Godox: 2x V860 or 1x TT350, 1x AD 200

Non-professional use. Wondering if it’s best to have the small + large for portability and versatility.

1x AD200

The twin bracket

1x speedlight

For exactly the reasons you've stated - versatility being the emphasis for me

Yeah I would get the AD200. I did some image tests showing the difference in brightness and light spread/quality vs the V850II... the AD200 bare bulb is great.

Either solution has advantages. The 2x V860 is a bit cheaper and gives you a full backup for one system (backup is probably not a huge issue for non-professional use). The 1xTT350, 1x AD200 gives you a light-weight option plus a higher-power (but non-hot shoe) option.

I would lean toward the second solution - the AD200 gives you more power than both the V860's combined, and the AD200 has some handy accessories as well as the potential to add a second AD200 for even more power into a single Bowens compatible mount.
