If you like puzzles you’ll love godox. V860iii is really convenient if you’re already in the ecosystem, but tough luck getting one repaired. Great vid!
Thanks Jorbin, completely agree - getting them fixed is a nightmare unless you bought from a good camera store. WIth that being said - the cost of a new godox about the same as repairing a canon 600exII so that's why we switched over.
Yeah - I purchase from Strobepro in Canada and their service is fantastic but only as long as the product is under their warranty and after that - I find that I just have to replace the unit. Fine on the cheaper stuff - not so much on the more pricy stuff.
So i have seen a fews video which say M for master then ABCD .. but a few including yours and mine say ABCD ..where A is the master ... It's kinda stupid .. and it's not a firmware thing either .
Yeah it’s cultural now. And i get it. I once got caught talking about how one of my slaves (meaning flash) wasn’t working and the client got upset with me.
To me the modelling light is not an added beneift. And recommending an upgrade due to convenience issue (=new menue system) seems not appropriate to me.
I have a v1 should i trade it for v860iii!
Absolutely!

Agreed and that’s why I didn’t until I learned about the new menu system which is the real game changer.
How you wanna sell courses if you dont know what M on flash means, its master in that case
