Not sure it was mentioned but for those who worry about accidentally changing settings you can hold the MODE button for 2 sec. and it will lock all settings. To unlock hold the MODE button again.

As many have stated in comments : The ID function is most likely an additional layer for the flash to have a specific line of communication to equipment, so that two users could coexist on a single channel. This will likely be added to their other products through firmware. Additionally - I got the TCM function backwards, it is far more useful. You can use the TCM function after any TTL shot. This means you can shoot multiple times, as soon as you are satisfied with the result, you can hit the TCM function, and it will then convert your TTL to manual. So you don't have to pre-emptively choose TCM before your first photo!

Hi, thanks for all the great info on everything Godox. I do have a problem with the TCM function, and several people have mentioned it, where it does not convert the light power accurately at all, but grossly underexposes compared to TTL. Any ideas as to why this happens and what I could be doing wrong? Many thanks!

Thanks for the video, Rob. Just a small correction regarding the SHOOT menu: Single person icon is for sending the power levels only when you actually set them, Multiple persons icon is for sending the power levels before each shot you take, and the APP mode is for making the trigger just a dumb trigger, since the power levels are set via the app.

Robert Hall Photography i mean for example you are using 1/8 power then you want to increase it to 1/4 power, dial it to get 1/4 reading highlighted on trigger then must press set, otherwise you think you’re using 1/4 power already but still 1/8 being fired by flash because you didn’t press set but in the trigger shows 1/4 still highlighted. Was not pressing set also before but i saw it from one youtuber that you need to press set then he is right after i tried it actual test. Check it by yourself or maybe i’m saying differently from topic or maybe i’m wrong in some way.

The ID function exists on all of their units I believe, XT-1 has it in func 11. Basically it's a Wireless ID, which if you set it will only trigger units using the same ID. You can consider it similar to a password in combination with the Channel. I doubt it's highly secure, I'm sure if you sniff the 2.4gHz channel you can figure out what someone is using. But it adds a little complexity and reduces chances you will accidentally trigger some other persons Godox units, and vice versa. I personally set a Wireless ID and Channel that are not the default, and should never run into issues theoretically, even though the chance was slim on defaults.

exactly, if you have another photographer using same set up as yours but not with you, just set an ID (and for your 2nd shooter) and when you fire, the other dude's flash won't and the other guys apart from yourself and your 2nd/3rd shooters (if you have them) your flashes won't fire unless you actually trigger them. Chances though of that happening, especially at a wedding so remote as I don't bother.

Thnx for all your Videos on Godox, if you aren't being treated by them you should be !!! I have been using Neewer flashes and triggers with my Sony A7's & so far they have been brilliant, no complaints. A new flash came out, the NW630, HSS, TTL, 2.4G etc, I bought one. It doesn't work with the N1Ts (copy of the X1Ts) ! So I asked Neewer the question, Oh no this is a new flash, needs new trigger ! Back on ebay for you... Now bought TT685(S) for my A7 series and TT685(C) for my 5Diii set up. I have had to wait until today (my birthday) for the X pro(s) trigger... It is brilliant ! not only does it fire my Sony TT685, it fires my Canon TT685, so I have two flashes for my Sony. Hang on, Neewer is just rebranded Godox ( * Bright idea ) OMG, it fires my Neewer NW880s & my el cheepo Neewer NW865s manual flash. Next stop ebay, get an xpro for the Canon range of cameras - Loving this even tho not been out of box for more than 5 minutes

Multi mode is to do with strobe effect, it's in the X1 as well. You tell the flash hous many flashes and at what speed to strobe, used for creative effect in longer exposures to catch movement . So maybe you want 20 pops over a 2 second exposure, you tell it 10 at the rate of 5 per second etc. The ID is so that if more than one photographer is on a specific radio channel, they can have different ID so as not to trigger each other's units

I know what stroboscopic mode is. Thats built in outside of the custom functions. The ID stood out because it's not on anything else, so it looks like this will be added via firmware for other products / future products. The multi I referenced in custom functions is indeed designed to help you control how it behaves when multiple photographers/cameras are triggering the same group of lights.

The fact that AF assist doesn't apply to continuous focus makes NO sense to me. I am sure it's not isolated to this particular unit. However, why can't the AF assist just turn on when your focus system turns on. As in when the continuous focus is used - the AF assist SHOULD turn on as long as your focus button is depressed and in turn helping the camera focus in low light. That is the point of having it - it should apply to any focus mode you use. It happens BEFORE the camera actually locks on focus so it shouldn't matter. ANYWAY - fantastic video as always Robert - your reviews and product run-throughs are the best out there. Always full of detail and pros and cons from the real world. That is what we need !! Thanks for all of your work.

Af-c is designed to constantly track focus as long as the button is being held, while Capture is at any point. How could it accurately know when to anticipate your image capture and turn off the AF-assist beam. It might work if you have the focus hold on it’s longest setting but even then you are talking about millisecond gaps to shoot during. There’s simply no way for it to avoid being problematic. For me, as a back button shooter when I’m using AF-C I hold it down the entire time even as I take shots, so the grid would never have the opportunity to turn off. I just don’t think there’s a way to make it work for all shooters

When trying to operate with X1TN or X pro N, both worked ok only for the first time till I switched to mk2. From that moment AD200 operates only with mk2, it means it flashes only at the second press even in mk1. But when I press the flash button on AD200 it works ok. But I have only one AD200 at this moment.

Thanks for the review; I'm presently not a GODOX use, I have for the past 2 years been shooting with the YN 560 TX and the 560+660 manual flashes. While I like the system and unlike others have found it to be reliable I don't find their TTL offerings as reliable especially with the newer Canon cameras. When Godox introduced the AD200 is when I first took notice and now with the new XPRO series triggers it seems like a dream system. I'm still going to give it a month or two to work out the problems if any but GODOX is for sure on my list. I do enjoy shooting manual flash have the TCM function would be ideal for me , I'm one of those photographers that likes to work the scene once the lighting is dialed in and TTL doesn't afford me that opportunity. In addition HSS would be the one function I'd truly use. Again thanks for your review it's greatly appreciated.

Hello! Been observing that he Godox AD 600B (Firmware version 2.4) with Fuji X1T F communicates perfectly on Manual mode/HSS but strangely does not communicate in TTL mode. Meaning the manual tweaking (+- 0.3/0.7 s) on the transmitter does not change the reading on the flash. Is this normal? The transmitter is updated to the latest version 3. and the flash is on ver. 2.4. If I read right, the FECs for TTL are independent values and can be controlled either from the camera/trigger or the flash itself. A change to either two simultaneously would add up as a sum of the adjustments and not stand as individual tweaks. For example, if I change +1 on the trigger and it accentuates to another +1 on the flash through wireless the total would add up to 2 stops. I could be wrong. Kindly explain .Also, does the TCM take care of this issue to an extent with the new X PRO series trigger? Thanks

But when I change the setting on the ProX trigger, it doesn't change on the flash. I can change the mode from the trigger, but not the exposure. It will test fire from the trigger as well, it just won't change the exposure setting when it's set to TTL. Anyone know how to get it to work again?

One of my biggest gripes with Godox on-camera flashes and triggers is the strew type fastener. Coming from the Canon line, I love the locking mechanism. Do you find the flashes and triggers coming loose over time? Is it a solid, stable connection, given the fastener is tightened adequately?

Thank you. Nikon transmitter needed for Nikons.. Have Fuji one. Do you think the Fuji 685F will work from he Nikon Transmitter. I know AD200 will. Is it that Godox label 'F' because it works TTL on Fuji cameras.

I shoot Nikon. X1-T works awesome. I bought this one for the newer features which make it nice to work with. However, they are not compatible with the first version of the ad360 and no update in sight. Weird how a newer version wouldn't support the light.

Hi Robert, can you safely use a different brand controller on other cameras? Example : trigger for Olympus can be used on Fuji cameras? Thanks for all your help.
@robhallphoto
@robhallphoto 3 жыл бұрын
Safely, yes. Fully-featured, no. Power control is radio, and firing is done through the center pin so both of those things work. But things like TTL, HSS, Sleep/wake function, AF assist beam are all communicated through the camera-specific pins. So none of that will function if the trigger doesn’t match the camera brand.

I'm trying to figure out how to use the xPro as a wireless shutter trigger with my X1R and also use my AD200 Pro as off camera flash. I can't seem to figure out how to set that up. If it's even possible or if I need to get another trigger.

@RobertHallPhotography, why didn't you actually show the assist beam? What is the cable that goes into the port on the side?
@robhallphoto
@robhallphoto 5 жыл бұрын
Because a Nikon camera can't trigger the AF assist beam on a Canon shoe since the pins don't align or communicate the same way. Ports are for sync to camera or flash (3.5mm) and firmware (USB)

Hey great video. Coming from PCB so this is a welcomed upgrade in controllers. Quick couple of questions. Light settings. Is there anyway to store light settings like in the Cybercommander? I want to push a button and have custom settings activate. Also, I ran into HSS trouble where my camera didn't want to go higher than 1/200. Eventually, flicking a few more things I got it to work, but a video describing how to use the HSS and rear curtain would be great. Lastly, what is zoom as it relates to AD600 Pro? It doesn't right? Thanks again.

@@chewbacka1982 Hey there, having purchased this setup, I'm going to guess that you don't have HSS turned on. Look up in the top right-hand corner. Does HSS show? If not, press the sync button until it does. BTW, I'm going from memory so sorry if the details are a bit off.

Hey happy holidays. I have been trying to see if somehow the back curtain is on. I try shooting in i-TTL and get an underexpose photo I can here the zoom on the flash working as I zoom in and out with the camera and even at 7 feet away from a wall it's giving me an underexposed picture. When I press the sync button it does show the sync Icon however the back curtain icon never shows up. I have tried resetting the unit and I believe it's up to date right now is ver 1.4 unless there is a new update.

Hi Robert. Good videos ! Could you help clarify. I have Nikon cameras and flashguns, a couple of SB800 and couple of SB910 which I used professionally. Also SU800 commander. (PW etc) I recently bought a Fuji XT-2 and watched your video about the Godox so I bought a 685F and X1. Amazing features and price. I am considering a AD200 (bare bulb would help with light spread?) Do I assume the X1 will trigger AD200 from Fuji but do I need to buy a Nikon trigger for my Nikon camera/s. It doesn't seem easy to understand compatibility issue. Is there a general ruling? i.e. every camera need to have a dedicated transmitter. Every Godox product will would from any of there triggers? Will my 685F only work from Fuji buy yet AD200 will would from anything? If I bough a Nikon Xpro tigger would 685F work ??? All a bit confusing.

If you want full functionality, your master (the trigger or speedlight on camera, transmitting to other flashes) has to match the camera. All flashes off camera will convert TTL/HSS signals no matter the brand, provided the firmware is up to date.

I don’t have an app option on my R2Pro C. I also have not solve how to make TCM do anything. I did find out that if I move ID out of off position and onto a number no flashes get talked to, freaked me out as I have a wedding to shoot. Still trying to solve do I want to trust til as there is variance some times.
