Adopting an innovative design, Godox introduces the V1Pro S Flash – distinguished by its round head and the addition of a detachable sub-flash that improves the fill light of your scenes. The Pro version utilizes a similar compact, shoe-mounted design to the brand’s original V1 flash while bringing additional features. Simply attach the included sub-flash to the front of the V1Pro S to improve your portrait shots in manual or TTL mode. This powerful 76Ws unit is compatible with Sony cameras with ADI / P-TTL automatic functionality. The V1Pro S offers a zoom range from 28 to 105mm along with the ability to rotate 330° and tilt -7 to 120°. Its round head boasts uniform light quality, facilitating creative effects and distinct looks.

Detachable Sub-Flash
Easily attach or detach the included sub-flash to your V1Pro S’s front. When turned on, the sub-flash acts as an auxiliary fill light that can be useful for portrait shots. Users have the ability to adjust the sub-flash’s output from 1/128 to 1/1 and -3 to +3 EV in 1/3 increments.

Powerful, Versatile On-Camera Light
The V1Pro S supports high-speed sync up to 1/8000 sec for managing bright backgrounds and shooting with wide apertures, as well as front and rear curtain sync and flash exposure compensation. Beside these characteristics, Godox has added a 2W LED modeling lamp that can be used for careful composition.

Rechargeable Battery
This unit is powered by an included rechargeable battery, which provides a recycle time of 1.5 seconds, fast enough to keep up with the action. The flash’s power output is adjustable from 1/1 to 1/256, giving you 500 full-power flashes with a single battery charge. When shooting continuously, the V1Pro S can fire 100 times at full power before the unit reaches its overheat protection stage. The included battery features a built-in USB-C port that allows you to charge it directly from any USB-C compatible device. Additionally, the V1Pro S works with the separately available PB960 flash power pack.

2.4 GHz X Wireless Radio System
Part of Godox’s 2.4 GHz X Wireless Radio System with a range of up to 328′, the V1Pro S is a 76Ws flash that gives you the ability to choose between 32 channels and different groups. This way users can avoid interference with other shooters or fire each flash separately for complex setups.

Other Benefits
In addition to the hot shoe, the V1Pro S offers a 2.5mm sync port for a wired connection. The flash has a magnetic surface for lightning-fast attachment of Godox’s optional accessory light modifiers.
