Fast and easy trade in service ensures your old gear is collected efficiently and you are paid quickly! Firing off a couple of test shots and it’s instantly apparent that this flash has some serious power, and tilting the head up to bounce off the ceiling with the bounce card extracted the fall of illumination from the flash does the job of lighting my subject a couple of metres away.

If you want more details and footage of the V860III in action, check out my video review below…or just check out the photos in the gallery. I know that some of my older AA battery-powered flashes would be struggling to keep up in a similar test.The life of photo 60x60cm folding softbox is the quickest, easiest and more portable way to get a soft diffused light in your photography from your flashguns or speedlite. This might be important measurements if you are planning on getting a customized flash diffuser for the speedlite.

You can partner the Godox VING V860III SPEEDLIGHT with the X1 wireless trigger system and higher-end V1 flashguns. The Godox V860III-S is compatible with Sony A7, A9, A9II, A7R, A7C, A7II, A7SII, A6000, A6300, A6500, R4, A7R4, A7RII, ILCE6000L, A77II, A58, A99, RX10, A9 and etc. This allows one to control multiple light units in a variety of ways and to get far more pleasing lighting results (and also total control over the direction and intensity of the light). The extra weight is probably due to the new rechargeable Lithium ION battery: the V860 III weighs in at 18. If I were choosing between a 860 and V1 for an off camera flash I would go for the round head V1 for an off shoe flash.I would like to use a separate off-body flash so I can angle the light from a different direction (I am a beekeeper and have a specific need to have the light from both the side and the front). Bei Verwendung eines Diffusers, was Sinn macht, empfiehlt es sich die Zoom Einstellung auf die weitwinkligste zu stellen, damit das Licht gut streut. I must admit though, that after using the GODOX Li-ion batteries i have not missed them a single day.

Quick Button and Release Lock] Godox V860III has a quick button on the side, able to quickly switch from the manual mode to TTL mode. I very nearly didn’t go with another Godox based on my experience with the V350, given how wildly inconsistent it is when taking focus stacks but luckily the V1 is a vast improvement. Hi Richard, i did not use it that way before, but i think the V350 can serve as an optical slave flash unit, so another flash should trigger it.They share the same battery which is fantastic for those wishing to build a complete lighting system with this brand. I would prefer the V860III even, because it packs a bit flatter than the V1 with its round flash head. As most of Godox’ flashes, the V860III TTL Li-ion Camera Flash is available for Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji, Olympus and Panasonic Cameras (watch for the letters C/N/S/F/O/P in the model version´s name). I’ve concentrated on the new features for this review, as all of the standard features are just as you’d expect from Godox.

The V860III adds a switch that's always within easy reach, so you can instantly switch between manual and TTL modes.In the endless pursuit of improving users' shooting experience, Godox is trying to make perfection more perfect. Lux SeniorLux Senior, a camera flash with an unusual shape resembling a work of art, attracts inspiration every time you unfold it. So you could have two main lights at 50% power in Group A, Two at 25% doing some back illumination in group B and one flash for a bit of fill-in at 10% in group C. Nun ist es aber nicht meine Aufgabe, das zu kritisieren und stelle dir deshalb die Frage, wie du deine OM-1 und deinen V1 Blitz einstellt, um optimale Ergebnisse auf kurzer Distanz zu erreichen. Again pushing button two flips you through the options, and a quick manual check shows whether you’ve opted for the right one!
