Pro Performance
Building on its predecessor, the AD300Pro II All-in-One Outdoor Flash from Godox arrives as the improved, second version of the popular AD300Pro—bringing several professional features and a more sleek design. Godox continues to expand its Witstro series by introducing the 300Ws AD300Pro II with 16 color groups, a convenient color screen, and a 12W bi-color LED modeling light. Another benefit is one-tap sync functionality with the brand’s separately available X3 trigger for easy synchronization. The AD300Pro II also brings a wider 1/512 to 1/1 power output in 0.1 increments, offering full TTL support to work with the auto flash systems of Canon, Nikon, FUJIFILM, OM SYSTEM, Panasonic, Sony, Leica, and Pentax cameras. The flash head has a recycle time of 0.1-1.5 sec, a handy action-stopping freeze mode, and finally, a lightweight 2.6 lb body that makes it a great asset for outdoor creators. Among its various acessories, the flash body comes with a reflector, battery, charging cable, and a carry bag.
Better Performance
The AD300Pro II’s detachable battery will give you up to 350 full-power flashes with recycle times from 0.01 to 1.5 sec, a 10-stop power range, and high-speed sync times as short as 1/8000 sec. In addition, the AD300Pro II introduces a convenient freeze mode with flash durations from 1/2310 to 1/24,390 sec for stopping action. Outside of the freeze mode, the AD300Pro II has normal flash durations from 1/220 to 1/14,920 sec.
Improved Design
Godox has improved the physical body of this flash, bringing a more elegant and modern design that enables intuitive local operation. Another unique AD300Pro II setting is its Color-Stable mode which maintains a consistent color temperature throughout the entire power range. At 5800K (+/-200K), the AD300Pro II is ideal for on-location portraits, editorial shoots, and other commercial work.
Effortless for Your Creative Shots
Designed to simplify use when combined with the separately available X3 trigger, the AD300Pro II enables instant synchronization with the X3 to let you focus on your visual creation. This wireless sync function will optimize your photo workflow, cutting down the time you normally spend managing complicated channels and ID settings. Simply press the wireless sync option on both your X3 and the AD300Pro II to achieve quick synchronization.
16 Groups with Color Identification
The AD300Pro II is part of Godox’s 2.4 GHz wireless X system with a range of 328′, featuring 16 groups, 32 channels, and 99 IDs that facilitate the use of multiple lights. Use the optional X3 or the XPro series, X2T, and X1 triggers to wirelessly control the flash head. The brand adds 16 color group capability so different colors will locally display on the flash head for easy group identification even from a distance.
Intuitive Settings
In addition to the group color capability right at the head of the flash, the AD300Pro II body also has a color screen and a smooth metal control dial. Common functionalities of the flash are easy to manage thanks to an intuitive menu and local buttons. Besides that, it was clever of Godox to employ an upgraded bi-color LED modeling light that is now variable from a wider 2800 to 6000K range with adjustable brightness from 10 to 100%. The lamp has high CRI and TLCI ratings of 97 and 98, respectively. Use the LED modeling light for your previews or on-set illumination.
Widely Compatible
The AD300Pro II has a proprietary Godox mount, but enables Bowens mount with the use of optional adapters. Meaning wide compatibility with optional light shapers from the Godox ecosystem and other types of modifiers, such as a snoot, a barndoor kit, a long focus reflector, a flash projector, and various softboxes. The AD300Pro II works with the separately available S3 or AD-AB adapters to expand your options with Bowens, Broncolor, Profoto, and Elinchrom mounts. This enables compatibility with optional beauty dishes, reflectors, a flash projection attachment, and quick release umbrella softboxes in different sizes and shapes.
