Hi!

I need to buy 2 TTL units and I was looking for the known issues with this new model or any inherited from the previous non-TTL version.
Any information so far?

Thank you!

You could do some research on yourself by using the search function on this site or just read the many many postings.

Please remember the rules of the board. ;) Why not just post the links to the threads for the new strobes at least?

I actually did my research ... but the main issues I read about are related to the combo X1 - AD360II ... I am interested in the flash unit only as I will have a Godox speedlite controlling it ...
Also ... a number of things were said to be addressed in the "new batch" that was released in March ... If anyone has a newer version and experience with the first one maybe they can spot some differences ...
:)

There are no known issues at this time with the new 360s. I have not had one issue or problem with them in real world use.

I do also not know the answer to the question by xseven and I would have to do my own research to find it if it present in the forum.

Secondly the threads started on the AD360II spiraled and the original thread of the AD360 is now going about the AD600, it goes all over the place now.

Some streamlining of the started threads would be welcome so that easier for starters or experienced members to find their answers they search and not have to jump from thread to thread to follow the discussion.

Agreed. It's also helpful when new ones (and long-time members for that matter) mention that they tried to do some research on often-asked questions but might be stuck now. Forum participation is a two-way street IMHO. Asking for information dumps isn't quite fair, when a moment or two of research could have helped. So I respect the rule telling someone to do some research, but that rule also has to have context of its own.

It seems to be a very simple rule and has been around for many years. Either answer the question, or don't say anything. There is no other context needed. The option to chide somebody to search on their own isn't really an option. It is indeed difficult sometimes, but I understand the reasoning behind it.

I "get it", as I used to help run a large photography forum. So I can say with some experience and background that not every community apples that rule the same way. It's basically built on showing kindness and respect to others, especially new ones as we want to encourage them to join and participate. There's no room for rudeness. :-)

But it doesn't seem that was an issue here.
