Designed for close-up photography, the MF12 Macro Flash 2-Light Kit from Godox makes macro photography easy. The flash heads enable you to shoot beautiful and sharp photos of small subjects such as plants, animals, and insects at an extremely close distance. The MF12 flash heads can be mounted on the included flash stands and feature adjustable heads for quick positioning. For added versatility, the flashes can be mounted directly to a lens via the included adapter rings and mounting ring that lets you mount up to six MF12 flash heads. Also included is an Extreme Close-Up Positioning Adapter with a specially designed slope structure that lets you angle the flash heads inwards toward the lens for extreme close-up photography. For on and off camera use, the flash heads require a separately purchased transmitter and are compatible with the Godox XPro, X1, X2, and other select wireless flash triggers for main brand cameras such as Nikon, Sony, Canon, FUJIFIM, Olympus, and Panasonic.

Godox MF12 Reviews
FABULOUS
Godox Mf12 macro flashes are FABULOUS!!!!! I shoot macro exclusively and the Godox macro flash kit provides SHADOW FREE stacks with accurate color and white balance . One flash unit set at the one o'clock ring position and the other set at the ten o'clock position - 1/16 manual power. Easy set-up and, once synced with my Godox XPROC trigger, perfect flashes every time.
I was surprised how when they work!
I generally use a manual ring light for macro photography. I bought these to allow more flexibility of strobe placement and, when needed, to use TTL (comes in handy when walking around doing macro). I was pleasantly surprised at the simplicity of use! They internally charge their batteries, can be positioned anywhere around the front lens ring and gives excellent flexibility. They are more than powerful enough for this use case. I also used them for a little portrait work when I need a little light for highlights. Both flashes crazy small, battery life is great and they work seamlessly with Godox triggers. I liked them so much I bought a second set.
Simple Flashes with great creative possibilities!
I purchased a set of two flashes, and, after testing them, I decided to buy two more. I always using flash light only in manual mode, and, in the case of macro photography, manual control is the best way to use external light and control its direction and lighting power. Four flashes with all the accessories and modifiers give you unlimited possibilities for experimenting with lighting your scene. In my opinion, Godox MF12 Macro Flash is the perfect solution for macro photography and product photography without hurting your bank account.
Convenient little flash
I use two of these in slave mode for studio extreme macro photography using an automated rail to create stacks of images. (The master flash is an old Canon MT-24ex.) I was using a couple of cheap Mieke speedlites, but their output was inconsistent producing varied exposures between images. The MF12s are very consistent and the final images from my recent stacks are much improved. I have heard that this model may not have the best reliability and durability, and that Godex doesn't have the best customer service. Thus far, I haven't confronted these issues. I am currently pleased with these flashes.
Great addition
Originally bought to add on to the Godox MF12 macro flash ring, I find it useful in a number of other situation as fill light.
Yes it swings all around.. but fixable easily
So I read the reviews about how the weight of the flashes swing each flash to the bottom of the ring holder and how this is worthless. I also read that some people said that did not happen and to those it did happen, they were just not tightening their adapter well enough. So.. This is the true scoop.. You can tighten the adapter all you want but the adapter to the flash-ring holder is a simple friction snap in connection. This is the part that rotates. It did at least w/ mine. So the fix... (not that we should have to do this when paying this amount of money) is to add some friction. I got some (black) electricians tape and cut off about 3mm wide by 15 mm long. I put in on the inside of the part where the ring lens adapter (in my case a 62) snaps in. I did this to both sides. It's really hard to see on the photos but that's the point, huh? and then snapped the ring in. The image is of the ring adapter snapped in and some of the tape sticking out. This worked like a charm... Now if Godox or B&H will send me a check or some free flashes? lol .... then to problem #2 I had to synch this with my xPro S... check out the youtube video by Allan Walls called Godox mf12 & Godox xpro step by step set up I would have been there for hours if it weren't for his video. Thank you Mr. Walls. Good luck w/ your flashy new purchase
Great Kit
Excellent macro flash system Hands down better than Nikon and Canon due to the wireless feature Has all the adapter rings you will ever need Has a bunch of filters that I would not use in my biological photography Independent control requires controller sold separately
Best Macro Flash
Best macro flash on the market Power settings are easily changed from the camera for each flash Exceptional construction and very reasonable price I have three for use on flex arms or articulating arms for creative lighting control Taught a cosmetic dentist how to use the system for full mouth imaging
