great video! only the comment on the bare bulb is a little brief - if you use it backfiring at a white umbrella outside during daytime maybe you don't see too much of a difference to the fresnell head. but when using with a proper softbox that lights from behind through two diffusors there is a big difference to the fresnell head, because the open bulb correctly fills all the softbox. of course, if you never use it that way that might not mean much, but if someone does then the open bulb option is an absolute game changer!

Nice thanks. You should have talked more about this tint issue, because it is a real problem if you work with several flashes; if it can be fixed with a filter, you reduce the power of the flash as much. The AD100 is not as qualitative and versatile as the AD200 which also allows you to work with a bulb, so much better for homogeneity. AD100 vs AD200 ? AD200 rules by far.

@russellbaston97410 ай бұрын
@@AntonLitvin87 Hi Anton, down on power obviously but much lighter in weight and easier to pack into bags. It does have a very slight green shift which needs about +3 magenta filter if critical matching is required. Bare bulb wise there is a little filter kit AK-R1 which includes a small dome which works ok. There is a bigger AK-R22 diffuser dome which has adapters to fit with a similar spread to the bare bulb but without quite the same contrast as the bare bulb.

They said the two incidents could be related and the repairs cost will not be covered under warranty. Fair enough. It doesn't matter I am happy now.

Great video. Can you help me decide what light to buy next for my kit? I own 2 v860ii s, and just ordered a V1 with the AK modifier kit on sale from B&H. I mainly ordered this because it has faster recycle times than the 860ii's, and I wanted to give the modifiers a try, as well as a metal hot shoe base. I want something a bit more powerful and versatile for portraits. I do not have a studio - so, it would be on-location / traveling. so ease of use and portability matters. I'm leaning toward the ad300pro. But it's hard to ignore the versatility of the ad200pro. 300 has better recycle times, a little more power (but hardly, real world), and the godox mount, which I think would be useful, as I have 2 Glow Parasnap 36 and 44in modifiers that can take that mount. But... the 200.... people just love it. What do you think?
