In the past, Godox made gear that worked but was poorly designed. Product design is important and, as of now, Profoto is the Apple of off-camera lighting. With Godox, their design department is improving their latest gear. This is exciting. Though not yet at the level of Profoto, Godox is putting Profoto on notice.

They do have the color temp and different color gel you can snag. the v-11t and v-11c. I think the ak-r16 gives you another magnetic ring that’ll let you sandwich a color gel in between 2 clear plastic thingies. EDIT shoulda surfed the comments.

Strongly agree about the Godox round magnet setup. The only ones that really interest me are the dome and the gel holder, and I don’t want to waste money on the (pretty expensive) AK-R1 kits getting multiple barndoors I won’t use. If they sold the items separately I’d snap more up. I actually think the AD100 Pro makes a ton of sense as a new category. If you’re doing the strobist shooting with a bag full of speedlites approach, saying “hey, I won’t ever attach this to a camera, let’s get rid of that shoe mount and make it smaller and lighter” seems a pretty idea. The problem is the price, with the V1 and especially V860 being significantly cheaper.

I enjoy your style of reviews Wes, so thumbs up again. I like the idea of the AD100 pro, but not the price. Interesting that it has pro after the 100? Personally I think it will appeal to people buying their first flash and like you state event togs, but for togs who have a few Godox flashes I am not convinced. Will it sell well? I guess time will tell.

I bought the Godox AD 360 for $250, and the Yongnuo YN200 for $170 and both are using the same great umbrellas, modifiers,... And the Yonguo has even a USB charger... Both, I can combine easily,... You stick the Yongnuo remote control on the Godox remote control... But you need an S3 bracket for the AD100, no modifier fits from the normal Flashlights... And the normal Godox Flashlights with LIthium cells don't lose power with HSS... The only advantage is that it is smaller than the AD200...

I feel like it was a little unclear - shutter speed doesn't really affect how much flash exposure gets into the camera, it's just that when you get over 1/250s (on most cameras) the shutter curtain needs to get smaller in order to let less light in, so if you go above, you will get black bars on your photo. It's not really an issue, it's how all flashes work, and HSS will always consume more power. That's because it's not one "pop", it's super fast stroboscopic light, and because of that less power. Either do as you do and use a ND, or get more flash power if you need to be outside or have a faster shutter speed.

Time to stop going by WS buddy, that's misleading as hell, GN is definitely a better way to gauge the amount of light received albeit one actually needs to know the conversion and tricks manufacturers resort to in order to obtain a higher GN, why is GN better? because it kinda tells you just how much of light you're getting at a specific distance in a certain setting, WS don't do this, it just gives you the size of the engine but not really the speed capability or acceleration capability of the engine. GN does this.
@WesPerry
@WesPerry 2 жыл бұрын
I can’t say I ever use a flash in a manner in which GN is relevant. It’s never just firing straight at my subject. Always bounced or diffused, making GN irrelevant.

The question is, which of the options for the TCM I must use for correctly expose with the AD300Pro?, in the menu I only have 'Speedlight (the icon)', '200j', '360j' and '600j'. by the way, I have X Pro for Nikon, with the firmware versione 1.7 (the last one in the godox web) Thanks in advance!!

Yeah, they really need to update the firmware to account for the 300, but unfortunately it doesn't look like they're going to. On my Sony trigger there's also a 400, but still no 300. I would say simply try the 200 setting, and if that doesn't work, go for 360. Either will work, but just depending on how much power output you're going to be using, one might work better than the other for your particular needs.

It seems you never came back to elaborate on your hunch what the second mount is for. Probably it has to do with clearance and the on-camera application might justify the off-centre mount?

@@WesPerry You mention on-camera usage and the ability to use the flash with a clamp but you never explicitly refer to the second mounting point again. So I'm unsure what you mean by "later in the video". BTW, it would have been interesting to see how evenly the head illuminates a modifier, particularly compared to the AD200's bare bulb option.

Yeah, it was mounting on camera and such that I was speaking of. You definitely want a double diffused softbox to get the light to bounce around a bit better. Maybe a test for another day ;)

I already have the ad400 pro which I use currently for on location shoots, however at times I think it's just a bit too bulky and really don't need that much power to over power the sun. I was either looking at the ad100 pro or ad100 pro. What's your take?

All depends on how you modify it. But in my experience auto photography usually uses very narrow apertures, which takes a lot of power.

Does Godox stobe header diameter is same size as Profoto? can we use Profoto modifier on Godox?

Godox is a couple mm larger in diameter. The Profoto mods do work magnetically but will block some light around the edges of the Godox unit. Also mixing Godox & Profoto mods doesn't really work that well if at all because of the magnets polarity. The "New" Profoto mods are much stronger magnetically to secure on both systems. BUT I still use an XL Ranger Band (3 1/2" flat) to wrap around the head and mods for extra security.

It’s a MOZA Slypod E. I was trying something new, being able to zoom my top view camera in and out with my phone while talking. But apparently I would need a much bigger and beefier tripod to make that work, because it just wiggled way too much, and was unusable when moving. Back to the drawing board! 😉

The AD200 or YN200 is thinner and in many cases can be more compact. So anything with a thread can be mounted in any of the configs this can BUT, the new AD200Pro does have that little modification that locks it in from spinning. I take it they didnt do that on the AD100Pro? lol..??FAIL?

The AD100 does indeed have that same locking mechanism, on Both mounting points. You can see it in the video.

@@WesPerry Ok, at least they didnt forget that. Keep in mind before Godox became popular the AD600 sold for about 390$ then Flashpoint stepped in and ruined it to the tune of double profits. I wonder what happen to Hcteeah and a couple other roductions of these lights? Glad to see Younguo still is allowed to make things for less. And as far as transmitters, the pro with the view display at the viewerfinder or camera dispaly is they way to go, not the display on top, nor the one without direct A-E buttons. Good video regardless.

I definitely agree that Godox has lost a lot of its value cachet. And while the Pro branding was cool at first, even that has been diluted of late, so I’m not really sure what the point is anymore...
