Ive been a big fan of independent flash brands since I was a teenager. Marquee brands hotshoe units were always disproportionately expensive, and for a young photographer on a stacking shelves budget the appeal of cheaper and more powerful models from secondary manufacturers was obvious. In those days of course flash unit controls were much less complicated, but working with flash was generally much harder than it is today all we expected back then was a cable socket and a manually variable burst of illumination. The Godox V8. 60 ll is a very well made flash unit that comes equipped with an AF assist light on the front, a sync socket for cabled triggering and a USB port for firmware updates. The head offers full tilt and swivel movements, manual and automatic zoom, a diffuser and a white card reflector for catchlights. Flash changed with the advent of aperture priority options, the coming of full TTL metering, optical off camera communications and then, eventually, radio controls. Bowen 3.5 Power Swivel Manual' title='Bowen 3.5 Power Swivel Manual' />While in the distant past the independent flash brands were very much following in the footsteps of the big names, now we often see the resourcefulness of some companies putting the sluggish progress of the main brands to shame. While Nikon and Canon have held on to their intermittently effective optical flash control systems for far too long, innovative brands such as Godox, Phottix and others have been making real progress in the field of 2. GHz radio controls. The big names have been catching up of course, but for those looking for something that doesnt come with a significant premium for having radio wireless TTL control these companies offer an interesting set of alternatives.

In case you arent aware, the attraction of radio over optical controls in flash to flash communications is that the signal is more reliable outside on a sunny day and it can pass through walls and other physical barriers. Units dont have to be the same room or very close together, and we dont have problems of modifiers covering sensors if the flash unit needs to sit inside a softbox or similar. And that is what makes me excited about using these Godox Ving V8. Features. The V8. II is the latest Godox offering for Canon, Nikon and Sony users, and it provides TTL metering and off camera control via a wireless 2. GHz radio system, as well as the usual optical control system. The unit can operate on the cameras hotshoe as a commander unit for both other Godox flashguns and the marque brands own radio units, or it can join a network controlled by an official flash unit or indeed by a radio transmitter plugged into the camera. The output is healthy enough, with an official guide number of 6. ISO 1. 00 at 2. 00mm, and we are offered full manual control from full to 11. EV increments. Flash duration figures range from 13. The flash provides rear curtain sync even if your camera doesnt, and high speed sync allows the flash units to be used on or off camera at shutter speeds of up to 18. The head has zoom positions to cover the angle of view of lenses from 2. Comprehensive swivel and tilt positions help us direct that coverage in practically every direction except directly downwards. Strobing can be arranged at a range of frequencies, intensities and over fixed periods, though the over heating protection asks that we limit ourselves to 1. To give you an idea of what the unit is capable of at power it is possible to choose options between 1 flash per second for 7 seconds and 2 flashes at a rate of 1. At minimum power that changes to 9. In normal shooting though Godox says 3. One of the interesting elements of the flashgun is its power source. The V8. 60 II is powered by the sort of rechargeable lithium ion block battery we might expect to see in a large camera. With a 2. 00. 0m. Ah capacity the battery is claimed to be good for 6. Im not sure this constitutes a revolution, but it feels like one and is a good deal more convenient and civilized than carrying and burning endless AA cells. What can be controlled wirelessly The V8. II is very flexible. Its happy to to be used to command a group of connected flash units or to be controlled by another. As a commander it can fire to influence the exposure itself or be used as a pure trigger, with no flash output. Godox offers a separate commanderreceiver called the X1 that makes a more cost effective hotshoe commander when no light is required from the camera position. The system allows three groups of flashes to be controlled at the same time, and users can pick between 3. The V8. 60 II can still be controlled optically across four channels, but when in radio mode it has a range of 1. This scene was lit with a pair of V8. The main flash unit was fitted into a Godox S Type Speedlite Bracket with a SFUV softbox, and was positioned in the garden to fire through the window on the left of the frame. A second V8. 60 ll was placed camera right, to light the back of the subjects head through a Rogue snoot. The cameras metering was set to matrix, while both heads were set to 1. EV via the X1 transmitter on the camera. I found the flashs color consistent, well balanced and in no need of correction. The cool daywarm day effects here were created in post production. Wireless control extends to manual and TTL control, as well as high speed working and strobotic operation, and a modelling burst is still possible with a press of the cameras depth of field preview button. Handling. The V8. II has a clear enough screen and lays out its wares in a pretty logical way. Once we are familiar with the mostly standard type icons it is easy to see what settings are prevailing at any one time. Changing the settings though is less straightforward so a good and thorough read of the instruction manual is recommended. The controls are really not intuitive enough that they can be used with a hazy memory or no previous experience. With familiarity we can take advantage of a good range of control in the master and slave units. Exposure compensation runs only to 3. EV for in unit controls and for slaves across the three channels, which some may consider a little short for complex set ups. On a similar note it isnt possible to control the zoom position on slave units from the master control panel. To be fair this is not a standard feature on this sort of flash unit, but it would be useful.
