To learn more about the difference between these two flashes, as well as the pros and cons of this flash, read our AD200 vs AD200 Pro comparison blog. The AD400Pro features a 2600mAh lithium-ion battery that is capable of fast recycling times of 0.01-1.0s, up to 390 flashes at full power and a fast recharge time of less than 3 hours.

This ability to overpower the sun comes from the massive 600Ws of power that this light can produce. This light has a power range of 1/256-1/1 in 10 increments, a recycling time of 0.01-0.9s, as well as sporting TTL and HSS capabilities.

New power button sequence prevents accidentally turning it on and wasting power (or burning anything) while travelling to or from a shoot The AD400Pro TTL Studio Flash Series Features new re-designed flash tubes with a colour consistency of 5600K +75k. The AD400Pro can produce long bursts of controlled light in Colour Mode and High-Speed Sync and has a recycling time of 1 second even when used at maximum power. The flash duration can go as low a 1/ 12340s (at 1/256, t0.1) allowing you to freeze fast moving objects such as liquid splashes or sports.Our new price match policy guarantees you the same price as other retailers so you’re alway getting the best deal possible... There are also reports that for the units that have a USB-C port, that you need to use a USB-C to USB-A cable. Wrong USB port

Ok, so maybe Paul asked me to add that last one. I’m curious to see what will happen, actually, with 3rd party flash support with Sigma’s new Panasonic/Leica alliance. The AD400Prohas Super Short recycle times ranging from 0.01-0.9s you will not need to worry about a long wait between shots making sure that those important shots are not missed and reducing overall production time. Both are 4800K which is equivalent to outside daylight. The strength of the modelling lamp really helps with focusing in low light situations and seeing what the light will do without having to do test shots. Connectivity Edit: I probably should’ve put the power & more specific details in this bit (thanks for the reminder, Ulysses). The USB-A port is only for attaching an FTR16 receiver if you want to use Godox's older 433 MHz triggering system. Always use the USB C (newer lights) or micro USB (older lights) port for firmware updates. File namesIt also comes with a set of screws and an allen key for fixing the included Bowens Mount adapter ring to the unit. If Sigma adopts Panasonic’s flash system, then it means next year’s full frame Foveon camera should already have full support from Godox. If not, Paul will just have to keep hoping that Godox one day supports Sigma’s flash system. Conclusion The process of adjusting to TTL, Manual, or Multimode is straightforward, and it is easy to customise the settings and play around with different lighting effects – these can all be adjusted using the side control panel on both units. The advanced built-in Lithium-ion battery has been designed for performance, making it more reliable than ever when shooting. It will recycle 400w/s in 0.9 seconds. This Godox AD400 Pro TTL will give you 390 full power shots. LIGHTWEIGHT AND PORTABLE: Lighting modifiers such as softboxes, barn doors, snoots and beauty dishes are also readily fitted directly to the unit or the attached mount.

Hold down Shift while selecting [Start menu]→Power→Restart. Continue holding down the shift key through the spinning circle of white dots until you are in the blue advanced boot options window. In summary, though, it feels like a good solid light, and it seems to have all the features that were added to the AD600 Pro in a recent firmware.

Taking out the batteries

This comes in handy when traveling so that the flash can’t be accidentally turned on and drain the battery. G2 looks like it uses a separate DFU driver(?) that apparently is properly signed for Windows 10. G3 does not use an installer and does not add a driver to the system. Taking out the batteries

The AD400Pro also features a built-in Godox X-reciever that gives you remote control up to 100m and High-Speed Sync is avaiable at up to 1/8000s.On all three Nikon, Sony and Pentax cameras, it fired every single time, and the TTL exposures were pretty close to where we’d have put the exposure if we were doing it manually. Having a battery powered flash not only removes the need for AC Power Outputs and wasting time trying to find the outlets (if there even are any available), but also eliminates the tripping hazard of cables on set. The AD400Pro has been constructed from high-quality plastic and features a large, easy to read LCD screen. Both the tripod mount and light modifier bayonet are constructed from metal for extra durability and the flash can even be used with a 120cm octagonal softbox.

The AD600 Pro also offers a very powerful modeling lamp, meaning that this light can also be used as a video light alongside its flash capabilities! Offering a 38w light, as well as a 4-hour battery life from a single charge, the AD600 Pro is a great tool for both videography and flash photography.
