Sony a6000 - Godox TT350S Flash!
Ғылым және технология
Hello internet! In this video I talk about the Godox TT350! It's an awesome little flash for the Sony a6000 series cameras (and other Sony cameras). It's powered by two AA batteries, and it can be used in TTL, Manual, or Multi modes. It's awesome for small weddings or small indoor venues, and it instantly ups your photography game, even in auto mode. I highly recommend you try it if you're not familiar with flashes, and even if you are, it's a great flash for the Sony a6000 because of it's size and usability. Hope you guys enjoy the video!

Just got it yesterday! Thanks for making the video. Now i know wat to look out for. For the bounce card, i suggest tie a thread onto the hole on the flash card maybe it will help access it.

I just got this flash and love the video. Having the flash card pressed in all the way was a great tip. I was unable to change my zoom and couldn’t figure out why. Thank you!!
New owner of X2T-S & TT350-S. Once the white bounce card went in ( as seen at 7:00 ) I realized I would need 1/2" of clear tape on it to grab the next time. Nice vid!
great video, thanks. This happened to me also, from that point onwards I used only 2 or 4 battery flashes. also, the Godox Lithium battery swelled and I had to hammer it out of there. not touching any lithioum-powered flashes ever again.
Love your video! Thanks!!!
Thanks for this vid. Because of it we purchased this flash for our 6000. Works great.

I was a wedding photographer for over 30 years and I carried several flashes. I always said I had back ups for my back ups. At the time I was using Nikon cameras and we used Nikon flashes SB 800 and they were work horse flashes. Never a problem. But at a wedding anything can go wrong. I am retired and have just bought the Sony a6400 and this looks like a nice little flash if I need a flash and the price is great. Those SB 800 were over 300.00 each when I bought them. When I did groups at weddings I had two umbrellas one on each side of me with the SB 800 on full power set to manual. Didn’t use the ttl as we found it not to be reliable all the time. When we did candid shots we did use ttl then.

hikyletaggart You know If I were still doing weddings I wouldn’t be afraid to use an a6000 or my a6400. Those Nikons were aps-c cameras too. D200 and D300. Those two cameras were only 10 megapixel. We had the best lenses for those cameras and also did some large prints from them. I still have the D200 but don’t use it much because the a6400 is my favorite now!

Great Tutorial! As I want a nice small flash for events for my sony a7c and this one seems the right one. I thought buying the Godox TT685S for its power and recycle tme speed between flashes to 2" instead of 3-4" on the TT350s. Nut the tiny size, light weight, price and your excellent tutorial convinced me 😀. By the way, for the Meike issue you've got with the batteries, I am pretty sure it is the charger. I've got the same problem with 2nd hand cheap batterie chargers and as soon as I changed it it worked back again. Let me know if it works for you. I wish you an excellent weekend!

Hi, does it allows to increase speed higher than native speed?
the AF assist lamp on this flash doesn't work on mirrorless, correct?
I've now bought this flash for use with my 6300 and it's great for what I want to do. One warning though, avoid cheap batteries. I bought a large pack of Panasonic batteries of ebay and they hardly last any time at all before the low charge indicator starts flashing.

Can the shutterspeed go beyond 160?
hey! im also using sony a6000 with this flash and it doesnt let me change the shutter speed, 1/160 is max. It takes like 2sec to take a picture with flash but in your video it takes picture immediately. What could be the problem? 🤨 The flash settings are all same, TTL & au zoom
How to link the a6000 with the flash would be a great tutorial since now I bought the flash for my a6000 but now not sure how to use it . please do a short tutorial on that would be super helpful for us a6000 users
Can someone help me... I bought this flash and in TTL(or any mode) it only lights up half image
Porque no anda la luz de asistencia de autofoco, que esta detras de ese plástico rojo que tiene adelante el flash ?
dou you think this flash could be use at sports ??? like ciclism
Did anyone find out if the zoom range was for full frame or apsc?
please help me install the flash just like the ad, but the light is on but the picture is dark
I have two of these units but, I wish that there were a low profile flash such as the Canon 270-EX-ii that has bounce and HSS capability. While I like this flash O.K., carrying one on the camera hotshoe with the height (4-inches vs 2.5 inches) and flimsy plastic hotshoe using a Black Rapid Strap seems like a recipe for disaster...
Is this applicable for sony zV-1?

Thanks for this video Kyle. I’ve had this flash in my wishlist for over a year now but just always unsure if I really need a flash. A friend has an engagement party coming up and asked me to take photos. Now I’m wondering should I get the Sigma 30mm 1.4 lens (my dream lens) or just get the flash now (cheaper option) and use my kit lens.....

If you’re taking photos and getting paid, I’d get the prime lens and the flash. You’ll be blown Away by the results. You said party, if it’s at night, it’s going to be very difficult with the kit lens, unless you’ve practiced in similar lighting.

When you place the flash to the hot shoe, and secure it, that’s the connection. It’s an interface so the camera should detect the flash is connected. Then, ensure the flash is in TTL mode so it’s in the “auto” mode. You should see the flash logo on the screen. Let me know if this helps.
OK will try all said in auto, I will come back to tell you about it.
watch out for using nimh batteries in a flash. they are 1.2v instead of 1.5 v. after a couple charging cycles they will be too low for the flash to operate
Well if it's the battery compartment that is INOP, I don't think whether rechargeable/batteries would matter. Definitely might want to have a backup when shooting paid gigs. I grabbed my Godox TT350S plus a X1T-S for under $100 on Ebay. I eventually will get the pro trigger and the V860iiS for when I go FF.

Unsure, didn’t test it on any NEX cameras.
It's probably a battery issue with the other lens. The battery contains several cells. The charger reads the most charged cell. The flash reads the least charged cell. Due to this, if the battery have one dead cell, you will have the issue you're having.
What camera settings do you use on the A6000? Full Auto? Aperture Priority? Shutter Priority? I think Adorama sells the Godox under their FlashPoint name.
