Forget about any speedlight except SONY speedlights on SONY cameras. On my SONY A9III, the flash speed you get out of the Sony HVL-F60RM2 is absolutely mind blowing. The flash processor and the camera processor talk to each other and automatically does all the adjustment. This small 60 Joule flash works at in Hi+ (120fps), 1/16000, f/1.8, ISO 250 without any problem. Every pictures is perfectly sharp, with excellent colour. Just put it into the hot shoe on the A9III and start shooting in any mode. No fiddling, nothing. This is by far the best speed-light for SONY cameras. Nothing comes close. Period. With AF-C, the flash automatically adjust the exposure to where you focus the camera while tracking a fast moving object. Forget all the other flashes.
i got a a7r iii what do I go with?
Thanks, told me just what I needed to know. Just got one myself and will be testing it out this weekend.
Happy to help. Thanks for watching 🙏🙏
Goodreview. Does it pre fire in TTL auto mode or not .I got V1S and using with sony a7siii camera. It does not pre fire in auto mode which sucks and no help from Godox
Any non-Sony flash flash TTL compatible with A7IV? Manual works great when in studio but in light-changing ambient TTL is really needed
Can we shoot that continuous shots using previous model (868 ii) @ 1/16 settings?
please answer my question, i just bought v860 ii and x2t for sony a74 but cant attach to body, flash contact pin seems a bit thicker, does a74 support v860 ii??
The Gary Fong Lightsphere link goes to a product that is no longer available. Is there another one you recommend?
Great presentation really appreciate it. Sony flash costs to much, I will go to good. when I get it how is the tech support for setting it up.
I had godox TT685 s and after 4 consecutive fires (TTL mode) on a7iii, i saw that 2 were dark( didn't fire) so......i don't know if should i try another godox ( one friend of mine had the same problem with godox v1 on a7iii -maybe not 2 of 4 but 1 of 4 for sure miss the fire)..do you know something about this godox issue?
Hello friend. I want to know if the rotation its easy because on Godox v860II its hard. And its has damage my Sony camera.
Great video! Do I need to get a radioflash to use this on my Sony a6600? Or the wireless mode of my camera is enough to connect it with the flash?
If you want to control the flash wirelessly, watch this video: th-cam.com/video/K40sXOcTU7M/w-d-xo.html
When I shoot over 1/200 with other 3rd party flashes on my sony a7, I see a black curtain from the top of the image. And this increases the higher I go. Will v860 solve this problem?
I have a V860III (the new one) and Sony A7III! They work perfectly!
They really do. I love it. Thanks for watching 🙏
@@njs.p.7933 I dont use TTL. I aways shoot Manual mode in wedding!
Just got this for $160 on Amazon. This and the V1 are by far the best flashes I've ever used. I kind of like the novelty of the round head (V1) but the TTL and manual button on this one along with a minimal power increase makes this one equally as good. I love Godox products.
I wholeheartedly agree with you 🙌🙏
which one is newer? V1 or V860iii?
@@electronicfellows2113 The 860iii. V1 came out Sept 2020 and the 860iii Aug 2021. The pros I mentioned above are what makes the 860iii stand out to me even though I really like them both. They are both so good it's really about what you think you would enjoy the most.
@@electronicfellows2113 v860 iii is slightly newer
Hi, great review! Do you know if this flash will work with the Sony A9? Thanks
Yes it does
yo this is dope bro thanks for the info,
how many batteries do you think are necessary for a weeding? 8 hour ish
Thanks man. 🙏 2 batteries should be good for that.
New sub here. This was a great video. I am having problems for the first time with my Sony HVL-F60M flash on my Sony Alpha 1. The hotshoe and the flash seem to have a flaky connection I keep getting an error message. So I started looking for the "Best hotshoe flash for Sony" and I landed here lol. I really love the video man thank you. Do you still rcmd this flash a year later or do you rcmd something else thats better / newer?
I definitely still recommend this flash. I use it all the time and it works great. 🙏
Do you know more flashes for Sony cameras like this? I would like to know it
Why if I turn it on does my A7iv screen kind of lights up and corrects the image?
Dude, this video helped me understand one thing; I need to lower the output to achieve more shots, this coming from a Godox 860II on a Sony a7rIVa. I missed so many shots this last shoot I had, I am so upset. Thanks though! I need a new flash.
Happy to help. Thanks for watching. 🙏🙏
Thank you for your very informative video, do you know if this Godox v860iii ew flash is compatible with the Sony A7RV...?
Yes it is compatible 🙌🙏
Does it work on the Sony A7R4 ?
We can use ttl option in 860 ii
thank you! I need for sports
Happy to help. Thanks for watching 🙏🙏
If you’re to use it outside of the hot shoe do you need a trigger or can it fire directly?
You need a trigger. Here's a video

Great video
Happy to help. Thanks for watching 🙏🙏
Hi. I own 3 godox strobes for nikon, if I switch to Sony can I use the nikon flash with the Sony camera using a Sony xpro controller. Ttl would be nice too. Thanks.
I haven't tried it to be honest, so I'm not sure. But let me know if you find out
Yes you can
Excellent and very clear,,, I wanted to ask you a question to see if you can help me... I wanted to know if this Flash is compatible with the Sony A7IV, so what I would be most interested in is if it works "GOOD" "GOOD"... with sony
Thank you very much and greetings from Argentina
Yes it works great with the a7IV. I use it a LOT with my a7IV and it works great! 🙏
@@DoubtMeTech Good morning and thanks for your answer... The most important thing is to know if the "Focus Assist Lamp" of this Godox 860iii works WELL on the Sony A7IV camera
@@marceloalonso1066 unfortunately, for some reason, no godox flashes have a focus assist lamp that works for the sony cameras.
@@DoubtMeTech te agradezco por tu respuesta saludos
I could NOT acquire a GUIDE NUMBER CHART from the manufacturer. If anyone has this and is willing to share, please post a link here. I have owned and enjoyed the V860iii for a month. I'm not a rapid-fire user but am a deliberate-shooting amateur who sometimes uses legacy (i.e., fully manual) lenses and camera operation. My camera is a Sony crop-frame a6000. So, again, I enjoy using the speedlight in manual mode and I'm comfortable with charts and interpolations.
Hi does this flash work with the Sony A911 and the Sony A7R4A - thanks.
Yes it does
Been struggling to find a good speedlite for my Sony a7iii. I was told that most of the godox speedlites are incompatible with my camera regarding TTL. Is this true? And if so what speedlite should I get?
Not true. I highly recommend this flash for the a7iii. It's amazing and TTL works great
@@DoubtMeTech thank you for the reply! Will check this one out.
Hi, great video, i take it this flash will work on the sony a99ii camera.
Yes it will 🙌
Great video but somehow I end up with problem using Godox v860iii and Sony A74 and want to ask if you have similar to my experience. I was trying to mount the flash on my camera but it is really hard to enter the flash shoe into camera flash slot I need to push really hard even to enter the shoe halfway into the slot and In one moment I refused to push further, because Im scared of bracking something. On the other hand i have Godox v860ii for Olympus and test to put it on the camera - the shoe slide in the slot with no resistance at all.
Before mountin the flash I removed all caps from the camera and the flash, alsow I made sure to unlock the locking mechanism on the flash
Make sure the lock is not on. Make sure the cold shoe lock is off, and it should slide in easily. Once it's in, the twist the lock on
@@DoubtMeTech Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately the lock is not on, so the problem is not there. With some force and a lot of wiggle I menage to do it. I was ask other users of Godox v860iii and some of them experience problem like mine (non of them have A7iv though)
I don't have the flash or camera but are you sure you bought the Sony version of the v860iii since they make them for each brand of camera.
@@TheGeocab Absolutely :) the flash is for Sony. I actually resolved the problem - just sand off some part of the flash hot shoe and now she slides easily, probably end up with defective hot shoe
@@vinse81 I'm glad you got it solved. I may be buying this flash. Just a beginner looking to improve and this flash sounds great. But so does the V1.
Those pictures are really pretty ❤, is that direct flash?
Yes they are. There is some post processing as they are edited in Lightroom, but there was no other flash or light used; just the on-camera V860 III
@@DoubtMeTech Wow Thanks for responding! im just learning how to take pictures.
This ideally should kill some of the banding issues I’m having at an indoor gun range where I have uneven lighting and at 1/320th or higher shutter speed
And when I push up into the 1/1000 or higher it’s about 6-8 horizontal black bands across my images
I know I can fix them in photoshop but still annoying
Which is d d best flash for Sony a 7V Camera ?
This flash
Do you just pointed straight to ppl? Or is pointed up? Ty.
I almost always point straight up if theres a white ceiling. Or an angle. If i have to, i point straight, but i try to avoid that.. And I always use a Diffuser.
th-cam.com/video/l5CVRifsr9o/w-d-xo.html
Hello, it’s been a year since this video, are you still using this flash, is it still you go to flash? What is you view of the round heads?
Yes I still use this flash all the time and it's held up really well. I highly recommend this flash. I had the round head but I prefer this style
Thank you, have ordered it!
Which is better, this one or the the v1?
I prefer this one because there are more modifiers/accessories you can get with it being a more traditional design
@@DoubtMeTech can you mention what modifiers or accesories you mean? i wanna buy this for my zv e10 but needs more info about the product. thank you.
Hi man will this Flash work on my Sony a7iii..?
Yes it will. It's awesome
@@DoubtMeTech awsome if you don't mind me asking how can the flash connect to my sony..? Wirelessly or there's a wire in the box that allows me to conect the flash directly to the camera, is cause it's my first flash I would own.
@@formx9796 It connects directly into the hot shoe mount
My comment: for now, Godox v860 III S has completely incompatible TTL mode with Sony A7RIV (A) and probably with others A7Rs. All pictures are underexposed -1ev... -3ev. Compensation helps but its value is difficult to predict. Most likely it depends on zoom. The same object taken at 24mm and 70mm from longer distance gives different compensation requirements. I'm in touch with producer - maybe it will be fixed in the future.
What flash do you recommend?
@@PaparaZZi1920 Hi. Today we have no choice, only Sony branded flash is fully compatible. I was asked by Godox to make some measurements in order to tune up the firmware of theirs products like mentioned V860III, AD100, AD600 etc. So there is a chance that these product become fully compatible in TTL mode. For now, manual mode is perfect. In TTL mode, it is also possible to work - if you accept the necessity of increasing ev. Unfortunately this value varies depending on zoom length.
Is it still good as of today in 2022 for sony ?
Yes definitely. I use it all the time. It's great! 🙌
Where i can find that?? Filter?? Geri pong ligth??
Gary Fong Lightsphere: amzn.to/2XUOidp
Its not available on Europe 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
So, how many fps can this flash shoot on an A9III?
The speed of multi flash is dependent on the output power chosen on the flash due to its recycle time. So you'll need to lower your output power to increase recycle rate in order to do more rapid flashes
@@DoubtMeTech I don't mean multi flash, which is multipel flashes for one pictures. Can it flash at every pictures, when I shoot 120 fps or less such as the SONY HVL-F60RM2 can?
Compre este flash y se desprendio el zapato del flash no me duro ni un evento.
They also make it for Olympus/Panasonic.
Yes you're right 🙌
Actually sony flashes are the best when it comes to color renditions ! They work really good ! And only downside is batteries .. but these godox are cheap and not the greatest! I use both flashes … thinking getting the godox pro flash
It does even fit Sony a7, if you push hard to force it into hot shoe , it will damage your $$$ camera
It fits perfectly fine. Make sure you don't have it locked. Make sure the cold shoe is unlocked so you can slide it in. Then lock it once it's in
Zoom range of 200mm-200 mm? U said the same shit wtf eh? 5:00
Still the hotshoe is made of plastic. It will break easily. Why is nobody speaking on that cheap plastic hotshoe?
They just replaced it with a metal hot shoe. Check out my new video: th-cam.com/video/nzZuzkOu6VU/w-d-xo.html
Is there a compatible flash that's better...Godox V1?
Too much lighting on these photos.
Waste of money for sony user. Instead this buy tt600 with x2t. Very good combination. If have money then buy ad200pro or ad 300pro.
please answer my question, i just bought v860 ii and x2t for sony a74 but cant attach to body, flash contact pin seems a bit thicker, does a74 support v860 ii?
Did you buy the Sony model?
