Ummm... quite a few OEM high-end models of speedlight actually still have this ability. On Nikon, its called "non-TTL Auto" and on Canon it's the Ext.M/Ext.A flash metering; on Olympus/Panasonic ...

580EX doesn't have it. 580EX II does. Also the 600EX-RT and 600EX II-RT. Similarly with Nikon it's only the high-end model: SB-800, SB-900, SB-5000, etc. that have it. Because TTL doesn't require ...

A Godox 2.4 GHz transmitter unit. The current standalone transmitters for Canon are the X2T-C, the Xpro-C, and the Flashpoint R2 Pro II-C (Adorama exclusive). The TTL/HSS speedlights, ...

They don't have autothryistor ("auto") modes. The Cactus KF36, which is a Vivitar 285HV clone has an autothyristor, but it doesn't swivel, have an LCD display, 1/8 power setting, zoom, or a ...

Godox TT350-C ($85) or TT685-C  ($110) if you don't need the extended battery life of the li-on packs used by the V350-C  ($160) / V860II-C ($180). They're much less expensive than the Canon ...

You're welcome. Yup, it's a terrific little workhorse flash for off-camera work (which is why David Hobby now recommends it for Strobist starter kits).  I just tend to believe a first/only flash ...

Mistake. 5D Mk IV is what I meant. The TT600 is a single-pin manual speedlight. It's a "universal" model for all ISO-compliant hotshoes (basically everyone but old Minolta/Sony cameras that used ...

Good catch. Generally, yes. AFAIK, the 5D classic and the T7i are both compatible with all the Godox "for Canon" flashes. No idea about the Yongnuo these days, but I'd assume the 5D is safe, and ...

No, although it should fire (assuming you don't have an old Minolta that uses the iISO hotshoe). But TTL/HSS/etc. communication is brand specific, and the flash's foot has to have pins that match ...

Just to expand a little on what tugwilson wrote, the TT560 is a much older model made by Godox, and it gets rebranded nearly everywhere as a super-cheap sub-US$40 speedlight. For a while, it was ...

Just FYI, since the LumoPro LP180 was discontinued, Hobby is now recommending that the tool of choice for beginner Strobists is the Godox TT600 and (eyeroll) and an X1T transmitter (although he ...

This is no longer correct. There has been a v18.1 firmware update to enable ID codes on the X1R-C. From the Godox download website : There are similar releases for the X1R-N (v21) and the X1R-S (v05).

https://photo.stackexchange.com/questions/106379/my-godox-flash-wont-fire-off-camera-what-should-i-check That's not good. Are you sure it's an X1T- C (Canon version), and not a non-Canon version, ...

Try using 7Zip on the .rar archive download file. Hopefully you can then get the .dfu and PDF instructions out of the archive. If you have got the .dfu file, then you need the G2 updater from Godox ...

Easiest? Get a Godox 2.4 GHz radio transmitter: X2T , XPro , or Flashpoint R2 Pro II for your brand of camera (Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji, Olympus/Panasonic, or Pentax). Those three models are the ...

I don't have a V1, but AFAIK, yes, that should work. My TT685 can switch "brand modes" as a off-camera receiver, depending on which XPro transmitter I used with it: TT685-C, in L. to R. Canon, ...

Which is why Adorama came out with their $25 Flashpoint SPT single-pin transceivers . Yup. BTW, the Godox MS  series is newer than the SKII, but only 200 Ws and 300 Ws units, and slower on the ...

You can't tell the camera's TTL to account for the dumb flash. The dumb flash if set on S2 mode, is not firing on the measuring pre-flash only the main burst, therefore the TTL system cannot ...

I don't use studio strobes at all, but AFAIK, the radio communication is brand-specific, if not model-specific. While nearly everything uses the 2.4 GHz band these days (except for PocketWizards), ...

And now you know why it's so cheap. Most of the Godox A/C strobes also don't autodump, btw. (When you go from a higher power setting to a lower one, you have to hit the TEST button to discharge ...
