Tốc độ lấy nét của Xpro1 được đánh giá là chậm, ngay cả khi vửa ra mắt. Tuy nhiên, nếu đặt nó kế bên máy ảnh lấy nét tay như Canon QL19 hay Epson R-D1, nó lại khá hấp dẫn. Cũng vì vậy X Pro1 đang thu hút rất nhiều sự chú ý của các bạn trẻ thích nhiếp ảnh film, khi giá film đang tăng vọt so với 5-6 năm trước. Show Để tận dụng hết màu phim của Xpro1, bạn phải tự mò trên Youtube, FujiXweekly để lấy về các recipes màu phim theo ý thích. Ảnh buổi đi xem triển lãm ở Nam Thi House vửa rồi mình dùng recipe tên Kodak, màu ra theo ý của mình. Những thứ mình không thíchSau gần 10 năm chế tạo và cải tiến ngàm X, nhiều điểm yếu của X pro1 đã được Fujifilm cải thiện đến hiện tại Xpro3, XT4, X100V làm rất tốt rồi. Mặc dù so sánh với Canon, hoặc Sony tốc độ lấy nét vẫn chưa nhanh bằng. Mình thì thấy tốc độ lấy nét như trên con XT3 mình từng sử dụng đã là nhanh rồi. Điều đáng tiếc là Xpro 1 không có màu classic chrome, Which Godox wireless flash trigger should you choose? The Godox X trigger range has several options to choose from, so if you’re bewildered by the choice, we’ve saved you the time and effort of hunting down the important info with this comparison guide. We’ll look at the Godox X1-T, the Godox Xpro, and the Godox X2T and give you the lowdown on the features of each one. Godox X1 Wireless Flash TriggerThe Godox X1 Wireless Flash Trigger comes with a choice of mounts for Sony, Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic, Fuji, and Pentax cameras. The Godox X1 features an onboard hot shoe on the top, which enables you to mount a flashgun on top of the trigger for extra flexibility. The controls consist of a channel button, group button, and a mode button, as well as a control wheel and a test button on the top. The battery port is on the bottom, and it takes two AA batteries. The X1 wireless system supports all of the Godox range of flashes - from speedlites to the new studio strobes, and this includes the portable flashes like the AD400Pro and AD600Pro. The Godox X1 wireless flash trigger has a wide operating range from 0 to 100 metres (as all the triggers in this range do), so it’s great if you are shooting in a large studio or on location. This trigger is a bare-bones version of the other triggers, but it is actually quite advanced. While there’s not a lot of buttons to control it, there are a lot of functions to be found in the menu - it can be a bit of a pain to go hunting for them, though. There are a couple of hidden ports on the side - the micro USB port and a PC sync port. The micro USB port will let you update the firmware (Godox supports their older triggers and they do update the firmware so it’s always worth keeping up to date with this). As this is the budget version of the Godox wireless flash trigger, then there are some things that it is lacking. Rear-curtain sync function isn’t supported on the Godox X1, but is on the other two triggers in this comparison. There’s also less control with the flash output (you can only change in one-third stop increments), and no dedicated group buttons (this makes it less user-friendly than the other two triggers in the range). There are no wireless ID settings on the X1, while the XPro and X2 have them. Wireless ID settings have better connectivity so there’s less interference. The Godox X1 is the least expensive trigger in the range, and it has a smaller LCD display than the higher-end ones. However, if you want a nice, basic trigger that will do the job and won’t break the bank, then this trigger will suit you. Godox XPro Wireless Flash TriggerThe Godox XPro Wireless Flash Trigger has a larger LCD display than the X1, but it doesn’t have an onboard hot shoe. There are many different buttons on the front of the trigger as well as a new scroll wheel. One of the things Godox hasn’t changed is the locking mechanism that goes on your camera’s hot shoe. There’s been a few complaints that this locking mechanism gets damaged with wear and tear, or that it doesn’t lock that securely into the camera hot shoe. The trigger itself is full of user-friendly features. On the front are the dedicated group buttons (this is what was lacking on the X1 trigger), which means it’s easy to select groups just by pressing a button. If you have a lot of lighting groups, then this feature on the Godox XPro trigger makes it simple to control them and change the settings. Along the bottom of the Godox XPro trigger, you will find the mode, zoom, and sync buttons. You can also control the modelling lamp and go into the menu. The XPro has a proper menu, unlike the confusing custom function menu of the X1. Here you can cycle through many different options, and you can control up to 16 groups of flashes compared to 5 groups of flashes with the X1. Another interesting feature of the Godox XPro wireless flash trigger is the TCM function. This allows you to see what setting your flash was at when shot in TTL mode. If you press the TCM button when you shoot in TTL mode it will tell you the flash settings that were used. If you want to control large groups of off-camera flashes and prefer a user-friendly trigger then the Godox XPro is a good choice. Godox X2 Wireless Flash Trigger The newest Godox trigger in the range is the Godox X2 Wireless Flash Trigger. It looks similar to the X1, but it takes the slimline X1 trigger shape and adds a lot of the XPro features (including user-friendliness). The buttons and placements on the side are similar to the X1. On/off button, and AF assist beam on/off button. The IR port is also the same as the X1. The top of the Godox X2 flash trigger has more buttons than the X1. There are now dedicated group buttons to allow you better ease of use if you are controlling groups of flashes. There’s also a new feature - a Bluetooth icon on top, which supports connectivity with the Godox app via Bluetooth so you can control the trigger itself as well as flashes that support the Godox app. The Godox X2 trigger still has USB-C connectivity, and there’s also a 3.5mm sync port (as opposed to the Xpro’s 2.5mm port). On the front, there are three buttons with simple functions. The mode button also doubles as a lock button if you want to lock the trigger to prevent accidental button presses. The menu button does double-duty as the modelling lamp button, and there is also a set button. This button doubles as an ‘all’ button - if you want to change all your settings in one go, hold it down and it will set it to all. The scroll wheel that used to be on the side on the X1 is now on the bottom (which makes it easier to use). A major upgrade that lots of Godox customers have been asking for is the change of the hot shoe locking mechanism. It now has a twister lock that lets you lock it in place securely, then you press it down to release. Godox XProII Wireless Flash TriggerThe XPro was a popular choice among photographers, and this upgraded version packs many new features that make it an even more enticing option for photography enthusiasts. At first glance, the XProII resembles its predecessor; however, it is slightly larger and has a more pronounced grip. The XPro and XProII share exceptional build quality and sturdiness, but the XProII takes user-friendliness to the next level with its upgraded interface. The buttons are larger and offer better tactile feedback, simplifying the process of adjusting settings while you’re in the midst of a shoot. The XProII inherits all the professional-grade features of the Godox flash triggers. It supports TTL auto flash across various camera brands, stroboscopic flash, secondcurtain sync modes, and high-speed sync with shutter speeds up to an impressive 1/8000s. The XProII has an extra-large LCD screen and an intuitive display panel to enhance your workflow further. One of the most noticeable differences between the two models is the introduction of Bluetooth technology in the XProII. This allows it to sync seamlessly with the powerful Godox Flash Smartphone app. This feature proves invaluable when your camera is out of reach. This TTL wireless flash trigger also offers an optional single-contact function. This feature ensures speedy and sensitive triggering, ideal for those moments when you’re shooting in burst mode. With the single contact triggering, your flash fires rapidly with much shorter intervals, capturing those crucial moments with precision and consistency. Godox’s commitment to improving user experiences shines brightly in the XProII. With its enhanced features, upgraded user interface, and the convenience of Bluetooth connectivity, this flash trigger is a fantastic choice for photographers looking to elevate their craft.

It’s very user-friendly and does have that handy TCM feature we mentioned. If you want a no-frills trigger that gets the job done, then the X1 is the cheapest of the range. It still has all the features you’d expect of a wireless trigger, but it isn’t the easiest trigger for those who aren’t tech-savvy and can be finicky to use. If you want a trigger that marries the best of both the X1 and the XPro, then the X2 is a good choice. The drawback with the X2 is that it only controls 5 groups instead of 16 like the XPro, and it doesn’t come with the TCM function either. ConclusionAll of the triggers in the Godox wireless flash trigger range are good choices, but it really depends on what you want it for, and whether you’re a hobbyist or professional photographer. 5 flash groups are probably enough for most people, and unless you really want to know what settings your flashes were in TTL mode using the TCM function, you won’t miss it. It will depend on your budget and personal preferences as well as the type of use, but hopefully, we’ve helped make your Godox wireless flash choices a bit easier! |
