I’m getting the X3. Very disappointed in the R2 Pro II, after about a year and a half the shoe fell apart in my hands. Never abused, in fact stayed on my A1 in the studio 90% of the time. Not cool.

Thanks for this very helpful review, Wes!

Thank you for this review! I’m more convinced than ever now that the Godox Lux Elf is a better fit for me and my Sony ZV-1. Please review the Elf!

This was almost interesting but without wireless transmitter capability of other Godox flash units, it's a pass. Shame as it looks kinda cool.

Wouldn’t a 60mp a1 camera even out the 1:2 vs 2:1 difference? At 60mp, I could do way better than 2:1 on a tight crop w/o losing quality. I also prefer weather proofing over not having it.

I still have my Sunpak 120J!😁😁😁😁😁😁

Thanks Wes. I kind of want one for my silver X-T5, but I use it and an X-H2 with a godox v860iii at events and use bounce flash a lot. It looks cool, with a retro style camera, but I probably wouldn't actually use it much.

Thank you, very detailed and interesting. In Vietnam, I could buy this lamp for around 150USD and it was a real bargain

Probably the first strobe that can be used while plugged in a USBC battery back! I’ve been using it for couple of months already too and it has its strong points! Cheers!

Nice and thorough - Thanks. You said the light was fantastic out of it. I guess that's if people don't mind that still head-on look mostly ?? I appreciate you additionally demonstrated it angled up.

Gotta tell ya…the two-finger method worked!!! Had tried everything including filter wrenches…nothing worked…until I tried your two-finger method… THANK YOU!!!

54:00 thank you so much gor touch operations. All other reviews forget about it

Excellent video

Bulb in the small reflector will have more power + a bigger round head for 7$😅

Any idea when this will be available on the market in the UK? I am keen to get this mic as I am just beginning to add audio to some of my photography services (wedding speeches etc) and I am really keen to purchase but it doesn't seem to be available yet?

Yongnuo 85mm f.8 is far sharper than sony 85mm f1.8 if you are being honest 😅. Even DXOmark rated yongnuo 85mm lens as the sharpest 85mm lens .

I am horrified about those fingers touching the pads... Please, stop.

i have an a7iii for 3 1/2 years now. i think getting the a9 for cheap is a good 2nd body

Man I’m stuck between choosing this lens or the meike 55 1.4 and ttartisan 56 1.8. I would love your opinion on these three. I like the look of the brightin star but I wouldn’t mind having a bit more focal length. I like ttartisan but I’d like to have an aperture that opens up to 1.4. And I like meike but wouldn’t mind having an all around metal build. So you can see I’m stuck lol

The check on this tool depends on shift on some LED light they use there also. Also if you will be checking product of company x with another product of company x It's reasonable to thing results would be better xD Also are most of those tools meant to colour calibrate or to fix your exposure? xDDD Not to mention with situation when you're not in FULL control of your lighting, you just won't get 100% accurate colours it will be impossible because colour casts. All those tools should be good to use, certainly better than nothing. If you need 100% colour accuracy, first control lighting entirely, second get good lighting, or at least lighting with the same color shift for entire set of lights, third do a full color calibration not based on just grey value. If you're doing work that needs this level of color accuracy might as well just do it right :D Otherwise, you'll be fine with that rough approximation most of those tools give you anyway

Would have been nice to see the Guide Number for the new Flash and for the other makes as well.

this was almost what I was looking for, great video, in depth analysis, If I use 1/8 power for example how many shoots could I make in a row?

I think this is advertised as a Video Monopod. They sell a fluid head for this, it's this sturdy because in their product pictures they shows this with a full Cinema RED Camera setup

I hope the Weebill doesn't have the reliability issues I got with DJI! Gimbal perfectly balanced, turning it on , starting to vibrate like crazy and then jumped off the table! (caught it in the air with camera... Can't complain about lacking effort though, they tried to get it working right for 3 hours! It went back to Amazon. Hopefully the Weebill has no issues with a 6700.

Great!!! No turn around direct to the point!!

Se pueden combinar los filtros o deben usarse uno a la vrz ?

Why should the AD300 need a frequency Scanner? It isn't a trigger which the strobe light (V1?) can be. Thus a scan feature isn't needed. Just let your trigger scan and set up the AD300 accordingly. 4 years later 🫠

Very good for the price

Great Video

After looking for awhile I think Asustor is going to be my first NAS. I have 4 extra 20TBs already good to go and a set of 4 NVME also ready. I'm probably moving about 1TB per month of data so I need something quick lol the 3 drives I use are all almost filled - all 10TB each.

We have promotion in Poland for V1 Pro and X3 for free so I went for this bundle ;) I think it’s a good deal so maybe godox will have this promo globally

"which is the old?" - points to the old 🤣 i wish i didn't knew that, now I'll have to buy new modifiers 😭

Can't believe you did all of that testing and managed to make a concise, short video packed with useful information. underrated!

I have owned the Xpro S and Xpro II S. Neither work in TTL mode. All images underexposed by 1-2.5 stops. Exp Compensation can't correct the problem. Happens at all apertures. Godox hasn't replied to me on this but it's a well documented problem. Anyone found a fix for this?

any pointers as to why the A9II EVF would show so many artifacts ( purple blue moire ) and has so little resolution especially while half pressing the shutter ?

I got the X3 and cou;dn't make it work with my Sony flash... (after following all the instructions)

Hi, fuji can by Connect with ad100pro with out transmiter?

“THIS IS THE ONE!” proceeds to open up the vid with negatives

V1 pro can work while is changing with a wire to power or only recharging the batteries? Ty

Nice review, thanks.

Also der X3 Trigger sieht zwar schick aus und der wiederaufladbare Akku ist schon ein Fortschritt gegenüber normalen Batterien, wobei man dann auch sehen muss, ob man diesen nach einem Akkutod leicht tauschen kann oder dann den ganzen Apparat wegwerfen muss. Aber meiner Meinung nach ist das auch schon alles! Ich habe sowohl den XPro, den X2T, den XPro II als auch den R2pro II von Flashpoint ( den ich glücklicherweise gebraucht bekommen konnte, da der in Europa nicht zu bekommen ist). Ich benutze am liebsten diesen, da er einige sinnvolle Buttons besitzt und Funktionen erlaubt, die mit den original Godox Sendern nicht verfügbar sind. Es ist nur schade, dass die Firmware dafür offenbar seit etwa 2 Jahren nicht mehr weiterentwickelt wird. Ich hatte den X3 jetzt mal testweise und hab das Ding nach einem Shooting schon wieder zurück gegeben. Die Bedienung mit dem winzigen Touchscreen ist grauenhaft. Wenn man nicht dauernd genau zielt, tippt man daneben und verliert sich schnell irgendwo in einem der unübersichtlichen Untermenüs. Man muss ständig genau auf das winzige Display starren, was wahnsinnig ablenkt. Die anderen Sender kann ich mittlerweile fast blind bedienen und bin damit wesentlich schneller am Ziel. Und wer Angst hat, sich das Display zu verkratzen, für den gibt es inzwischen passende Schutzfolien. Die Bluetooth- Funktionalität bringt nicht allzuviel ( ausser, dass die Batterien schneller leer werden), da die Godox / Flashpoint App so schlecht programmiert sind, dass man davon Hirnkrebs bekommt. Und für die AA Batterien gibt es auch jetzt Li Ionen Akkus, die ebenfalls 1,5 Volt liefern. Damit arbeiten die Sender einwandfrei. Für mich geht Godox da etwas in eine falsche Richtung. Sinnvoller wäre gewesen, die XPro Reihe mit einem schönen kontrastreichen OLED Display auszustatten, was die Ablesbarkeit verbessern würde. Das wäre sinnvoll gewesen.

Great review. Got mine a few days ago. I'm not a network specialist but the instructions and setup are brain dead simple. Works like a charm with 4x16GB WD Red NAS drives, Apple ULTRA part of the network. Unfortunately now 10GB switch at the moment

please how do you see the battery percentage on the screen

Godox can't get the simple things right. Why don't we just crowd design the perfect trigger and then send them the idea and get it made already! I REQUIRE single pin isolation for real estate photography.

Legit honest youtube review. Feels like too many people kiss up to the brand to continue to get free stuff.

I forgot everything you said and explained because i was captured by that beautiful dark skin girl 😍

I would like to just point out that the mount for the COLBOR w100 is the same mount as Nanlite’s smaller forza lines (60, 60B, 150, 150b ect). So if you have accessories for that mount system (as well as the footage 60w light) they will work…..in theory. I say in theory because the grip on the side of the COLBOR makes it difficult to use certain accessories (the Nanlite Fresnel, bowers mount adapter) but I’ve put the Nanlite projector mount, the Nanlite reflector dish and Nanlite softbox on it and it is safely secured.

Each time I have to change settings I have to unlock and lock back controls.

I own the Flashpoint AD600 Pro and have encountered several durability issues. After the first year, the tab for releasing the Bowens mount protector and reflector broke. My Flashpoint R2 XPro II trigger also failed when the plastic between the hot shoe connection and the top separated. I switched to the R2 Pro Mark II, which has been working fine, but I’m considering a new controller while keeping the current one as a backup. Despite careful storage and handling, the plastic quality of Flashpoint (Godox) products leads to frequent breakages. After three years, my AD600 Pro battery also failed. Given these issues, I suggest potential buyers be aware of the durability concerns. It might be worth considering a more reliable and robust lighting system. Also, the battery on my Godox LC500 went out a few months ago which can happen, but… the thread on the battery side to mount like on a C-Stand or Tripod began bending over time, luckily there’s another one on the other end. 😅 fml.

Nice vid thanks! Subbed.
