Question..I bought the Flashpoint 300 pro. and love it, but cant fire it at the lowest setting of 1/256 with my on camera transmitter it wont go lower than 1/128 ?? any way to shoot it at 1/256 ??

[@johnwoodside8714]

Cool, I want one. When is it on sale

[@37iiu7]

I bought the same flash and the same trigger and could not connect them together .. Is there any help?

[@filippofior3722]

THANK YOU GUYS!!!

[@opqrst7]

Currently, there is no spare battery (VB30) sold separately for AD300pro. Is the Godox VB29 battery (for AD200), that seems to fit, usable on AD300pro? Is there a difference in use or performance?

[@juanisaiasmalvinomerlo4039]

Amazing

[@flixxfotojenslindner]

Cool stuff! Looks like my next flash... :-)

[@TMIDD]

I've done a few photoshoots on my channel with this flash and I love it!

[@0730Media]

I have one of these and it’s awesome

[@TMIDD]

Agreed I love using this for the photography on my channel esp the modeling lamp is so helpful

[@SAI_N_SAI]

NEW AD300 Pro!!!SUPPORT!

[@andreyrossalevphotographer1746]

Looks cool! It's closer to one of the best AD360ii

[@tomhughes5123]

totally . but a smaller size 👍👍 and no dangly battery .which im ok with with my 360 .

[@andersontorressaavedra739]

Super genial ...

[@audevivas3279]

hola puedo obtener el manual español del sk 300ii por favor?

[@cocobird589]

Wich size softbox better for ad300

[@dpfreedman]

Very nice but seems awfully expensive relative to the rest of the Godox line. One AD300Pro or two AD200s? Approximately the same price and in either case an "S" type bracket is required to use Bowens mount accessories. Differing capabilities to be sure but still a consideration (for me). The variable color temp LED will seal the deal for many, I'm sure. Last Black Friday I saw the AD400Pro listed for $419. Still kicking myself for passing on that deal :-(

[@domenicoavizzano8841]

Hi! I want ask you GODOX if you konw that ITTL mode of V860II and V1 flash DOESN'T WORK on NIKON D780!.. Please solve this HUGE problem!.. Do you have some firmware for GODOX V860 II and GODOX V1 for Nikon D780, because they perfectly work on older Nikon, but they don't instead on Nikon D780. Here's the problem who has each Nikon D780's owner : iTTL doesn't absolutely work well on the 780, but it perfectly does on an older Nikon' s camera.. Can you do anything trough some firmware, please!? I'm a great client Godox and I think my Godox flash in general work perfectly and I don't want change them. Thank you! D.

How do we get to the 1/10000 flash power?

[@mrinmaysaha3879]

how much it cost?

[@SterlingHyde]

just got 2. worth itttttttttttttttttttt

[@marcinadamiak6561]

Nikon z 6 ii compatible?

[@arunmohan77]

I think it's very interesting and advantage product sir. If we can used s bracket and X1 trigger for this product sir ? Because already have it sir

[@vonpotatostein]

It is compatible with the X triggers (X1, X2 and X Pro), as for the bracket you need the Godox S2 bracket. Hope this helps!!!

[@longliveclassicmusic]

Regular S bracket is a no. It's the S2 bracket it works with.

[@RuiSilveiraPhoto]

Want two of these on my gear!

[@TMIDD]

I've done a few photoshoots on my channel with this flash and I love it!

[@MrStefzor]

Lencarta have this listed in the UK/EU. £464.99. They're Godox's only Official UK Repair Centre so may be worth getting it from them.

[@tomhughes5123]

cheers bud .pixapro will do it soon too . UK company just rebranded godox , 24 hour delivery .

[@MrStefzor]

@@tomhughes5123 Oh well, whatever you prefer. I prefer the proper branded Godox :)

[@tomhughes5123]

@@MrStefzor good oh , same product , iv used pixapro gear for ages full guarantees fast no fuss turnaround , godox pixapro theres another half dozen names worldwide for the same products .

[@MrStefzor]

​@@tomhughes5123 Yes I'm well familiar with them as with Adorama's Flashpoint in the USA, etc. I haven't found the service to be any different personally, both are very good! I just personally prefer the straight Godox brand as I find it quite hard to find outside China that isn't a grey market. With Lencarta being the official UK Repair centre it's nice to know it's Godox branded and backed by Godox directly. Either way, they all do the same thing and are fantastic products!

[@shinobizuken]

What one works with leica q?

[@rahulmodiwale4856]

Good

[@BleekRocafella]

What’s the price?

[@yuhomon]

Looks good - my only concern is the modelling light, it's significantly less powerful than on AD400 (12W vs 30W).

[@Avat6]

Thankyou for pointing the difference .

[@tomhughes5123]

yeah il have a few for the size , the modelling light is weak but its only going to be used as a guide . for out of the way locations . where a decent little LED .. it doesnt take long to get used to the equipment

[@Avat6]

@@tomhughes5123 yeah perfect size for sure. But more value to buy 400pro for someone working indoors modelling lamp brightness is critical .

[@tomhughes5123]

@@Avat6 yes im more concerned about the size and weight for getting my kit about on a motorbike , i can get my d850 and three lenses in one pannier .so my lighting with collapsible softbox brolly and small reflector dishes in the other , ha ha i know it sounds limiting but i can get anywhere off the beaten track this way . and rough it for months , ☺☺ . given enough batteries , andcstill have room for my 70l rucksack 😃

[@tomhughes5123]

cheers buddy , using flash for a few years , iv never had anything with a modeling light , at most iv walked around the scene with a wide LED torch to get an idea what im lighting up , and a basic direction from what to set up in

[@FotoFilmEvents]

Cool I need two of these What about the weight?

[@tomhughes5123]

1.5 kg half the weight of most ..may be little lighter but its tiny

[@fredyfotografo8702]

How can be update firmware ad300

[@abcryptonationbello470]

Can it charge as i use it in a studio?

[@IMPACTPHOTOSTUDIO]

No

[@Jarrodpimental]

Where is the spec sheet ?

[@HoniSoitQuiMalPense]

Do you make an Elinchrom bayonet adapter for it?

[@runcmd1419]

They do.

[@Chapa324]

Has this been released yet? I cant find one and i cant find a release date

[@TMIDD]

@Michelle Morales hopefully you have found it by now but i got mine from canada maybe 4 months ago now

[@afstock]

Bagus ini,, cakep.. jadi pengin beli

[@VaughnDoyle]

I want to know if the color temperature is visible in the flash.

[@GODOXGlobal]

Dear Vaughn Doyle , yes, it is visible in the flash.

[@tomhughes5123]

its changeable from + - 100 k cool or warm

[@erickbueza]

This is no doubt a reliable flash but to use it outdoor daily with an ambient temp of 38-40deg as in the case of mid east I'm afraid the flash won't last long. On my recent shoot after awhile it smells something is burning inside. Maybe use two of it instead of one so power can be set a stop less. My goal btw when using flash outdoor is over powet or under expose the ambient light.

[@philphotograph3564]

In pilot lamp mode at 100% , how many battery life ? ( for video for example )

[@tomhughes5123]

350 - 500 flashes ( more in manual setting on half then 1/4 power and more on 8th power ) if you have fast lenses better still

[@philipdeshayes9372]

I dream of an AC adapter for Ad300 /AD200 or a battery charging system like on smarthphone. Pouvoir charger le flash et faire un shooting en même temps.

[@flixxfotojenslindner]

Keep on dreaming... ;-)

[@vernon_4411]

Can it directly be powered by AC power?

[@TMIDD]

I wish that would be nice right! The battery does last a nice amount of time though.

[@tomhughes5123]

i have no problems with 12 w modeling light ..i know from night time excursions a 3w led light is blinding at 50m + im just no looking to replace my mint pixapro 360 pro .its 3600w of brilliance , iv never used it on full power the battery lasts a ridiculous length of time ,

[@TMIDD]

good point that 360 watts is a nice bit of power and your right the modeling lamp is wonderful on the ad300 pro I made a few videos on my channel at night where it was very helpful.

[@kagermanov1405]

Покупаю )

[@joseangel_18lm70]

I selected the hhs on my Sony and my ad300pro and I still getting the curtain on the picture after I pass 1/200sec

[@GODOXGlobal]

Could you please tell me what camera you own? Thanks. Some cameras that are recently launched may not be compatible with our AD300Pro.

[@lamasteve6905]

Best Yet ! Direct sales always the best ! Need warehouse and service desk, you are welcome in California ! We are closest to China ;-)

[@lamasteve6905]

Is that the same battery as the AD200 ?

[@lamasteve6905]

Looks like Profoto didn’t keep up the sales agreement. Marketing companies have to sell or the get passed by ! Great to see Godox Direct, Mr. Ma will be proud !

[@tomhughes5123]

ahhh so its similar power higher than the ad200 pro and almost as high as the ad360ii , i like my 360ii

[@dalesteven1]

Cost?

[@charlesnetzler2262]

Whats difference to Ad600?

[@VaughnDoyle]

ad600 is twice as powerful, 100 to 300 dollars more expensive, and doesn't have a modeling light with color temperature control.

[@GilbertTV]

If you want me to test if for you , Im based in UK .. looks fantastic..my key interest is using it on my street night model shoots using the bi-colour constant light as well as flash

[@RS5Nola]

Did a Pre-Order on Adorama that stated "You may place this on order now and it will be shipped on 04/16/2020. We do not charge your card until we actually ship the item to you." However, now it's stating "Partially Backordered". Guess Pre-Ordering wasn't a great choice.

[@tomhughes5123]

it would cost a bomb in taxs to the uk . i got my daughter a neps1 eyepiece for £28 there was a £20 import duty on it . smaller and lighter than a matchbox . SO not good at the moment .

[@OCREATIVE]

wish list :)

[@TMIDD]

yeah I had to pinch the bank to really say do I need this but it has been a great addition for making content on my page

[@Benjamin_Jehne]

300Ws is powerful?

[@TMIDD]

I was able to get nice shots with the 300ws during full sunlight so its plenty power

[@dysonvirtudez1903]

cool but it looks like doesn't it a friendly interface set up.

[@dayeah765caoni3]

Amateur, walk away

[@curtiswrigley]

I always wear white gloves to turn my flash.

[@kurtlindner]

Availability?

[@TMIDD]

I've done a few photoshoots on my channel with this flash and I love it!

[@tomhughes5123]

guide number please , nobody mentions this on the reviews . just that its better than the 200. is it a match for the much more powerfull ad 360ii

[@tomhughes5123]

@Chris yes course it is but metered correctly in manual lasts a heck of a lot longer .. instead of full flash and have your camera automatically correct exposure ...the manual way you use 1/8th - 1 /16th the power . .. the ad 360 gets over a thousand flashes on mine with the Y cable

[@sandhyavision2090]

How much is this....

[@GODOXGlobal]

It is 499USD:)

[@raulacevedo-esteves9493]

Good flash, fix the stupid battery reset problem. If you leave the battery without charge it will go to sleep and you have to crack open the battery to fix it. Serious flaw for a $69 battery.

[@chazM6116]

not sure why you need this with AD400 and AD200 1/2 stop difference over the AD200 True the AD200 has no modelling light BUT outdoor there no need for one as you’ll not see it, if you need a modelling light you can use the AD-B2 ALSO not a Bowen mount so all your modifiers will not fit. WHY?

[@user-vy8jn9mc6g]

I have an AD200 and I think that AD300 is a nice addition to it. They have the same battery. For sunny days AD300 will give half a stop more light and it'll recycle twice faster than AD200 in it's power range. And you are not limited to shooting outside cause you have modelling light (you can also mix this modelling light to lamps inside cause you can always choose the right color temperature). And it'll weight the same as AD200 + bowens mount. The weight of AD300PRO is 1.25 KG and AD400PRO weights 2.1 KG. I think I'll add it to my AD200. As a bonus I'll have a portable fill/key light combo.

Why always manufacturers have such possibilities and always fail to make simple things that matter. In the whole world High Speed Sync is simply HSS , but China engineer put flash symbol + H , you tell me, how clever is this. IT IS STUPID!!!!

[@whynotmi]

why to choose 1/x scale for power when professional brands use 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -5 - 7 - 8 .... with decimal adjustment or w/s or joules ... So the word Pro is overrated on this product

[@kimeunsoo1807]

holy confucius. i understand you guys are a chinese company, but did you really have to use a guy w/ dry cleaner accent to narrate your video? broken english makes your product look prone to breakage. spend some dollars, hire a guy w/ fancy slick european accent like that apple guy. now that’s a valuable marketing advice you won’t find digging through fortune cookies.
