AD200 Description:
The AD200 TTL Pocket Flash Kit from Godox is built around a unique flash light source that has a standard speedlite head and a bare bulb head that give you the option of 2 distinctly different qualities of light. The kit comes with the 2 heads, lithium battery, charger and carry case.
The speedlight head outputs the standard look of an on-camera flash that can be modified using an optional softbox, beauty dish or umbrella. The bare bulb head features a removable flash tube and produces 360 degrees of soft, bright, nearly shadowless light. The head uses optional reflectors that focus the beam angle and give you directional control. The AD200 has impressive core features such as 200 Ws of power adjustable in 8 steps from 1/128 to 1/1, recycling from 0.01 to 2.1 seconds and flash durations as short as 1/11,300 sec. The flash runs on a removal rechargeable lithium battery that will give you up to 500 full power flashes and thousands of lower power flashes.
The AD200 has 3 flash modes: Manual, TTL, and Multi (Stroboscopic). Manual outputs the user's choice of power, modeling light, first or second curtain sync, etc. Multi controls the stroboscopic rate up to 90 times (90 Hz). TTL takes advantage of the flash head's built-in X1 receiver. Optional X1 TTL transmitters are available for Nikon, Canon, Sony, Olympus, Panasonic and Fuji cameras. They will also detect a separately purchased LED head. The 32-channel wireless system controls flash mode, first and second curtain sync, High-speed sync up to 1/8000 sec, power level, modeling lamp and ready beeper at distances up to 328'. Firmware updates are obtainable on the Godox website.
Built-In 2.4 GHz Wireless X System
Built-in wireless receiver: control triggering power level, alert beep with optional wireless transmitter. Compatible with Nikon, Canon, Sony, Olympus, Panasonic and Fuji TTL.
Bare Bulb and Speedlight Flash Heads
Bare bulb and speedlite flash heads are included to vary your quality of light. Color temperature is a steady 5600K over the entire power range.
Large Capacity Lithium Battery Pack
The 14.4 V / 2900 mAH battery pack gets 500 full power flashes with 0.01 to 2.1 sec. recycling.
AV Panel
Easily readable digital panel displays your adjustments
Accessories
Barn Doors, color filters and diffusers are available to personalize your work.

Flashpoint introduces the next step in the evolution of the outstanding R2 Family. The eVOLV 200, with the heart of the world famous Streaklight 360 TTL and the soul of the ever popular XPLOR 600 TTL, compatible with R2 Canon, Nikon and Sony. A compact and efficient solution for travel, easy setup and the reliability of the R2 Wireless System. Never before has off camera lighting been so user friendly and masterful. It will change the way you harness your camera’s technology.
The new eVOLV 200 is not just a 200 watt second fully cordless TTL strobe, but an amazing miniaturized modular “SpeedMonoLight” system with interchangeable flash heads. You can snap in the best of traditional speedlite style Fresnel heads at GN170 (ft) or chose to use to the barebulb parabolic reflector head at GN 196 (ft) with super even spread, just by plugging it in. The incredible amount of power and control in these compact and lightweight flashes, make this design a first choice of professional photographers with an eye for flexible multiple light set up. The eVOLV 200 is the next evolution of the Flashpoint R2 radio system, totally compatible with the Canon, Nikon and Sony systems, for remote power control and shooting. With a focus on portable lighting, the R2 family frees your camera to go out and shoot at will.
The rewards of experience and innovation brings you an amazing miniaturized modular R2 2.4GHz wireless 200ws lithium powered TTL “SpeedMonoLight” with a max recycle time of under 2 seconds and enough energy to cover at least 500 full power shots.

Robert, I have watched countless reviews from you on Godox/Flashpoint items which were instrumental in helping me choose. In the end I went with the AD400 Pro and couldn't be happier. I paired it with the X Pro N transmitter and an extra receiver for my SB-700 speedlight. After learning much from you the setup was simple and everything is working well. I appreciate all the time you spend giving honest up front reviews both positive and negative. I also am looking at the Glow EZ-Lock modifiers next.

Thanks Robert. Good video and explanation of how head will work as an add-on to replace bare bulb or fresnel on Ad200. Clearly Profoto A1 inspired. With range of accessories it looks like it has the potential to make a useful accent light for hair, background item highlights, fill when balancing 600Ws head etc. whilst being small and relatively compact for location use. Also hard creative location lighting. The range of kit surrounding the Ad200 now makes the Godox route an affordable system. Currently it's more a case of Godox copying others (Magmod, Profoto) but it will be good to see what happens if/when they can start innovating on their own account.

Robert, Your not gonna believe this. I just received the Round head a few days ago, 1st day, test indoors, 2nd day, test indoors comparing to others, 3rd day, out in the field. After a few shots it stopped working. All shut down, off and on, set up, and worked a few times. Next morning, the only thing workin was the Modeling light. ..Sending it back for a replacement, that could take awhile. All the others, Fresnel and bulb still working great, the 4 inch reflector is pretty darn good... Thank you for all your info, im not giving up yet !!!. OHHHHH, and the Profoto Dome, Does fit, perfectly

Another great review Rob. I agree with this accessory kits shortcomings. I'm not much of a gel user mainly due to the issue of using them with the 360's. The Godox kit for those is dreadful lol. I bought an Evolv 200 and plan on getting another for the occasional portrait so it would be nice to have an array of gels. What I'd most like to see though are more grids because that fit's more into product and architectural photography. I'll probably get the Rogue system where you get a 45 & 25 that can be stacked to make 16 degrees but I'd sure rather have them in this magnetized Godox kit. I guess I could just buy multiple of these but $60 is ridiculous just to get an extra grid.

I am a fan of Godox (except the issue I had with the SLB60w handles breaking and they never responded to a request for couple of 'S' type handles to keep me happy, but they didn't want to keep me happy :) I have two AD200 kits with HR200 heads and all the other accessories etc and if I get this modifier kit ( and maybe another AD200 ) I can do just about anything! Every modifier I own is 'Bowens' so they all fit. Already sold my Nikon SU800 transmitter. Have a couple of Godox X1R-N Nikon transmitter for my SB-910's so don't need Pocket Wizards anymore and also two Quantum power blocks not required because of AD200s power. They seem to be re-inventing the world of lighting.

Hey Robert, I'm wondering since the bulb inside the Round Head is similar to the Barebulb isn't it similar to using the Barebulb with the Godox AD-S2 reflector & AD-S11 Honeycomb? To me it looks that like it's probably just as easy to gel using other gel sets and I also don't see a huge difference between the two methods apart from the smaller form factor and snappy magnet usage on the Round Head? Would be interesting to see a comparison between the Round Head vs AD-S2/AD-S11 combo

So I just picked up the Evolve 200 pro with all the heads. I thought I'd get a tighter beam from the round head verses the Fresnel head but that doesn't seem to be the case. I have both Mag mod and the Godox filter kits but I lost the honeycomb grid for the Godox set and as you mention the filter variety is somewhat lacking. I was thinking about just cutting up gels and putting them inside those magnetic discs, sandwiching them between the diffuser. I've been using speedlites for years doing real estate photography. The ability for them to zoom the head is very useful as it changes effects light distribution. On the other hand, the Ad 200 does not have a zoom head which means I will need to grid or snoot it to get a spot type of beam. I'm torn between using a Magmod system on the Fresnel lens or going with the godox modifier kit with the round head. what do you think will give me the the best results? PS, I've heard on some forums that the color temperature can vary between the heads.

I just bought an ad200pro and the h200r. I tried to measure the amount of light with a flashmeter. Distance 2 meter iso 200. I get the follwing aperture numbers: fresnel: 36 roundhead: 18 barebulb: 11 Round 18 is the same number I get from a TT350. Is this correct, or do I have a defective h200r?

Aloha and thank you for all your informative videos. Im wondering if the Dome is the same size as the Profoto Dome and therefor interchangeable... FYI I have 2 AD600's and 1 AD200.

YES, the Profoto Dome fits perfectly on the Godox Round Head. Cant tell if its the exact same Dome Material. But I suspect it is. Should work nice in an umbrelle, etc although it cuts power down a good amount vs the bulb.

Little late to the party, but I was wondering if you still love this head, and if you ever use the other two anymore? I have an AD200 now, might pick this up at some point, but always seems...wasteful if it means I'm never going to use the other heads. I also wonder if Godox will ever sell a kit with just this head to save new customers a little money.

1. "Using the round head instead of the barebulb create a TINY BIT more specularity" 2. round head + dome diffuser : "than it's pretty much a negligeable difference" -> barebulb versus round head + dome diffuser = negligeable difference too 3. modeling lamp : not efficient So, what's the point ? I don't find any use for this round head except for cto... 3 at that time. Something I missed ? Please, gimme answer. Thanks for the review.

I mean it’s all about the conditions you want to shoot in. If you are going to be in bright light a lot go for the AD400 Pro, or possibly an AD600 if you can manage the weight.

Adorama and Amazon both indicate that the item is no longer available in regards to the accessory kit. No reasons are given. I ordered the kit about 2.5 weeks ago and got it this past monday from Formito via Amazon. It was the newer version of the kit. When chatting with Adorama they said they did not know if would ever be back in stock. Very confusing situation.

Like many of us, and Godox product developer, saw the Profoto A1 for $995 for a 70ws flash with round head and some magnets (the accessories that attach to the magnets are extra) and said WTF...K? Good for Godox for making one and probably have the price in the $200(?) range with lithium battery pack(?). How much difference can some 2 inch round head flash make compare to regular speed light on the camera? Not that much. Small light source is still a small light source. Small form factor round flash heads have been around for a while, Sunpak, Quantum, Norman have been making them decades ago. You can get a truck load of them for $995 with way more power and much better modifiers. Yeah, you need to put them on a light stand, but any serious photographer would do so anyway.

I HATE Profoto for marketing the round head as softer. That’s an outright lie. But, it does produce a more even light pattern with more gradual shadow transition which is far more pleasing than a speedlight (especially the V860ii). I just appreciate the connectivity to the AD200 round head and modifiers. It makes my kit smaller to have one set of modifiers that can work for various light tools, whether on camera or off.

Works just fine. All the heads are backwards compatible and there's only one pin design on both AD200s.
