Thanks for the video! Would the modeling light on the new one be strong enough for a softbox lets say 120cm? Modeling would be just for guide for flash photography (in a small studio (4x4m) Thank you
I can't find any flash performance tests anywhere. Everyone just unpacks, shows the case and the menu. But I have so many questions. How many flashes in a row can it do at average power values? Will a more powerful model have greater performance or do more powerful ones simply take longer to charge ?
The DP400III-V has a recycle time of 0.3-1.0s at full output. Which means it recycles within 1.0s at the full 400W output (1/1). The only model above this in Godox's range is the QT series which is slightly faster at 0.9seconds.
@@hypop I can read specifications !! I'm interested in how this will look in practice, at average power values, to understand whether it makes sense to buy QT.
I would like to replace my 20 years old Elinchrome 500 with the modern studio strobs. How do you compare Elinchrome FRX 400 with Godox 400V reviewed here?
Hi there, the SK400II is a studio strobe which is designed for photography and not video. You can buy any Bowens mount softbox modifier for the SK400II. If you were looking for a light for video podcasting then something like the Godox LA150D is a good option.
Hi Jaycee, thanks for your question! We've looked in to this in our latest video. Hopefully you still find the information useful despite our delayed response!
does the XproII (Sony) work as a wireless trigger? i was using the V860III but i want to build my Home studio with some better and future proof gear. Those videos are very good! thanks for the detailed reviews 👍
A portable power station such as the DJI Power 1000. However at that stage you're better off getting the battery operated versions such as the AD400Pro
Hi Alejandro, the LED COB lights have an expected average lifespan of around 50000 hours but are not a serviceable part of the light by the user. Authorised Godox dealers should be able to assist for in warranty or out of warranty paid repairs if that light does stop working.
Godox QT1200IIIM GN:105 Godox DP600III-V GN:106 Godox DP1000III-V GN:140 Godox DP600III GN:80 Godox DP100III GN:92 The guide number value of the DPIII-V model seems too high. There is no error in the values specified on Godox's web page, right? I have 4 DP6000III flashes and an Xpro-iis trigger. I take photos of industrial size machines (inside the factory). I need to use the flashes from 10-12 meters away. Since its power is insufficient at a distance of 10-12m, I have to use 2 flashes side by side. I want to buy the QT1200IIIM because it is GN:105. When I saw that it was DP1000III-V flash GN:140, I decided to buy this model. I wrote it to make sure its value is correct.
Hi Erman, thanks for your question! A late response from us but we've looked into this in our latest video and confirm that the QT model is brighter than the DP model.
If you're referring to the SA-17 it will technically fit as it's also Bowens however its not made for flashes as they get too hot. The SA-17 is made for LED lights only.
The godox website give the DP400III-V a guide number of 87 which is equal to godox AD600pro and the original AD600BM (all with the Reflector and all according to the godox website ) can you confirm or deny that through your test results? Because this is pretty major
Hey there, we haven't had the chance to test those exact units yet but we have had a look at this for other Godox units in the past. In this video here we took a look at the QT1200IIIM VS DP1000IIIV ruclips.net/video/e-SMyiymawM/видео.htmlsi=5kmXbKjzbvdR--5Y We'd say it's likely that the AD600Pro/BM is still brighter than the DP400IIIV regardless of the guide number they display on their website - it's possible that their testing conditions changed over time.
As mentioned, the old dp strobes have an e27 bulb socket, for the pilot / modeling light, which makes them more versatile. I have used some oblong 60w led bulbs as continuous light, with twice as much light output than the new cob fixtures offer.
Where r u finding 60w LED E27 bulbs from? They don’t come up on google. The highest I can find is 12w LED and it looks like it obtrudes too much to fit within the flash tube. There r 60w halogen bulbs I found but those would still not be as bright as a 30w LED.
@@boulderboibrian Those 60W bulbs can be bought with a high CRI, but they are not COB and they aren't dimmable. Pretty useless unless you only want to run them at full power. I've been in contact with a few suppliers in china and they don't know of any COB, high- CRI LED light that is dimmable and has power in excess of 12W.
Recycle time in DPIII and DPIII-V is not the same. DPIII's recycle time is about 1 second and for DPIII-V is 0.1 to 1 second. A couple of months ago, I chose 3 DPIII flashes, my first studio flashes, thinking they could work for some HSS shots, because I thought 1 second would be okay for that, but I realized I am limited to adjust my shutter speed to 1/125, cause if I want to work on a higher speed, shutter appears on my images. It was my newbie error. Hope this info helps someone.
Thanks for sharing your info and experience here with us! Recycle time is a different specification to High Speed Sync. Depending on what flash power you're using, the recycle times for both DPIII and DPIII-V will range from 0.1 - 1 second. Aside from some of their on camera flashes, the Godox strobes which support HSS are their FV, QT as well as their ADPro models. These models along with a HSS compatible Godox trigger matched up to your camera brand will let you shoot with faster shutter speeds without the black band showing up in your photos.

I have been watching your Godox video reviews for a number of years now and I very much appreciate your efforts. Thanks so much!
Thanks Huie. We appreciate your support!
The review is just... perfect. Thanks for going through the settings and comparison vs. tungsten modeling light. Great work thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the review

is the cob chip replaceable? otherwise this is a big disadvantage for me against the e27 bulb
It's not replaceable however COB chips, like most LEDs are rated to last 50,000+ hours. Continuously on, that's over 5 years straight! :)
@@hypop Does this mean the lights come with at least a 5 year warranty?

Hello! I have a quick question is the Godox DP400III-V compatible with the new x3 triggers? Thank you and have a great day!
Yes, the DP400III-V is compatible with the new X3 trigers.
I bought a Godox SK400II Studio Strobe. Can I but any soft box for this?
And would this be good for podcasting?
Thanks

Planning to get a MS-V for my photobooth. Is the COB Modelling lamp stronger than the regular e27 bulb?
Hi Jaycee, thanks for your question! We've looked in to this in our latest video. Hopefully you still find the information useful despite our delayed response!
they could've made a slimmer cover since there's no bulb protruding. just makes packing it far easier for transport and storage.
Agreed!
does the XproII (Sony) work as a wireless trigger? i was using the V860III but i want to build my Home studio with some better and future proof gear.
Those videos are very good! thanks for the detailed reviews
👍
Yes, the XProII is a wireless trigger that is compatible with the DP400III-V. Thanks, glad our videos have helped!
I don't have the budget for a battery light. Is there a 3rd party gadget that can be used as a battery for these guys to be plugged in?
A portable power station such as the DJI Power 1000. However at that stage you're better off getting the battery operated versions such as the AD400Pro
Hi there. Just a question. If the led light get busted, can I change it like the old one?
Hi Alejandro, the LED COB lights have an expected average lifespan of around 50000 hours but are not a serviceable part of the light by the user. Authorised Godox dealers should be able to assist for in warranty or out of warranty paid repairs if that light does stop working.
is compatible with the godox x3 trigger?
They also released the MS-V series . Please, a nice video, like this one, to revew it.
We just received the MS-V in and release a review soon!
Also looking forward to the review of the new MS-V series!

hi. Is DP400III had yellowish tone?
Are they wireless?? Can we use them outdoor??
Wall plug in power only. Their ADPRO models are battery powered for outdoor use.
What kind of light meter your using, i like the digital screen, please make a video about it
Is that Godox SA optical snoot fit into Godox DP 400iiV /600iiiv /800iiiv /1000iiiv ?

muito bom , parabéns pela apresentação
Link for the stands
We have included the link for the stands ^. Thank you.
u r talking about 400w but your box Shows 600w
Godox use the same box design for both the 400W and 600W models 🙂
