1. Godox V1
The Godox V1-S is the first TTL flash from Godox featuring a round flash head and HSS support for Canon. It can achieve sync times of up to 1/8000 s. The flash can be used in all common modes such as TTL, manual, and strobe or multi. Additionally, the V1C can also be triggered via Godox X1T-C or Godox X-pro transmitters, as a corresponding receiver is already built into the flash. Light modifiers from the Godox AK-R1 set can be magnetically attached to the flash head. Besides the HSS function, the V1-S also offers flash exposure compensation, allowing the flash output to be adjusted independently of the actual exposure set by the camera. The FEB function (Flash Exposure Bracketing) is used to create a series of flash exposures, making it easy to find the optimal flash exposure for a subject without needing to make many adjustments. The V1C features an automatic zoom range of 28-105 mm. With a power output of 76 Ws, the flash is also capable of overpowering sunlight. The same transmitter can also control the AD600B, allowing for easy expansion of the Godox system without the need to constantly purchase new transmitters and receivers. What makes this flash unit special is that it operates not on AAA batteries, but on a lithium-ion battery. This battery allows for up to 480 flashes per charge.

The improved large-capacity Li-ion battery helps you get the most out of your shots with a charging time of 1.5s and up to 480 flash fires.

5. Nikon SB-5000
In the right light with the SB-5000 - the first radio-controlled flash unit. The SB-5000 is fast, reliable and versatile and provides outstanding illumination for both outdoor and studio photography. Radio signals enable use within a radius of 30 metres and support complex setups, both with the flash unit attached to the camera and unattached. Now you can work without a direct line of sight or in bright sunlight that would interfere with an optical signal. The new integrated cooling system enables over 100 shots in quick succession at full flash output. For photographers who want to spontaneously capture the decisive moment, the lightweight, compact SB-5000 offers clearly arranged controls for intuitive handling.
6. Godox MF 12
The Godox MF12 is perfect for macro lighting, allowing you to capture beautiful and sharp images of small objects like plants, animals, and insects up close. It is not only ideal for standalone use but can also be employed as a multi-flash solution when multiple units are attached to the mounting ring, creating a ring flash effect or other flexible lighting effects.
With the Godox Macro Flash MF12, you can take stunning and sharp photos of small subjects such as plants, animals, and insects from a close distance. The MF12 can be used alone or in combination with other flash units. For interesting effects and greater control over the light, multiple units can be attached to the mounting ring.
Its compact size leads to "invisibility": the MF12 illuminates the subject while easily hiding just outside the frame. The adjustable head allows for quick positioning, making extreme close-ups easily achievable. The multi-flash configuration of the MF12 significantly expands its versatility when additional flashes are mounted on the ring. Depending on the number of flashes and their positioning, the kit can effortlessly cover a wide range of scenarios.
The powerful battery allows for up to 500 flashes at full power with a short recharge time (0.01-1.7 s), ensuring enjoyable and lengthy sessions without worrying about power. After the session, you can easily recharge it using a USB Type-C cable.
