XPRO II C/N/S/F/O TTL Wireless Flash Trigger | Operation Tutorial

[@flashforum939]

App Control & L-858 Mode are just such amazing additions. Only other thing I could think of would be - 1. Firmware updates via the app of the trigger + connected flashes. 2. The ability to use rechargeable batteries (I assume this is not yet fixed?). Anyway - have just ordered two of them. Looking forward to getting my hands on them - should arrive tomorrow.

[@JaredRibic]

How often do you use App Control? This is the one feature I don't see myself using because it seems faster to do everything directly on the trigger. Rechargeable batteries - Have you tried using the lithium 1.5V rechargeable batteries? I've been using them in my other Godox/Flashpoint triggers and they work well.

[@Guairenito]

@@JaredRibic I have been wanting to try them but I have never done enough research about which one would be worthy buying. Do you have an specific brand you can recommend?

[@JaredRibic]

@@Guairenito - I've been using some I bought on Amazon. I tried three different brands, and they all worked great in the triggers.

[@gosman949]

Will my Flashpoint R2/V1 have to be updated? It will not Just got the trigger and working well with AD200 but does not recognize the V1.

[@mateuszmikolajczyk3185]

trigger is low battery consuming device. normal batteries last very long. there is no issue to use NiHM rechargeable. because they have self discharge about 2% per day. there is point to use NiHM batteries for high consuming devices like speedlite tt685. of course this is only my opinion.

[@AntonyGomes]

The smartphone connection would be a great use !

[@andyvan5692]

thankyou Godox, for the 'legacy hotshoe' mode, this means us film shooters, and MF shooters can use flash again!!

[@AJCoReTV]

I’m trying to understand flash… why does having the legacy option help with film & MF?

[@gcpimagem]

Finally! Now I can use the godox app with sony! Thank you!

[@GODOXGlobal]

Our pleasure😃

I want a smaller Flash Trigger

[@FreiheitGalleries]

It’s about time!

[@jtes1442]

Hopefully it's easier to use than the last version of the XPRO. Also, why no universal remote? Lastly , when are you guys going to update the screen to more modern one? That LCD still looks like it was made in the early 2000s , lol !

[@ApmypFM]

Please make small trigger like profoto connet or LightPix

[@NYsba328]

Has anyone encounter a problem with the TTL Mode ? I cannot get back to this mode in the new trigger. I thought perhaps maybe it was a camera setting but nope. Took the trigger off and tried to set it to TTL mode but it will only go between Manual/ OFF/ and lock mode.. and it worked earlier in the week

[@skymakai]

I like it. The smartphone control is a great idea.

[@GODOXGlobal]

[@BrianHalePhoto]

If I were in the market for a new light meter, this would be a no-brainer

[@franklinjrodriguezr]

creo que esta excelente, siento que puede ser una buena opción que los celulares puedan disparar a través de el mismo radio con la conexión establecida.

::paging Robert Hall::

[@TerekkiTerekki]

Bought this, first shoot tapped the unit lightly against a wall when the camera was on my shoulder and the screen died, seriously delicate, Godox offer to 'sell' me a replacement screen and I have to either replace myself or find someone locally to do it. guess you get what you pay for...

[@angelisone]

Why the ATG AF assist beam disabled on mirrorless cameras? And using ATG hotshoe contacts would be a better choice to knock down Paul & Profoto in the dark ages.

[@scothu]

I thought tcm changes to your flash ttl setting once you press it, but in here it shows him changing the power settings like it didnt work

[@AJCoReTV]

… I’ll test & upload getting mine this week.

[@AndyBlackmedical]

I'm hopeful to pick this up to trigger my Godox MF12's when they arrive!

[@RishiKrishi-desiGau]

please let me know how to use 2nd curtain in canon R6 II with AD200

[@dennismcruz]

Is the Sony version's hotshoe mount metal now? I've broken 4 X Pro triggers already. 🤦‍♂

[@kingsolopro]

I broke 3

[@erikburmeister4241]

I broke 0 X Pro

[@AJCoReTV]

Nope, plastic… but metal is coming

[@dennismcruz]

I just got mine and it's metal hotshoe! Thanks Godox!

[@Michaeltje2.0]

Do we still need the old alkaline battery’s for this one or are rechargeable battery’s finally an option? That would be awesome and better for the environment too :)

[@BrianHalePhoto]

I asked the same thing on Instagram and got no response so I'm guessing we're still going in blind!

[@JaredRibic]

Try rechargeable lithium batteries. They work fine on all my other Godox/Flashpoint triggers.

[@Porelcaminitoyotellevare]

I hope this will be better builded than the first one, I dont like the quality and reliability of the first ones, need one for Nikon

[@zenphotocraftmedia8326]

They should do one trigger ttl can use all brands . And the trigger more Modula So it can be swapped and used for other brands

[@zenphotocraftmedia8326]

Twist and lock on the bottom to different brands of the camera

[@mateuszmikolajczyk3185]

please Godox! fix one thing. when switching on xproii there is no backlight, i have to press any other button to activate 12sec. backlight. this is quite annoying. i believe this could be fix by firmware upgrade.

[@CappuccinoLife]

Finally Godox!

[@langthang3127]

yes, finally. it's coming.

[@headbang3r519]

Just got this for my v1proc.

[@Capturetheprince]

@GODOXglobal is this compatible with the Panasonic lumix s5 mark 2 or the s5?

[@raizelamie7738]

Does it still have an issues to fujifilm, that it keeps switching to ttl? Can someone testify.

[@CadastrodeProdutos]

Works on Canon EOS R50?!

[@MisterDanila]

Have you added the ability to save and read presets? Have you fixed the terrible encoder that was in the first version? Judging by the appearance - not fixed. Is there a step to set the exposure to 1 stop? Is there a quick setting of minimum and maximum power on the channel? Have you ever tried to change the channel power from 1/1 to 1/256 with a poorly functioning encoder and in increments of 0.3 or 0.1 EV? There are 14 buttons (!) on the XPro I, and I have to wind the encoder for one minute, which also works unstable and rotates badly. Are you trying to work with your synchronizers yourself? Go out into the light frost with gloves on and try alternating 1/1 and 1/256 5 times to shoot either with closed or open aperture.

[@GODOXGlobal]

Yes, we have added the ability to save and read presets and fixed the encoder that was in the first version. Do you mean a direct step to set the exposure to 1 stop? The answer is no. There is no quick setting of minimum and maximum power on the channel.

[@edulyrafotografia]

Does It work on SL 3 Canon despiste no central PIN ?

[@brandonelliotphotography]

Why does the App always reset my trigger to Ch 0 every time connected? (using iPhone/iPad) latest firmware on Godox and iOS.

[@navydave1]

Is there anything on this version that cant be done on the flashpoint r2 mark ii?

[@GODOXGlobal]

Hi! They have the same functions:)

[@saibhargavamanda1062]

R we also about to see a upgraded V1 pro flash?

[@GODOXGlobal]

Sorry, currently we have no plan.

[@mattstolzman]

I was about to order another XPro I trigger, now I'll wait. When will it be available in Europe?

[@GODOXGlobal]

Hi! Can you specify which country? Thanks.

[@peerlessportraits]

I want an RGB touch screen so I can assign custom colors to my light, a "great shot" message to appear on screen when the shutter is depressed so I can feel better about my skill (a Facebook thumbs up would be better b/c you wouldn't have to set the language), and a vibrate function instead of telling the lights to beep b/c the beeps are annoying even though they tell you which light has recycled... so maybe a directional vibration instead of the whole unit vibrating?? Yeah... directional vibration is the key now that I think about it more.

[@felipewilson4594]

Works on Canon SL3?

[@young-hoongihl3301]

Are Sekonic L-858D and RT-GX compatible with Godox AD100Pro?

[@Mani.Shahrivar]

Godox Xpro II-c can connect to the speedlite 430ex iii-rt? And how?

[@GODOXGlobal]

Yes. And you also need a Godox receiver.

[@wens6574]

So the smartphone controll the trigger and then the trigger control the flash?

[@ponyonyo3805]

Hello. I am a user of more than 10 godox strobes and I have experienced the problem with the X-pro-s for sony, which gives very under results when using TTL. Also godox seems to be aware of the problem, has this problem been improved in the new X-Pro-s II? That is what I would like to know the most. Could you please tell me as much as you know?

[@AJCoReTV]

@godox will Sony version (if mine showed up with plastic shoe) get a free metal shoe upgrade? Or do we have to buy another Xpro 2?

[@0liban49]

У Оproe VI JI такой же вопрос к godox про пластиковый башмак для sony (он рассыпается на куски и это при редком использовании!)

[@ultrasnaps]

Was the hotshot connector improved? I have 1 Godox XProS and 2 Godox X2 units (sony) with snapped plastic shoe connectors. The functionality of the units is fantastic. Is there any way to repair them?

[@GODOXGlobal]

It will. Please stay tuned! Thanks!

[@Fernandosampaio_]

Not a difference between X2T and the Xpro II, but I prefer the X2T because of the hot shoe.

[@RicanStudio]

The TCM function is nice, basically the only difference

[@Fernandosampaio_]

@@RicanStudio I don't understand what it is for and if a need it, I think still having a hot shoe available enables me to even plug another radio flash

[@gosman949]

@@Fernandosampaio_ what do you use the hot shoe for? I have it and don't use it!

[@marike1100]

@@gosman949 Since all Godox flashes have receivers built in, and if the idea is to get flashes off camera, I don’t understand the need for a hot shoe either. Bigger LCD and dedicated buttons of the XPro ii seem more useful.

[@Z9Markus]

Does the Godox XPro II N also support the NIKON Z 9 100% with all functions ?

[@GODOXGlobal]

Yes!!

[@veselinvasilev9362]

Pentax?

[@GODOXGlobal]

Sorry, we do not produce XPRO II for Pentax.

[@johnsamuelmcelroy]

I was thinking that this would control any of the different brands of cameras. I would buy it just for that! I shoot Fuji and Nikon. I just don't need the extra functionality and to me, it's not worth the upgrade.

[@gosman949]

you need to change systems then.

What's the difference between this and the R2 remote?

[@GODOXGlobal]

Hi! They share the same functions:)

[@StevenLamPhoto]

How do you fire the flash if it is right next to it. I use my strobe with a flashbracket to shoot redcarpets. On the x1 and x2, to do so you hold down the trigger button and turn on the device and it will make it be able to fire your strobe even when it is right next to it. I want to do this with the pro trigger but it doesn't work the same when turned on.

[@GODOXGlobal]

Hi! Xpro II C is for Canon, N for Nikon, S for Sony, F for Fuji and O for Olympus and Panasonic.

[@KerwanCelestine]

I was hoping this would have been a universal remote where one remote controls all brands. That would have been an instant buy now moment for me. But this doesn’t warrant an upgrade from my X2T

[@johnsamuelmcelroy]

Yepper!

[@AJCoReTV]

2XT has no TCM option.

[@KerwanCelestine]

@@AJCoReTV I don’t care for the TCM. I manually control my power output. So that doesn’t bother me.

[@RicanStudio]

What is the use case for the app? I think the xt2 has this and I never use it. Also there is not much new. Am I mistaken?

[@BrianHalePhoto]

To me it looks like better build materials and a more streamlined button setup. The main benefit in my opinion is setting the exposure right from the light meter.

[@ZzdeathangelzZ]

You can mount your camera overhead on a rig and control the lights remotely from a phone

[@RicanStudio]

@@ZzdeathangelzZ anyway the camera and xpro is already in your hand. I don’t get why one needs to use the phone.

[@BrianHalePhoto]

@@ZzdeathangelzZ but... you already have the transmitter ?

@@BrianHalePhoto sorry I meant camera

[@cristianperaltafoto]

it would be amazing if the phone can connect with godox flashes for cellphone photography, and not only the cameras.

Yes, we will make it and please stay tuned :)

Does it work properly with the Canon R5? I have seen reports of issues with TTL+HSS with some of the Godox triggers. Personally I don't need HSS, so as long as I can disable it, I'll be happy to get this trigger.
