I love but….Overall the lens is great it. Its full sized, feels good in the hand. A snug fit on my Sony A7iv.i used it a couple time successfully but on my first time using this lens outside, it fell off my camera. I want to say its just this one copy but the flash was poorly constructed.No bumps, bangs, hard usage, no water, no improper /human error to attribute to this. In the middle of walking with my flash attached to my camera, the flash fell off and hit the ground. Luckily my camera body wasnt damaged and I was able to remove the separated piece from the hot shoe.I’ve already initiated a return and have reordered the same model. I like this flash so I want to give it another go. this time i dont think i’ll leave it attached for long.

Great flash for all purpose photographyI used to had the second generation of V860ii , the V860iii is totally better than the previous one, and it still work with all GODOX light seamlessly.The new video/modeling LED always on light is really useful when you need to record a video, it’s bright enough and has 10 stop adjustments. The LED light also helps focus in the dark. Also when the flash point at the front it can let you preview how the light gonna looks like.The new quick release battery is even better when you need to carry it or recharge it.The new control dials are more smooth and clear.Also, it keeps the lightning fast cycling time of full power, the flash is always ready to go.Perfect flash anyway.

So far So good!I have owned about 3 godox flashes and each of them have burned out while on a location shoot (Not Good). Reluctantly I decided to give godox one more shot. So far this flash is great. It takes a little time to get use to the menu. Switching from manual mode to wireless mode takes a little time but the more you use it the more you will get use to it. It feels a little cheap compared to the pixel flash. Hopefully this model godox will hold up.

Prone for problems, but still better than the Sony one! *updateUpdate***Customer service was extremely helpful, I will keep the old review, but add that it’s still better than the Sony one, and with this customer service, I will be back and plan on buying another one. I would however suggest the V1 because it’s probably sturdier.I had the v860IIS and it broke in the same way showed in the picture.I bought this, and literally used it for 3-4 weddings, and this happened mid wedding!! Unacceptable!!

Very nice Sony light flashAfter receiving it, I tested it on the a7m4 camera. It has a very fast recycling speed, a lithium battery is very convenient, and the flash accessories are complete, which can soften the light. The most important point is that it is lighter than the flashes I bought before. Not too stressful to hold

Excellent ProductThis is a really good flash. That being said, these are relatively complex pieces of equipment and the way they write instruction books these days it will require some serious study and practice time to understand all the functions and the way to get the most out of this product for your own application. Using it wireless worked perfectly before my first shoot with it mounted off camera. On the day, using exactly the same settings it would not fire wirelessly, so more practice and study is required to figure out what went wrong (I presume operator error for now). Even the videos on using this flash are complicated and difficult to follow. Perhaps the engineers who design these things should have to shoot with them in a high pressure situation and they might build in a more user-friendly way. Time is always precious on the job.

This flash really packs a punch!!! I love it!This battery lasts forever! The rechargeable Li-on Battery that comes with this flash is so much better than AA Batteries. I used it for many headshots and events and products. It’s incredible. I shoot full time so its important for me that my gear works and doesn’t crap out on me. This speed light is very reliable. Sometimes if I shoot too many shots too quickly on full power then I need to wait for it to cool down. I own 2! I can also adjust this pumping the ISO and decreasing the flash output. This flash renders excellent colors especially when bouncing off the walls for a softer light effect on the subjects.I use this flash alongside the Godox X Pro-S Trigger. Together these work so well together. I would recommend using a Westcott modifier for softer lighting with less harsh shadows. Most peoples will think you’re a pro if you master this system. Message me if you have any more recommendations or questions.

Another Great Godox Flash!Overall, if you are familiar with Godox you will be comfortable using this flash. For the price and value that Godox offers, it’s the best affordable option for photographers. It’s very reliable, the rechargeable lithium ion battery is far superior to AA batteries, and off camera use is simple to use once you learn the modes of the flash. My favorite improvement on this flash over my v860ii’s are the locking hot shoe. This is a superior design imo and is what you find on the round head versions. This is a great upgrade or addition to your Godox stable. I own a ad600pro, ad300, 4 ad200’s, 2 v860iii’s, and several video lights from Godox and they have yet to let me down in all types of professional working environments and harsh conditions.

Best Flash! Great power and easy to use!This flash is amazing. Has a lot of power for lighting up dark spaces and is very user friendly. I find myself shifting my camera between hands and moving around a lot during weddings, so I love the “lock” feature on the buttons so my flash settings don’t change when I’m shuffling around. I used this flash to light up the dance floor at a wedding on New Year’s Eve and it was perfect. The shots look great and I had control of my flash power literally at the tip of my fingers. If you’re looking for a flash that’s a great bang for your buck, this is it!

Broke after 4 usesI don’t have the Sony OEM model to compare to, but very sad that after 4 events, the flash has started intermittently disconnecting from the camera DURING EVENTS. As an amateur photographer trying to shoot gigs, it started not working right when people would walk up and ask for their photo to be taken. This results in me standing there like an idiot troubleshooting my settings on my camera. Instead, one of the contacts in the hotshoe mount had gotten bent. I think this is due to the slop in the hotshoe mount.Sadly, the mount is very tight top to bottom, making it difficult to insert/remove from the hotshoe, but still has a bunch of side to side play which allows it to jiggle and rotate every time you twist the flash head. I think this is what caused my problem. The flash head rotation is too tight, the mount has too much wiggle room, and the ‘lock’ doesn’t clamp hard enough in the locked position to stop the wiggling. Poor mechanical engineering design.Also amazon and the seller are unhelpful with replacing it even though its costing me jobs.
