So much fun! So many creative options!

I liked this kit so much that I bought a second one when it went on sale. I have used them for photographing insects, and food. Though I often only use one or two flashes in TTL mode, the option of using more with with the included color gels offers you the creativity you would normally only find in a large, complicated studio setup. I have only scratched the surface creatively with them.Please note... though powerful, these are not speedlights, they work best for macro work. Also, be aware of the position relative to your controller - I noticed that, when the end of my controller is inline with the flash unit, they can't talk to each other. Just tilt the unit a few degrees and it will work again. An old radio guy myself, I suspect that this is because the reciever and transmitters are in each others null-zone.

Will the flash work continuously when connected via the USB-C or only when disconnected from the recharging cable?
Asked by: Mark
Godox MF12 Macro Flash 2-Pack will work while connected via the USB-C but depending on how many photos and what flash power you are using, it might discharge faster than it charges.

I have an OM System 5 and an X1T-O trigger. Will it work both mounted on the camera and externally? Thank you!
Asked by: Gabriel
In manual, the MF12s can be triggered optically, as I've done with my F-LM3 (the little Oly. kit flash that rotates & tilts) but I much prefer my X2T trigger. They do not need to be mounted on the ring as "Staff" implied on 3/9/2023
