It's fine as an overview, which is exactly what I needed. I am getting two remotes and the transmitter today and wanted to see what I was getting into. Thanks for your time and effort, very helpful, sir! :-)
I have to admit I do not like adds but things have to be paid for somehow. Adds are better than no content, just hope that over time they do not become too intrusive. The current level are not too bad in most cases. If I had a choice I would prefer adds be at the beginning.
Also Mark, since you commented on the new format… how do you feel about the “house ad” that is inserted in the middle of this video?
This condensed version is very good, hope to see more of them in the future. I am looking into something similar in 2019 and this will be on my evaluation list for sure. A good condensed version like this could be on my tablet for quick reference.
XPro goes sleep mode after only 30 seconds, not 90 as said in manual. Be aware of that.
Pretty sure that’s user configurable
Hi do godox tt520 which is a manual type of flash, be controlled like can adjust its power, etc wirelessly?
I don’t know that model, sorry. I suggest looking at the specs on the Godox website.
Hi thank you for the tutorial. One question I have is that, when you set a setting on the remote , is it possible to adjust the settings on the flash unit and it will update the settings to the remote. I use flash to shoot multiple exposures and then blend them in post. So I want to avoid having to touch the remote unit attached on the camera if I need to make adjustments.
I don’t think that’s possible. The remote can control multiple lights, each with different settings. If you updated the flash, should that propagate the changes to the other flashes? If movement of the camera is a concern, look for a cable that you can but between the camera and the controller. Canon makes on for their lights, for example, that might even work with other brands.
I did a search and come across this video and figured I try to pick your brain around the topic of the Godox trigger. I just purchased (2) Godox AD200's and a Godox X2t ttl wireless flash trigger. But I am having an issue syncing the trigger and strobe together, so that I can control the strobe power, etc using the trigger. Would you happen to know how to sync them together using the Panasonic GH5? Thanks
Everything I could possibly share is in this and the part 1 video. If those don't help, then I suggest reaching out to Godox.
Just purchased the XPRO N. I have it set as example 1/16 zero, +.3 or +.7. I am assuming that this is exposure compensation. Is there a -.3 or -.7? If so, how do I get there? PS great video, easy to navigate
Hello, I a few questions hope u can help me. Why does the zoom reach 24 in my flashes and 12 in yours? I have seen in other videos that the flash has groups A B C D and E, but in yours and mine only A B and C appear? Greetings from Mexico.
12mm on an MFT camera is 24mm so that's probably why. No ideas on the groups sorry
Thank You Thank You great info.
Your video is 3 years old but it is a huge help to me now. Thank you
I don’t have the word “sync” displayed on the screen over the second button. I use Xpro-F
Using the above equipment, if you switch modelling light to 'on' from the trigger, then press your 'depth of field' preview button on your camera, the flash will emit a series of rapid flashes so you do indeed have a modelling light with these flashes. Don't overdo it though
Didn't read all the 261 comments but what about multiflash mode?
Hi.. What if I want to adjust the flash to group d or e.. Because the flash shows only groups upto c
Will the Xpro allow you to work the flash if the Xpro iis off the camera? J. Payne 8/1/22.
Great guide. You are very astute when it comes to delivering explanations in very understandable and digestible way.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I changed distance to 0-30 but I still can't get one of the flashes to fire using the Pro X transmitter. I have both flashes using the same settings, same channels. I can't figure it out. The one that fires says SONY in the bottom left, the one that does not, has no SONY on the LCD screen. Any ideas?
Why my camera didn't connect to the trigger? Trigger and flash no problem.. when I take photo flash doesn't come out..
Do u have any idea how i turn off/on the external flash with the xpro itself ? is it possible ?
Hm, not offhand. Maybe set it to zero output?
The video was a life saver, the default range being set to 1-300m was my issue. After changing it to 0-30m everything worked perfectly.
I bought twp V860IIOs and the XPro for my Lumix G9 and GH6. It takes some practice, especially since they operate quite differently than the SB800 and SB600s in my old Nikon CLS. For example, I need to crank the gain way up to be able to use the McNally Lastolite. With the Nikon CLS, the camera and Speedlight would compensate. Finally, since the WiFi on the G9 and GH6 is 2.4 GHz, same band as the XPro trigger, I have not found a channel in the Godox system that does not interfere with the Panasonic Image App on my iPhone. Thanks to your videos, I had very little learning curve with navigating the flash and trigger menus.
My Godox X-Pro does not allow me to use the 2nd curtain sync on Canon 700D (Rebel T5i). I am not able to enter the camera menu “biult-in flash settings” when the trigger is attached. Does anybody know how to solve that?
thank you very much, you solved my problem, which was to adjust the zoom on the radio and transmit to the flash!!!🙏🏼
Great !!! Thank you very much !!!!
Congratulations for this video.
Hello! I can't use the function zoom to my speedlight TT600 with Xpro(C). Can you help me? Sorry my bad english. :o(
Please contact Godox support for issues with their hardware.
Ahhh, I think I've figured out why the darn thing keeps turning off. It's a menu setting. THANK YOU!
That focus assist lamp is really good in low light, even if you don't use your flashes. It nails focus every time so I tend to keep it on the camera in low light or shooting things with no contrast features in them, such as a plain wall. NOTE: It does not work when you set your Canon to focus AI or Servo. You need to be in ONE SHOT mode. Took me ages to figure this out.
By any chance will the Godox TT350o work with the XPro remote ?
do a video on HSS with this
I have godox v865 II, when I set this on xpro, working, then I got ad200 pro, on xpro working, now I tried both ob chanel one, different groups, non is firing and if I switch one off, also, how I set this back?
Sounds like your channel and groups are mixed up. Make sure the one flash is on the right channel and group
I just purchased 2 of the Godox AD100s and the Godox X Pro C. First venture into flash and , after watching several supposedly "easy to understand" videos, became very frustrated trying to get it all to work. Your video is EXCELLENT! After watching I was able to put it all together. I can't thank you enough.
Oh that’s awesome to hear, thanks!
Thanks a ton! awesome video!
Good information but please SLOW DOWN!!!
Try the 0.75x speed playback. I talk fast, sorry.
@@photojoseph Thanks - found it!
Is there a way to turn off flashes individually to test lighting?
Yes, absolutely. I do this all the time.
Thank you so much Mr.joseph for this tips
Thank you! the Step feature!
Big thank you for this comprehensive tutorial .. brilliant
Great video, everything so clearly explained - thanks! I have a question... I intend to get a godox xpro remote for my Nikon, I already have 3 Nikon flashguns, will I need a Godox receiver to fire each of these? If so, what would work best with the godox xpro transmitter? Thanks!
Can the X Pro remotely control the TT600 (which is manual only, no TTL)?
You made it so easy! Thanks Joseph!
This is just what I was looking for, love your delivery too! Subbed!
Excellent! Best tutorial ever. Thank you!!!
How do you set HSS on an XPRO Trigger when paired with a V1? I'm breaking my head on this one. On The V1 I just push the sync button, but it just does not appear on the XPRO. HELP!
trying to follow with my xpro by the time I look at what he is talking about he has gone to another portion of the instruction.
This isn’t designed to be a “follow along in real-time” guide. If it were it’s be 5x as long and everyone would complain that it was too long. Please use the pause and back-up features of YouTube if you’re trying to set yours up as I go.
