Very nice overview. Have been enjoying my V1 for the past year, always used Nikon SB5000 and SB800 with external battery before. With those and with the V1 I use a strobe frame flash will always be pointed in the chosen orientation.

My stupid V1 somehow manages to overheat after less than 20 1/8 power shots in a cold environment, I'm keeping it only as a reminder not to buy one again

There is something definitely wrong with your flash. I hear Wescott is pretty good.

Hi Rob! I'm new to this and wondering whether the Mount of the flash makes a difference in terms of compatibility? Can I use any flash on any system or will the mount differ significantly and functionality would be limited? I have some old flashes from the 90s and they work with any flash mount, so I'm confused. Best regards and thanks for the great videos!

Your comments in favour of the Pro have me thinking I will keep mine and maybe unload the regular version and/or some other older speedlites. Up to now I was thinking the Pro is too good for me as a so-so shooter (Sony a7III) but I do want to start using flash at outdoor sporting events so I can 1/get stronger contrast those people like and 2/freeze motion more reliably and especially more before the recycle speed fades.

Thanks. I think the pro makes sense in that case.

Does anyone know for canon version the original V1 and other Godox flashes, such as the AD200 Pro, do not work when shooting TTL + HSS together. TTL on its own or HSS on its own work fine but when used together, the flash fires at full power every shot. I contacted Godox last year and they confirmed the issue. They were working on it but hadn't been able to resolve the issue at that time. Do anyone know if TTL + HSS are working properly now with the new V1 Pro and Canon mirrorless cameras (especially the R7, as that is the camera I have)? Could anyone please test this for Canon R series camera (if you have R7 would be awesome) would be much appreciated.

Interesting review, however I only rarely use flash power, if taking interior ( or exterior) images of people, they ( particularly in the age of phone cameras) seem quite put off by the use of a flash ! This has always been an issue, however the onslaught of mobile phone cameras has simply increased the "flash shyness" of human subjects. Looks to be a great option for serious hobbyists and pros- imagine true pros will always use OE units.

Thanks. Definitely for more serious event and modeling work.

Thank you for your review. Do you have a coupon for the V1pro-F?

No, sorry.

I wonder if a V2 Pro unit will come that gives use TTL control of the sub flash?

@RobTrek 3 ай бұрын

They might be able to just do a firmware update.

@waynecox5138 3 ай бұрын

I’m wondering if they will start selling replacement batteries that include USB-C charging for the different battery pack based flash units.

@RobTrek 3 ай бұрын

I'm sure they will.

@waynecox5138 3 ай бұрын

I found some for the OM-1. Handy.

@stefpix Ай бұрын

Does the new battery of the V1 Pro work on the V1? That would allow to not travel with the charger. Anyway for travel I would prefer the TT350 or the TT685ii with rechargeable AAs

@RobTrek Ай бұрын

Yes, the V1 Pro battery fits the V1.

@stefpix Ай бұрын

@@RobTrek thank you. That could be a nice upgrade for the V1. It should fit the AD100pro as well.

Hi, thanks for the video. Can you tell me if the new side switch to change from TTL to Manual works when the back panel is locked? My fat forehead always accidentally changes the mode by hitting the wheel but the two seconds it takes to unlock the wheel is an eternity when photographing people on stage.

@RobTrek Ай бұрын

Yes, the switch still works when the back panel is locked.
