Thanks for all the replies. They very useful.
More research I do, more I want to change my lighting system.
This is what I'm thinking:
- sell all 3 Nikon flashes and all Yongnuo triggers/controllers.
- buy Godox AD360ii-N kit (including X1N controller, battery pack, twin power cable, Q clip and some other stuff), so no need to ganging up my 3 flashes to overpower the sun and one TT685N to replace the speedlight.
This way, I'll have portable and powerful system and cut down on triggers/batteries needed to run it.
Before I pull the plug, I want to know what do you guys think? Does is sound like a good idea? Any problems with this system?...Show more →
Sounds like a pretty good plan. I can't imagine messing with external triggers ever again. You might consider the Lithium Ion version of the TT685 (V860ii I believe). The recycle time on the TT600/685 are not great, and I'd say worse than SB900s for instance.
On the whole, the Godox stuff is still the best option out there for me, but it is not without its shortcomings. I'd definitely recommend buying from a domestic reseller that has a warranty and can handle any service directly. Adorama has been good so far, just had a speedlight replaced last week and the turnaround time wasn't bad. Cheetah, MoLight, and a few others also back up their products or even offer service outside of warranty. Might be a little more expensive, but in the long run is probably worth it.
