GODOX AD200Pro with BD-07

I bought 2 of these Godox AD200Pro lights and so far so good with everything. Battery life lasts a long time and the product comes with extra attachments that make these versatile lights to work with. I run both of these lights with the Godox X2T remote trigger and Godox 47" octagon softboxes. They provide enough light for product photography in the studio. Setting everything up was very easy and haven't run into any problems. Two thumbs up! My only recommendation would be to change up the nob on the side of bulb attachment so that the AD200 Pro can easily be placed/removed from the Godox S2 Bracket. As it is right now you have to open up the softbox and can only slide the AD200 Pro thru the front. If it could just slide in thru the rear of the S2 bracket it would make things much easier.

Awesome flash. I use it for every photoshoot.

Excellent flash and have yet to burn through a battery in a session. It seems like whether I take 200 pictures or 500, this thing keeps going. Of course, that can't be on full power. When I'm outdoors, I just throw it in TTL, and unless my subject is wearing all black, it does a great job. I tend to go manual for indoor pictures. I used to joke with my wife that it doesn't matter how many pictures I take, when I throw it on the charger, it says it is at a half charge. I finally got it down to a quarter on a particularly long session for a school. I was so happy with the one I bought in 2019, I bought another in 2020, and both are still going strong. Honestly, I don't even remember (and can't tell) which is the older of the two.

Long-time Canon user here... have multiple Canon 600RT speed lights that I've used for a several years. Was never totally satisfied with (1) recycle time, (2) use outdoors, and (3) power output. Watched the Godox reviews for the AD200, then for the AD200Pro. Over the holidays I purchased two of the AD200 Pros, an Xpro controller for Canon and a Good 24x24 box. Setup was SUPER simple; menus are easy to navigate. I shoot manual (camera and flash) for portraiture and dialing in the exposure was direct and effective. I immediately noticed the huge increase in power with the AD200Pro. WOW! Had a family Christmas session for a client with nine family members and used the Godox system with my Canon 5dMKiii. I shot about 250 images and the strobe was set at about 1/2 power for the entire session. Super fast recycle time and the battery was still showing 3 out of 4 bars when I finished the session! When I loaded the images into LR, the kelvin value for white balance was within a few degrees for ALL OF THE IMAGES; I could never do this with speed lights. It made post processing much easier with consistent light levels and color temperature. I am really impressed! Highly recommend this product.

I love the Godox AD 200 Pros. They are so versatile, especially for on-location photography. I like to use mine off camera with the bar bulb and a modifier for portraits. The bundle was a great deal for the price. I love the gels, grid, and barn doors for creative photography. They help me to control the light more and keep it from spilling in unwanted areas. Most of all, I love how compact these lights are. I can easily fit them in my bag and they don’t weigh it down.

This little thing is such a beast out in the field taking photos. It doesn’t matter where I am I can pull this out and use it. It has made a substantial jump in my picture quality. The battery life has been really good also. I can usually get 3 to 5 shoots in before charging. It’s worth every dime. I will probably buy a second to be able to use in a two strobe setup.

The AD200 is brighter than the name-brand camera maker's top Speedlight/Speedlite, yet it is only slightly larger. You can change the head depending on your use (I have three different heads). I also have an adapter that allows me to use my Bowens-mount light modifiers. I have yet to have the battery run out, even when I use it heavily. In spite of my normal paranoia about batteries, I have not yet purchased a spare, and have not needed one. I can shoot hundreds of images and still have half the battery life available.When I am traveling, it is nice to take two or three of these lights. I do cave photography. All the light in the photo is normally provided by my light sources, carried by me or my photo assistants. I need all the power I can get in a small and light package.I also use these when I am on location outdoors or in a science lab, again because of their size and weight. When I work in the studio instead of a cave, these are my secondary lights; I use the Godox AD600 for the primary light. However, they provide plenty of light, and I rarely need to run them at full power.I intend on purchasing another couple of these due to their versatility.

Very good flash I recommend because is easy to use.
