Re: Godox with R and R5/R6 - Current state of play?
This failure has been documented in several other threads as well.
The R5 (and R6) will not HSS and TTL properly simultaneously when using the Flashpoint/Godox Pro2 mk2 triggers.The R5 will default automatically to full power 1/1 shots and overexpose when in TTL and faster shutter speeds than 1/250. I have written Godox with no reply as well as Adorama ( they handle the Flashpoint rebrand).
This problem has been obfuscated by many users who simply throw a speedlight in the hotshoe and state they have never had a problem ,especially when they very rarely use flash or strobes.
Making matters worse is the total inability to perform any bracketing functions whatsoever when a trigger is attached..
I even spoke with a Canon ambassador ,who acknowledged my findings and tried to reassure me that the R5 will perform properly with Canon speedlight attached in the shoe, but i don't think that a 60 w/s speedlight mounted on top on the camera would compare to my 1200 w/s pack with a 48" softbox..
