Good job, thank you. Was just 10 min ago trying to get this done, new to Godox. Opened KZread and bam this video...my lucky day, I subscribed!

This really works great, I tried it out and it worked for me. I will definitely try outdoor keeping the flashes at a distance. Thanks

Thank you, this was very helpful. I couldn't figure out how to get my two 685's to talk to the X1t together. Thankfully theres a lock function on those flashes, as I dont want to have to think about this again!!! Once again, thanks so much for sharing.

Thank you for this valuable simple content

I love the video. I want to know how can I adjust the flash power levels without walking to each flash. How do I sync the flashes to accommodate that feature?

What if the slave flashes aren't radio accommodated flashes but can be set to slave modes? Can they still be setup and power adjusted?

Thank you so much! it was a very useful one.

Thanks for this, very clear and all speedlights work when I use the test button on the transmitter, but nothing is happening when I am pressing the trigger to take a picture? What am I doing wrong?

Ok, correct me. You can use a Nikon controller with Godox flashes for other systems and they will fire. They fire in "manual" mode. So with this setup there is no TTL functionality, right? To get TTL one would have to use flashes from the same system type as the controller, i.e., all Nikon, all Olympus, or whatever?

@ShortCutGuides

3 жыл бұрын

No, there is full TTL or HSS, as long as the master (and radio, not optical) matches the compatibility of the camera. I.e a Sony flash/trigger on a Sony can then do TTL with all other connected flashes or strobes. Sony/Nikon/canon Godox flashes will need to have the newest firmware to work with Fuji, Olympus and Pentax flashes.

Awesome, thank you!

I have 2 V860ii's that I am trying to sync with my XT2. I can get the test flashes to fire, but when I actually press the shutter on my camera, nothing happens.

Alex Juan correct. as long as you have a transmitter that fits your camera model, it can transmit to any of the X wireless compatible units, like v860ii, ad600b/m, ad360, etc... the other switch is the AF assist light control. this feature really depends on which camera you have (e.g. none of the Sony mirrorless models support it).

@ShortCutGuides

All that matters is that a Sony flash or Sony trigger is in your hot shoe. The off camera flashes can be any Godox flash/strobe for other cameras. I.e. a Fuji xpro-f can control any ad600, any v860ii, any V1, etc… if it is on a Fuji camera if you want HSS or TTL. If you don’t need those, any trigger in “one pin” mode will work with your cameras sync speed.

You have them set up in slave mode already....so now I have to go and find another video on how to do that....
