    Something not mentioned, there's an absurdly expensive light meter that can control the trigger as well which I would find super handy, not many hundreds of dollars handy but, handy.

    Very good review Ryan, thanks for this video. I have a question - I am assisting a couple of photographers that use the XPro I, and they are not yet too confident in setting the power for the external flash that I am handling. Therefore, I am constantly telling them what setting do they need for my flash. Is there a way for this trigger to override power setting communication so that I may manually set the external flash and keep it in that setting, even if the power setting on the XPro is different ? In other words, I want the flash power setting override the trigger power setting.

    • @RyanTroy
      @RyanTroy  Год назад

      Thank you. So I understand what you are asking about but unfortunately not. There is just manual and TTL. But the quick suggestion would just be to set all triggers to the same thing. But I’m assuming that you didn’t want to have to continue making changes on their triggers when you make a small adjustment to the light. That would be a cool feature though. That’s kind of how I use to do on my triggers that only fired the speed lights and didn’t control them back in the day. I will look more into this but I don’t see any option.

    Does TTL + HSS for e.g. AD-300 work for Canon R-5 with this new trigger.?
    I'm afraid no.
    On the old XPro (as well as e.g. on the V1 on hot shoe) it will always trigger "full capacity" with TTL + HSS + Canon R5

  • @devinlightner7434
    @devinlightner7434 7 месяцев назад

    Is this better than the Godox X1T or the X2T Wireless Flash? The Godox X1T and X2T Wireless Flash have fewer control features, right? I was thinking of the X2T Wireless Flash for the hotshoe?

  • @TerekkiTerekki

    Bought the new version of this trigger, first shoot tapped the unit lightly against a wall when the camera was on my shoulder and the screen died, seriously delicate, Godox offer to 'sell' me a replacement screen and I have to either replace myself or find someone locally to do it. guess you get what you pay for...

      @tugwilson Год назад +2

      No you are right. The reason that it supports 1/512 is that the P2400 supports that power setting. You can't add lower power settings to lights with a firmware upgrade, you need to install a faster (and more expensive) IGBT.

Plain and simple, forget about money and price, I juat want to know about features that justify buying the new one. And, is there any difference between this trigger and Flashpooint's R2 XPRO II?

    • @RyanTroy
      @RyanTroy  Год назад

      I do have the xpro first version which i shown in the video.. and as I said it never broke and I never needed to replace it.. with that being said if your trigger works for you... dont upgrade.. i can not speak on the r2 mark 2 because i never had that one only the one from godox.. i would need to do more research on it.. if you use a light meter the top brand for light meters can be synced up with this to fire the flash.. i was going to buy this regardless because i like having the newer version but if yours work for you continue to use it..
