Godox TT350o 2.4G HSS 1/8000s TTL GN36 Camera Flash Speedlite for Olympus/Panasonic Mirrorless Digital Camera

Product Information

For me I sold my Nissan (i60a and Air 1) units because you had to send them in for firmware units. Don’t have to do this with my Godox units (TT685 Flash and XPro-F Trigger) as I can do this from my PC. Nissin slowly starting to enable firmware upgrades on newer units.

With high-speed sync, and a built-in 2.4GHz radio system, the compact Godox TT350 Thinklite TTL Flash is an excellent everyday companion for your camera. With a lightweight design and guide number of 118′ at ISO 100 and 105mm, the TT350S is useful for both on-camera and off-camera operation. Users can also use it as an optical slave in addition to use as a radio TTL master/slave unit. It is versatile as well with the ability to tilt from -7 to 90° and rotate 270°.i have the v860II with the xt1 - i only do off camera flash, never On camera, for me this system as been flawless,,, for the price it does exactly what i need. Plus i like the lithium battery The SK II, DP II, QS iI, and QT II Godox plug-in strobes all have built-in receivers for the X-system. None of them do TTL, the QT II can do HSS. But all of them can have their power remotely controlled from an X transmitter unit. Godox/Yongnuo/other cheap Chinese flash gear tends to be initially reverse-engineered off Canon, and then adapted for other platforms. If the adapted platform doesn't work the way Canon does, there can be issues or they can just drop the feature for that platform. Most of us who do off-camera flash with speedlights do so because of the Strobist. It's mostly about cost and convenience, and starting out with what you have. A lot of us already had a speedlight in the bag. And a speedlight can be used both on and off camera. The portability of working with speedlights is the other advantage to weigh against the much lower power and smaller size of the light.

Godox TT350 Flash Review – the Little Flash that Can

As an on-camera transmitter with TT600 units as slaves, everything works perfectly. Remote power control and HSS are flawless. However, as a YN-622 user, I note that there's no remote zoom control, and no setting groups into MULTI mode remotely. I am building a flash kit because some of my older YN flashes have corroded beyond usability; and I was gifted a godox x2T transmitter without lights or supported receiver (X1R). I was attracted to the convenience of being able to adjust power on camera. I am torn between the wide variety of Godox has to offer.

Radio – SlaveIt's a difficult choice. For what it's worth, I went for the unwieldy but powerful TT685 - my reasoning being that I actually use flash very rarely (so won't be carrying it very much) but when I *do* want flash, I want to be sure I've got the most flexibility and power available. I tried to use a TT350-O off-camera with my XPro-C on a 5Dii, and had no TTL control over it; it would only fire a full power. There's also no remote zoom control (but then I didn't have that with the XPro-O on my GX7, either). I did have M power, group, and HSS control. My recommendation is if you want it as an on-camera flash, don't hesitate. If you want it as an on-camera transmitter, consider getting an X1T-O or wait for the XPro-O. If you want it only as an off-camera slave, I'd recommend a TT600 instead, because it's cheaper and has more power and because Idon't have HSS issues with it. But. YMMV. Godox probably thinks this will get you to use a TT685 or V860II as the on-camera RF master. If only the speedlights were as functional as RF masters as the X1T/XPro... The variety of opportunities will have lessened, but I will travel farther and faster with less. Therefore, I woul be able to find more opportunities.

There's also the fact that the FL600R's AF assist doesn't work on older micro four-thirds bodies, indicating Olympus or Panasonic may have changed the hotshoe protocol midstream. And whether or not those changes were included in any documentation they have of the hotshoe "standard" that a 3rd party could use to develop from is in question. Even with the Canon Godox gear, the AF assist works great—unless you have a 5DMkIV. So it appears Canon silently changed the hotshoe protocol again. In other words, Godox may be trying to hit a moving target, with no information on where/how/when it moved. I also use a gary fong potato head, aka the lightphere, on top of the x-pro2 + the tt685f and still no problem.

It means that the flash is ready to fire and set its power automatically, based on the information sent by the camera. This only works if the flash model is compatible with your camera. If your flashes are marked for, let’s say Canon, and you have a Nikon camera, TTL will not work. The universal way to trigger the off-camera flash is using the Optical Slave mode, also known as Servo mode. You can select this pressing the SLAVE button once. You’ll now see an “S1” on the flash screen.

The TT350 is Godox’ smallest, AA batteries-based, hot shoe flash. It has a guide number of 35m at ISO 100 and 100mm zoom (equivalent), so it’s comparable to Canon’s 320EX or Sony’s HVL-F43RM. As it happens with all current Godox flashes, it has an integrated transceiver so it can control other flashes or it can be controlled remotely through Godox’s proprietary radio frequency system. It’s available for Canon, Sony, Nikon, Fujifilm, Micro 4/3 and Pentax cameras. Removing one of the lights and putting it on a stand behind our subject gives a good cross-light setup. Should you get a TT350? To get the most from your camera gear, I think you will need more lighting options. You should be aiming for close to base ISO while shooting at around f/8. In this shot, you are already at ISO 400 and shooting nearly wide open.

These are cheap enough that I bought both. I generally carry the TT350 unless I know I'll be in a situation that requires the additional power. The 350 is also supplied with a diffuser, which the 685 does not have. In this mode the flash will wait and fire in manual mode when it “sees” another flash firing. You need to make sure the light sensor is clear and within line-of-sight of the triggering flash. If the flash you’re using as the trigger is in “red-eye reduction” mode, you need to set the TT350 to wait until the second firing of the trigger flash. You can do this pressing the SLAVE button again, so you now see an “S2” on the flash screen. Radio – Master Off camera helps, then getting into using multiple lights, various modifiers and other natural light shaping tools and techniques. F8 and smaller incurs diffraction softening on Micro Four Thirds. F2.2 on MFT is the equivalent of f4.4 on a 35mm-format camera. I 've decided to go with multiple tt350s, and build more powerflashes in the future. My rational comes from the idea of "small and fun" which can be maximized with these small flashes. If they are bigger they would be more of an incumbent.working in a large urban hotel, I've found radio interference from nearby wifi, wireless mics, and God knows what else to seriously decrease the range and also make triggering very unreliable - like, only 20% success in a medium conference room. This is with Adorama's Zoom Mini (TT350) on-camera and a pair of Zoom Li-on R2s (V860II) on stands. On the theory that it would have greater radio power than the Zoom Mini, I got an R2 (X1). That had no problem triggering a pair of Zoom Li-ons 100' away in a large ballroom. If you're more used to/comfortable with studio strobes and would prefer those to speedlights for the work you do, they also exist in the Godox X system. And they also have battery-powered barebulb flashes and studio strobes. The flash can be zoomed to the desired coverage, and it’s pretty simple to change. Press the Zoom button once and then turn the wheel. Turning it to the right zooms the flash in, decreasing coverage. Turning the wheel to the left zooms the flash out, increasing the coverage. If you turn the wheel all the way to the left you’ll see the AU option, which allows the flash to set the zoom automatically, based on the lens on the camera. This is one of those compatible camera-only functions. Off-Camera Having said that I just bought a Flashpoint (Godox made but sold by Adorama) R2 T "O" and two R2 Zoom "O" TTL strobes. I have not yet tried high speed flash but am very pleased with this true 'wireless' system as opposed to the Infra Red systems (low range and difficult in bright light) systems. One thing they’ve done well to push the brand forward is their system integration. Any of their X-series triggers will fire any light in the system. Not only that, their TTL speedlights can also act as masters for other lights in the system, from the mighty AD600Pro right through to the humble TT350.
