias S I totally agreed. 100Ws is such a small (not even a full stop) jumped from the TT860Vii/V1/685 series. And also to price it the same as Ad200 that has double it's power as well as functionality (came with 2 types of head) really baffled me.

[@NiranjanNanda]

Godox needs to improve on - Mobile phone app (I can't trigger the flash from phone, I can only adjust the power output). - Firmware update (I still can't update my AD200 PRO using a Mac). Adorama is also not putting any effort around this. I guess they don't see any financial benefit in maintaining the whole system (hardware, software, integration etc), which is why their iOS app is a crap and their firmware update system is no more than a trash.

[@ChrisM-yq2pq]

They have a product that you can use with your phone that allows you to trigger other flashes. It’s 69 dollars

[@NiranjanNanda]

@@ChrisM-yq2pq I have that :). I am able to connect my flashes to their iOS app, but could not trigger them. I can only change the power output and some settings, but can't trigger the flashes.

[@rich028-W]

Godox, stop using TTL in all your flashes! Photographers don't need TTL! You need a device with a separate head, with a separate power supply (replaceable, with different batteries, different capacities). The flash lamp must be outside the device housing! Get closer to the focus of the reflector! We need two inexpensive and reliable devices for 400-600-800 and 100-300 joules! From 1/1 to 1/128 and better to 1/256! Make such devices!
