Loving the new design and ease of use, Godox is truly making a bold step in the right direction😊
Agreed!
Also, you are right about something here, it does look like the new $700 Apple Watch, functions like it too 😮
looks so good! movement is so smooth
@mindfulnessmindsquotes yeah, so easy to use, and going through the menus is a breeze
Got my X3 a couple of weeks ago and love it. The touchscreen is way better and faster than the buttons and scrolling on the X1.
That’s awesome! I have to agree, as small as it is, it’s so so easy to use!
Thank for the feedback, I really appreciate it 🙏🏾
I need to feel buttons , when I'm doing a wedding don't have time to be playing around with a touch screen. Half the time because of muscle memory I don't even look at the buttons on my R2, but that's just me.
Yeah you are definitely right, but I’m someone who always welcome the next new thing to see if it’s viable or not.
How long have you been doing weddings?
We all like what we like, but I agree with Andre, we have to welcome the future😊
@SoHealthyandClean yes we do!
@@SoHealthyandClean even if the future is a step backwards?
I guess as a hobbies it would work but for a working professional? Nah!!
It's too much a hassle, a nice gimmick but to much hassle.
@@jeffrey3205 your opinion. Not mine. And I'm a professional
I just bought this and used it at a school picture day and it was fantastic. I took over 900 pics and never had one misfire. Before with the past triggers I always had an issue with the trigger blacking out and having to miss shots and to fix it was either turn the camera or trigger off then on again. Best upgrade I’ve done. Great video, so happy to find your channel.
That’s fantastic! I so happy to hear that, I’m even more excited to do my shoot now😊
Thanks for sharing!
Wow thsts such a small trigger in comparison to the older trigger, X3 for the win!
It sure is, and I have to admit, I liking more and more each time I use it
@@AndreMorganPhotographylooking forward to hearing what it’s like when you use it on one of your job
Looks so good though ❤
@@casualksgaming9717 I’ll keep you posted for sure!
I got mine a few weeks ago, and it is is definitely a game changer. I have the older styles of Godox triggers, both the XPro and the X2T, and this is hands down a MUCH better trigger. The main feature I like is how easy it is to do some test shots in TTL, dial it in to my liking, and instantly switch that setting to manual. The XPro could do that also, but it is easier for me with the x3 trigger. I also absolutely love the touch screen. I wear glasses for reading, but this trigger is so easy to see, I can use it without my glasses. Probably the biggest thing about this trigger is how intuitive it is to operate.....it is MUCH simpler than the older triggers.
Thanks for posting!
I absolutely agree with you! The more I use it, is the more I realize how much better it is in every way, thank you so much for sharing your experience with me🙏🏾
just like you said, it seems and looks great.
Yeah, it’s really small, but has a guy with big hands I thought it would be an issue, but so far it’s not, just like using my Apple Watch 😊
Dude nice video, I love the intro you made it’s 🔥🔥🔥
I appreciate you for noticing, thank you! 🙏🏾
Awesome video. I have 2 of these triggers, one is the Godox and the other is Flashpoint
How are you liking them so far?
@@AndreMorganPhotography Loving them, Apple Watch for my camera...lol
@nycks1 haha it sure is isn’t it, so fluid
Just bought it, absolutely love the design and happy to upgrade from the x pro 2
That’s awesome! I love the simplicity of it, and no miss fires
I was so ready to rag on this, until I looked up the price and went "oh that's very reasonable"
Haha 🤣 I feel you on that, I hope you like the form factor
Thank you for creating this informative video. I am looking for a flash system for my camera that will primarily be used for macro photography and a small lightweight trigger could just be what I need.
You are welcome, let me know if it does the job for you
Already got mine haven't used it yet
Nice, let me know how it goes when you actually start using it
Thank you for your video. The deal breaker for me is the BUILT-IN BATTERY. From my experience, all the NON--INDUSTRIAL-STANDARD batteries at this price range break down in a short time. In other words, they are a waste of money and an environment disaster because when they stop working, I'll have to buy a new trigger and trash my old one. I can't just replace the battery. That's why all of the electronic stuff I own support AC power, power bank, or replaceable batteries.
You are welcome, I understand your point of view
Everything about this design is a sell for me until you get to non-replicable battery, rechargeable batteries are good for a bit but over time lose their longevity and become unreliable. Also if I am working on a shoot and the battery dies then I am stuck, now according to Godox it can be charged off of your camera, but then I am using precious camera battery power (before anyone says anything I have multiple batteries with me at all times, both camera and flash). As a photographer if there is one thing, I've learned is always have a backup plan, I'm not sure why maybe even using a cr2032 battery or something like that was not an option. Aside from those thoughts great review thank you for the Indepth information and thoughts on the product.
Agreed, you got it, glad i could help!
can you use it for other brands or is it only for godox strobes and flashes?
Yes, the trigger is only for the brand Godox
@@AndreMorganPhotography thanks a lot for the reply, how do I find a trigger that is suitable for all brands?
@eternalincantation that’s an excellent question, I’m not sure if there is any I can think old, I’ll have to get back to you on that
@@AndreMorganPhotography thanks a lot for the reply, this just saved me from buying it
@eternalincantation no problem, brands tend to create only for there products, back in the days they usually had universal trigger
I find the TCM cumbersome to use. It should have a dedicated button on each group instead of being a global option and with a long press picking the flash of that group. The single press should work like in the V1.
Pressing M after is confusing (we need to remember all the time if TCM is enabled in the settings) hence the necessity of a dedicated TCM button on every group. And a dedicated zoom button on every group too
The pause button can be replaced by just long pressing the power on a group in the main screen
I suggested this to Godox
Question is, will they listen
@@AndreMorganPhotography at least, they acknowledge the email
@carlosandreviana9448 well, that’s a start in the right direction
What’s that flip got shoe flip you have? Thanks
What? English please 😅
yeah im still trying to understand, are you asking abouthis shies?
Sorry I didn’t understand your question, I’ll be happy to answer, so maybe try typing your question again
If only godox did not make their software to control this device require a account ... i would consider it. Since they did and do ... i will not be buying any more godox stuff.
So sorry to hear that
Damn I’m trying not to buy this lol 😆
Haha all I’ll tell you is that it’s worth it
@@AndreMorganPhotography Also heard the battery feels like it lasts forever on a single charge (I was initially concerned about this). Someone else used it for 5 full sessions and it didn’t even drop 1 bar
@csc-photo yeah I think it’s over 6000 shots if I’m not mistaken, all I can say it’s amazing, and I can’t wait to take it into the field
