Godox SK400II Professional Compact 400Ws Studio Flash Strobe Light Built-in Godox 2.4G Wireless X System GN65 5600K with 150W Modeling Lamp for E-Commerce Product Portrait Lifestyle Photography

Such a nice product to have the power and not break the bank. Perfect for any level of photographer. L

5/13/2025: Still going strong. For anyone wondering if there are any issues or something to look out for. The lowest flash setting is at 1/16. This may or may not be a deal breaker. If you're shooting wide open at f/2.8 sometimes even with the lowest ISO (50 on my Sony), it can be too bright on product shots and need to use an ND filter.Also, this does not have HSS so with my a7R V at least, I can only shoot up to 1/160 before I see the dark strips near the top at 1/200.1/25/2024: I recently purchased Godox XProC II transmitter for my Sony and it works seamlessly with this strobe. In fact, the XPorC II transmitter works better with the strobes as it doesn't jibe with their V860II hotshoe flash (hit or a miss).I'm a full-time professional corporate photographer and videographer. I've had everything from Speedlite's to inexpensive versions of non-branded hotshoe flash, which I still use. Still, after not having a dedicated studio flash for some time, I needed one to not worry about batteries and be able to take photos quickly.I already have the Godox XPro-C wireless transmitter with Godox V860II, which also worked simultaneously with this SK400II. But after having it for less than a month, I decided that for this price, it was a no-brainer to have another and not bother with the battery.I mainly use this for product photography, which I often do for my job. I rarely go above 1/8 of power, and with the second one I just got, I'll have the fill light to be less than that. The light is more spread, unlike the speedlights mounted on an adapter. It fires consistently, and there are no issues with overheating.Combined with a 36~48" softbox, I can easily make either a dark or white background with my thunder grey paper background. It is more pronounced when using a honeycomb grid to control the light spill.Unless I'm trying to overpower the sun during the day or daytime portrait shoot, this has more than enough light with plenty of overhead.Keep in mind, the minimum output power for this strobe is 1/16, which may be too bright for certain applications. Godox has the 400W, but that can go as low as 1/64, which may be better for fit for certain applications.

Great Studio flash with seamless wireless conectivity using their transimitter. I paired this up with a godox TTL on camera flash and i didnt have to do a single thing to get it to work as soon as i plugged it in. Both flashes worked in their respective channels and adjustments were instant. Flash seems to be of very high quality with an almost all metal construction. Display is bright and the mounting point of the flash is very sturdy and stable. Ill be ordering another one.

The media could not be loaded. Replacement review:Original product sent was faulty, but replacement worked. Overall solid build quality. Transmitter/receiver works with my XT2. Really nice that the modeling light is LED. Doesn’t get too hot. Refresh rate is good: 10 shots in 11 seconds at full power.Original review:Just unboxed this brand new and it would not flash. Tried triggering the flash with the test button and with my own X2T transmitter, nothing worked. Modeling lamp works. Everything else seems to be working: buzzer, menus, group/channel options. They probably shipped this one out with a faulty bulb. Knocked off one star because I received a lemon at first. This is an excellent flash for “prosumers” as there’s really no need to spend double, triple, or more on a light when this model just works.

Works as expected with transmitter including the V1 as transmitter.If you travel better get a good bag and don't go cheap on the stand.

This is an economical 400ws flash. The build quality is good. The light is consistent. I wish it came with an umbrella reflector. It’d be one thing if it was a simple matter to find an appropriate one for a nominal additional fee. But no… I bought three different Bowen’s mount reflectors and not one had a ln umbrella hole that lined up with the bottom center. I purchased an adorama flashpoint equivalent and for some reason it came with a reflector. Hmm.
