Godox Ving V860111 Does not disappoint

By Amy

This is my first experience learning and working with a flash. After researching and listening to professional advice in online education courses I take, this flash was recommended over a Canon flash and it is more reasonable priced. I appreciate the transparency of that advice. Although I do not have a Canon flash to compare it to, I am able to learn how to use it despite being a beginner.

Does this use the same battery as the V860II?
Asked by: Jeffrey
The V860III takes the same battery as (and is interchangeable with) the V1, the VB26A. It does not share/take batteries from the V860II or the AD100. See Godox's website for further clarification if necessary.

Can you charge the battery by plugging USB-C ...

Can you charge the battery by plugging USB-C power directly into the USB-C port rather than the just the external charger? Manual only mentions the port is for firmware updates. Hoping I won't need to take the charger everywhere and can charge the battery directly in the flash.
Asked by: Kirk
Just tested a unit. You can only charge the battery by pulling it out and using the external charger. The USB-C port on the flash itself isn't very useful. Kind of a waste for it to be there for only firmware updates. Oh well.

Does this come with a diffuser in the box?
Asked by: Sunil
No, the Godox Ving V860III TTL Li-Ion Flash Kit for Sony Cameras does not come with a diffuser in the box. If a diffuser is needed, you may purchase the Vello Bounce Dome (Diffuser) for Canon 580EX II Flash, B&H # VEBDC580II, as a separate optional accessory.
