What parts do I need to get this to work with a Fuji X-H1 and 80mm macro?
Asked by: Craig
The Godox MF12 Macro Flash 2-Light Kit does include the 62mm mounting ring to attach the heads to the FUJIFILM XF 80mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro Lens. You will need to add the Godox XProF TTL Wireless Flash Trigger for Fujifilm Cameras. Here is the link: https://bhpho.to/3ziDgki

A transmitter such as this one for Canon would be needed: https://bhpho.to/3s5aqRL but you should choose a Nikon transmitter if you are shooting with a Nikon camera or a different version depending on the brand or your camera.

Has anyone considered or purchased a 3rd flash for this kit? My theory is a 3rd flash will make the light bigger and therefore softer. Can anyone confirm or reject this theory?
Asked by: Adam
Adding an additional flash won't make the light larger -the subject will see all of the flashes as individual light sources unless you fire them through the same diffuser. It will lower the flash duration though, making it easier to freeze motion. In most cases you won't need the shorter flash duration though.

Can one of the macro flashes be triggered with a sync cord attached to the camera which in turn triggers the other macro flashes wirelessly?
Asked by: Richard
The Godox MF12 cannot connect using a sync cable. The triggering is limited to a Godox X series transmitter on the camera or a Godox speedlight with a X series transmitter built in.
