Godox has unveiled the AD300Pro Outdoor Flash, a compact and versatile 300Ws strobe equipped for studio or location work. Adding to the trend of lightweight feature-packed strobes, the AD300Pro weighs only 2.76 lb while boasting wireless triggering, TTL capabilities, high-speed sync, and an adjustable LED light.
The AD300Pro offers nine stops of power adjustment, ranging from 1/1 to 1/256 to refine output. It is compatible with a range of TTL systems, including Canon, Nikon, Sony, FUJIFILM, Olympus, Pentax, and Panasonic. For capturing fast-moving subjects, it can fire up to 1/10,200s, and high-speed sync is possible up to shutter speeds of 1/8000s. First-curtain and second-curtain sync are also available.
A built-in 12W continuous LED can be used as a modeling light or for video in a pinch. Its color temperature is adjustable from 3000 to 6000K, and brightness can be tweaked in 10 steps. For remote control, the AD300Pro incorporates the 2.4 GHz wireless X system, which provides a range of 328 feet for wireless control using Godox’s X2 or Xpro triggers. The back of the light features an intuitive design and a bright LCD for easily viewing settings.
At such a small form factor, the AD300Pro is built for taking on the road. Its rechargeable lithium battery is good for up to 320 full-power flashes, and recharging takes about two and a half hours. For those who own the AD200 or AD200Pro, you can use your existing batteries with it. A reflector is integrated into the build of the light, and an adapter is included for adjusting angles for shaping light.
Godox has also announced a number of modifiers compatible with the AD300Pro, including a glass dome for diffusion, filters for creative applications, and barndoors for controlling spill. A Pro Kit is available that includes two AD300Pros, one silver umbrella, one white umbrella, a softbox, and a carrying case. Finally, for those with existing modifiers, Godox’s AD-AB adapter ring extends the compatibility of the AD300Pro to Profoto, Broncolor, or Elinchrom modifiers.
