Feat. Manon & the GODOX AD600 pro II
Check out the previous video, where I got my hands on the AD600 pro II and X3. I decided to switch to version 2 and upgrade my remote a few weeks ago. I will share my thoughts about these new tools soon… especially after using all of Godox’s remotes in the past and the previous version of the AD600 pro. But before all that, I needed to have a bit of experience with them.
I now never do a review without using a tool for at least a few weeks. It doesn’t make sense to make one after using it for only a couple of hours. This is my 2nd video with these tools, but no not my 2nd session with them. I’ve done a few so I now have an idea who this is for, and if it was worth it for me to upgrade.

The first 2 images we made, were not supposed to end up in the final section. I only took a few, but didn't like the scene at first. When reviewing them after the session I decided to include a few of them just in case, and 2 of them made the final selection.
This is the typical situation where I am glad I have a Flash with me. I would probably be able to work without one, but having one gives me the option to consider any scenario, any scene any composition. When Working with only natural light without any accessories the light will dictate what you can use.

Like my previous session with Lisa, this is the only shot made with the IRIX 45mm f1.4 G-mount. I will share more about this lens next year. It's a manual lens, so it completely changes the approach for my portraits.

This would not be my work if there wasn't at least one shot or two with the use of lines and symmetry. I am always looking for those to accentuate the focus on the model and to guide the viewer inside my photos.

So let's be honest, if you've been following me for a while, you know that for these types of sessions, I usually use a Godox AD300 pro and a smaller softbox. The advantage is obvious, It's lighter, smaller and and I can easily pack everything into one bag.
I was able to do so here, with only two lenses in the bag. but the weight is still there. You got that bit of extra punch, more shots with a single battery, and better recycling time... Is it worth it? I will tell you in my full review!
The GODOX AD 600 pro II, the QR P90 T, and the X3 work well together as they should. Still haven’t experienced any issues so far, the combo never held me back. On my next BTS, I will use not one but 2 AD600 pro II outdoors. The QR P120T will be thrown in the mix, and we will use a familiar location just to see how much a 2nd flash could bring more to a session.
