Finally a video specifically for first time users. Everyone makes videos for people who already know how to use flash. Keep this stuff up! I just bought 2 of these. Looking to buy a AD300 Pro as well. Your videos are always so helpful.

Thank you , that is perfectly answering my question👍

Finally someone have posted a sensible tutorial about this flash. I gave up on this flash and it has been seating in my bag with no use. Thanks a lot for your time. I will start practicing again.

The only video that actually explains this flash

I just bought my own V1, I was lost on how to use it, so thank you for the thorough video. I’m going full Godox so please keep these video coming.

Wow! This was awesome. This is the best tutorial on the V1 yet. Also helpful to learn about all the other functions. After a lot of frustration at a shoot, I pulled this v1 out and got lost in what function each button had. This tutorial is perfect for reducing the frantic button pressing session I had at a shoot. It is a very nice strobe. Thank you

Wow, after using speedlights for over a dozen years, your video helped me better understand the functionality of not only this flash! Well done!

I am so glad I found this video! I have been soooo frustrated scrolling up and down the power range in 1/10th stops or whatever it is and I am very pleased to find out I can now change power in full stops. Thanks mate!

Same here!!!

I just received my V1 Today and thanks you, I have had a tour of the functions! The manual text is so small. Thank you my friend!

Finally an in-depth demonstration of a product. Thank you for taking the time to do this!

By far better than what I was taught with my mentor! Really appreciate the quick run down! I’ll have to watch again but this was very informative.

Thank you SO much again for producing another easy and concise demo!

I keep coming back to your video, Robert! Thanks for covering all of the bases!

Considering the flash comes with hardly any instructional information, this video is amazingly valuable. My firmware is version 1.4 vice .2 but the information was easy enough to translate the few differences. Great tutorial with out messy opinion just facts!

Excellent tuto... Precise, but in totally in detail. Highly appreciate your efforts. Professional! Thanks a million. All the best.

Thanks for a thorough explanation of the buttons and settings. Greatly appreciate the clear instructions and hands on video.

Thanks so much for posting this. Perfect timing for me

Just ordered my V1 so this was a great introductory video, clear and concise. Many thanks!

Thanks you, was very helpful. I couldn’t sync my remote and found ID was set to 1 and was interfering thanks to you. 💪🏻

Robert I have a question after using both of my Flashpoint versions of the V1, perhaps it applies to all flashes. I was under the impression that if the flashes were set to manual and in my case 1/1 I would get that max light output no matter what my camera settings were. I'm using the Flashpoint version of the XCPro on camera to control flashes. Using a Sekonic L-758C I started measuring the light output of the flash. So long as my shutter speed was set to the sync speed of 1/200 or slower {1/10, 1/60, 1/125, etc...} I was able to fire and measure the flash at full power. If I set a shutter speed above 1/200th and HSS was selected I read lower power readings on my L-758. Perhaps this is common knowledge but I did not know. I suspect the flash shuts down no matter what on the second curtain. None of this is any deal breaker but it bugs me that I don't understand why this is occuring. I'm using the Eos-R btw... If this isn't clear I'll try to explain better. Anyone else have a comment chime in. I understand that my flash effectiveness decreases as I decrease my shutter time but I don't see why the camera would shut down the flash.

Update->. After doing some reading I believe the issue is the meters inability to deal with a flash in HSS mode.

this is oe of the best video on the internet.. thanks a ton

Thank so much for this, very helpful indeed!

The best V1 video.

Great video! Please do a video on the difference between TTL and Manual and also using HSS. Please keep these coming! Thanks -

@robhallphoto

TTL calculates the exposure for you based on reflective metering. Manual, you choose the output. HSS allows your flash to to sync beyond the camera sync speed limit, to any shutter speed you want. But, it does this by pulsing the light multiple times, which means its peak brightness is lower and less efficient.

Thanks so much for that great tutorial; it really helped me to understand my new speed light. I’ll start practicing with this so I can get it down. Subscribing now!

Thanks a lot for this run through

Excellent video. Very informative.

Godox should hire you for a revised manual , now in audio video ! With a few grey hairs and some bold sport I'm starting to get the hang of my new V1. Conclusion after listening to you for a FEW MINUTES ..easy I understand that ,I knew I wasn't stupid ! Deep bow Master !

Great tutorial !

What a great intuitive Video. Thank you for sharing this.😊 April 2024

Thank you for a quick, straight to the point and clear video on the V1 Flash! This is exactly what I was looking for. I subscribed!

I love this flash.....totally stop using my 600EX-RTs for weddings because of these. What even cooler is that you can still make adjustments from the EOS external speed light menu on camera

Such a helpful video thanks

Very well explained thanks

Súper helpful! Thank you!!

Awesome video, thanks!! Just got the V1n speed light and this was very useful!

Very useful. Thank you.

Very helpful!

thank you, just got my flash

GREAT VIDEO

Great tutorial, thank you.

Thank you for this!!!!

best video ive seen on this.

Also, thanks very much for the tutorial!

appreciate the tips

Very Good video 👍

Perfect, thanks

Thank you so much for posting this! Can you do a video with the trigger on the camera and explain why the shutter will not change with this on the hot shoe?

Nice Video!... Thx

Really wish I watched this video before I got the V1 because I accidentally ordered the S instead of the C for my R6, returned and got the correct one lol so we’re good now🙏🏽

Good job. Thumbs up

Great video Robert! I often shoot AEB photos for real estate and notice that the aperture will change when I turn the flash on to fill the room. Any idea on how to disable the flash controlling my aperture? Thanks!

Thank you so much

For Firmware 1.6, "Slave" has been replaced by "Rx" at 7:25. Similarly "Sv" is "Rx" in custom functions at 9:17.

Thank You Sir.

Thanks for the full stop adjustment tip! I was adjusting in 1/10th stops before I saw this. Quick question... my V1 is always on HSS if the camera is on (regardless of shutter speed). I only have the option on the V1 to select HSS on/off if the camera is powered off. 🤷‍♂️

Thank you.

Nice, I don't use my V1 often so this walk through was timely. In Multi your example 18 Times at 9 hz with a short press of the test fire doesn't launch the flash sequence. Holding the test button down does. Is this just mine?

Hey Robert great thanks for the breakdown...one thing I'm wanting to know does the Infra red focus light work with the A7iii as it doesn't with the 860ii!? Does it with the VIs ... Cheers Sky

thanks mate

I can throw my manual away now. Thanks Rob!

Excellent tutorial, Robert! One question please...Is the Flashpoint R2 a rebranded Godox V1/2 flash, and if so, are the controls/functionality the same? Thanks!

@robhallphoto

The Zoom Li-on X is a rebranded Godox V1, and outside of the name, is identical.

If anyone could point me in the right direction BUT I am using the A7iii with the Godox V1s and the XT2 trigger. For whatever reason the power input is decreased (under exposing) when using wireless. But works fine when mount to my a7iii. This is also with HSS on the trigger and flash. TY!

Thanks for all the great info! Was wondering if there is a reason my fps on my canon camera slows down when I put the flash on? I don’t need 12fps but it slows down to like 2 even at the lowest power on the flash. Any ideas why this is or, better yet, how to overcome it? Saw a photog on tv and his on camera flash was keeping up at @ 8fps.

Hello, Rob! I have the Zoom Li-on iii. Same-ish thing, right? Question about the modeling light. Does it stay on for the exposure? Does the flash still flash? How do you adjust flash if so? Thank you!

thank you for this video, i can now skipped the manual

thanks for this amazing video, but in mine when I put the "LCD IN +3" the contrast is too much and make it harder to read

Hello Robert! Does the flash has the same wireless controlling range as a transmitter?
