Godox QT400IIIM studio flash with mains power

Godox QT400IIIM flash with mains power

The Godox QTIII series is designed for photographers who demand speed from their flash. Compared to the previous II version, this III version is even faster and has an LED modeling light. The sturdy aluminum-shelled QTIII series includes HSS and the fastest charging and firing time compared to other flashes. In addition, the studio flash has a Mask function and MultiFlash support. The QTIII series is available in 400Ws, 600Ws and 1200Ws.

• Godox's fastest mains-powered flash series
• Metal body and otherwise sturdy looking flash
  
• Includes HSS, Mask Function and MULTI mode (these are not available in Godox QS II, DP II SK II series flashes)
• Really fast 0.01-0.9 sec loading time
• Flash speed from 1/29600 to 1/670 sec
• MULTI-Mode or Multi-exposure at 30Hz frequency (max 99 flashes)
• Autodump: No (This means that when you reduce the flash power, the excess charge in the capacitor is not automatically discharged. The excess charge must be discharged by pressing the test button, or by taking a picture. If the charge is not discharged, the first picture after the power is reduced will be overexposed)
  
  

Godox QT400II has a power of 400Ws. The flash power is adjustable from 1/1 - 1/128 and there are 50 steps in the adjustment range. In addition, the flash has a 40W LED control light, the power of which can also be adjusted.

The mains-powered Godox QT400 III is a manual flash unit, so there is no TTL here, but the QTII series is designed to shoot at high speeds for very short exposures - whether that's a fast shutter speed or a very short flash duration. While the HSS offered by the QT400 II flash may not always be necessary in the studio, HSS is helpful when you want to freeze the motion of fast-moving subjects, such as dancers or objects flying in the air.

One target group of the QT series is also product photographers as it includes a mask function. The Mask Function is used in product photography, where you usually want to mask out the background. The main lights are placed in one group and the background lights in another group, which gives you a lit image of the product and a white background/black silhouette image, which makes masking possible.

The Godox QT400IIM flash has a built-in 2.4G radio, which allows for remote flash control and the use of Godox battery devices in the same flash set. This means you can combine the QTIII series with, for example, the battery-powered Godox AD series, or the mains-powered QSII, DPII and SKII for the same shoot.

The QTIII supports Godox X1T, X2T and XPro 2.4Ghz triggers. In addition, the flash's USB port also allows the use of older triggers.

In addition to the optional trigger, the QT400III studio flash settings are controlled from the rear panel of the flash and displayed on the easy-to-read LCD screen. The QT400 has several flash modes - Stable Color Mode, ideal for most shooting situations, prioritizes accurate 5600K color reproduction. High Speed Mode favors short flash times for freezing fast motion, whether it's sports or freezing water droplets and splashes in the studio.

The device has a Bowens mount, meaning a wide range of light modifiers are available for the flash.
