Godox MF-T76 Overview

Greater Precision & Control
Offering dual heads and a customizable design, Godox introduces the versatile MF-T76S Macro Twin Flash with 76Ws of power and Sony compatibility. Find clean illumination that reveals every detail of macro shooting scenes. The MF-T76S consists of two components: a controller, which slips into your camera’s hot shoe, and the dual head flash, which mounts on your lens. For installation, attach the MF-T76S to your lens with one of the eight adapter rings provided, ranging in size from 49 to 77mm. Load the included lithium battery onto the control unit, then mount it on your camera hot shoe for easy operation. The two heads are independently adjustable with a 0-150° tilt angle for direct illumination at close distances.

Improve Your Shooting Efficiency

  • The MF-T76S is a compact and portable macro/close-up lighting solution ideal for shooting food, products, insects, plants, jewelry, and other macro photography subjects.
  • Its twin head design allows you to set each side to different power ratios, enabling fine-tuning and higher contrast lighting when desired.
  • Adding to the unit’s TTL auto flash convenience, the MF-T76S offers HSS for sharp well-controlled images, as well as first and second curtain sync capabilities.

Light Shape & Depth Control
The MF-T76S has a guide number of 73.5′ at 100 ISO. It can also individually adjust the output power of each head from 1/1 to 1/256 or dial in exposure compensation and bracketing configurations. The result is balanced power between the two heads, which helps manage contrast and enhance depth to achieve fine textures. Two modeling lamps with 10 adjustable brightness levels are useful for low light scenes. The modeling lights help with focusing and previewing the light direction.

2.4 GHz Wireless System
Part of brand’s 2.4 GHz X wireless system, the MF-T76S works seamlessly with other Godox flashes in multi-light setups, so you can create a variety of lighting scenarios and different effects. The 2.4 GHz wireless technology enables long-distance transmission, adding more flexibility to your shooting. 32 channels prevent interference and disturbance when several wireless systems are working close to each other.

Rechargeable Battery & Hot Shoe Mount
The included lithium battery provides approximately 550 full-power flashes with a 1.2 second recycling time for a smooth, yet responsive shooting flow. The battery is easily rechargeable using the included USB-C cable. USB-C charging ensures reliable power for extended shooting sessions. Mount it directly on your camera’s hot shoe and start shooting.

AR-R Kit & Optional Accessories
Eight adapter rings are included for mounting to compatible 49mm, 52mm 55mm, 58mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm, and 77mm lenses. An optional MF-DD diffuser, color filter holder, and various MF-11C and MF-11T filters are available separately. These modifiers enable a wide range of tones and diffusion options. In addition, the MF-T76S is compatible with the optional MF-PL dental polarizing filter that is specifically designed for accurate color reproduction and improved dental macro photography.

OL: Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.2 LAB N Review – Very Sharp and Highly Recommended


Optical Limits published its full review of the Viltrox AF 35mm f/1.2 LAB N, and it shouldn’t be a surprise that the lens is highly recommended and it is even a little sharper than the origional non N version. The full review can be found here, and there is an excerpt from it below:

“It’s very sharp at f/1.2 already – and slightly better than on the non-N sample that we reviewed.. it’s stunningly good when stopped down a little. Lateral CAs are very low. Axial CAs are noticeable at large aperture settings… vignetting is typical… slight pincushion distortion in RAW images, which turns to slight barrel distortion when autocorrected… background bokeh is very smooth, and out-of-focus highlights are nicely rendered. The build quality is up to professional standards thanks to a weather-sealed all-metal housing… AF is quick and noiseless.

Pros

  1. Impressively sharp
  2. Superb build quality
  3. Affordable for what it is
  4. Improved aperture handling over the non-N version
  5. Good bokeh

Cons

  1. It’s heavy (but that’s to be expected)
