Hey folks,

So I shot a wedding with another photographer friend yesterday. I was running with my Canon speedlites, she had some Godox V860ii's. She raved about them, how easy they are to use, not having to keep extra triggers in the bag as they have their own wireless system built in, the battery packs they use vs AA batteries.

So my question is, is there a downside? She's only had them about a year and LOVES them. But are there any issues with them? Or are they really as great as I've heard?

Ive been running Godox speedlights for over a year.. alas I am a budget photographer so I could never afford Nikon speedlights..

Anyway, I have the Pro controller for both Sony (A6000) and Nikon (D5300 and D7500 with HSS).

I absolutely LOVE my Godox gear.

All posted by me here were with Godox gear.

HTH,
