Godox DPiiiV Studio Strobes Complete Review and Guide

DP400iiiV:

DP600iiiV:

PERFORMANCE AND VALUE
Godox's DPiiiV studio strobes offer a great combination of power, performance and price. You will find this flash perfectly at home in any studio. If you don't need HSS and the extra low end range of the QTIII series then the DPiiiV studio strobes should be at the top of your list!

NEW LED MODELLING LAMP
Gone are the days of having to replace a broken incandescent modelling lamp. The Godox DPIIIV series uses a 30W COB LED to provide more power than a standard 150w incandescent.

THE STROBEPRO DIFFERENCE
Strobepro is the largest distributor of Godox products in Canada. Give yourself peace of mind with Strobepro's helpful staff, 2-year warranty, and Calgary-based service centre.

POWER RANGE
The Godox DPIIIV has an impressive 7 full stop power range of 1/64 - 1/1. It can recycle super fast from 0.1-1.0 seconds with a flash duration of 1/2000 - 1/800. At this price point there isn't another strobe on the market offering this performance range.

COOL AND EFFICIENT
Thanks to the new 30W LED, the DPIIIV runs much cooler and draws 120 watts less power with the LED running at full power.

BUILT IN X-SERIES RECEIVER
No external receiver is required. Just pick up a compatible Godox X-Series controller and you'll have everything you need to trigger and control your DPIIIV strobe right from your camera.

Great review and description of how it works - and with the wireless controller.

[firesmaug]

Amazingly complete tutorial about the strobe, Thanks for all the info

[thuctran]

I was unable to connect my xpro with dp600iii-v. Thankfully due to the ID setting, they talk again. Thanks for detail review ❤

[dhammaratiwaddell]

really thorough, helpful video, thanks. and a bonus to get such clear instructions on the controller I use already.

[hillscp]

Awesome video. Thanks for steering me through the confusion.

[ministryofmainstreet]

Many thanks for a really informative video. I have just got these lights and am glad to have found you.

[AshishBalkhande]

Great help, thank you so much for putting your effort and time. 👏😇👍

In the beginning at unboxing you mentioned "a couple of fuses" . What are they for? Furthermore this video explains a lot, I agree that the information in the box is not. I just try to test the X3 transmitter*, meanwhile I noticed that my Calumet trigger and receiver I used to use before works well to trigger a Bowens strobe and two Godox III 600 strobes. (*Still have to find out if the X3 (with Nikon hotshoe) works with the Hasselblad X1d, it should).

they also need a blocker flor the umbrella slot, just like the one on the fv 150/200. Try using a ub 165 facing the ground. No go !

[patrickvaughn]

Hello first I want to say thank you for all of your information that you have given us over Time regarding Lighting. What I would like from you if you would please do a tutorial on the flashpoint 600 pro II or the godox 600 pro II . Especially regarding the high-speed sink / or freezing Mode scenario that they have for this light I am completely lost when you enter the realm of the 512 set up that they have and then the freeze mode that they have in the system unfortunately I have not seen any videos whatsoever at all regarding this or explaining how it actually works. There are a few other issues inside the menu that's a little elusive as well can you go over each one of those especially the odd ones you have your normal settings that are self-explanatory and then there's a couple settings in there that are confusing and I'm not sure exactly what there for. Once again thank you and I hope to see some information on this light in the future

Please Godox DP600 III How to fix please make to video

[feelathome]

Can you please confirm for me that this one works from 100 vac to 240 vac?

[bme]

I assume this does not work in TTL mode.

[diegofernandezfotografo]

Oh man, I melted my SK400II cover with a bulb lamp. It's really terrible!

[tomlallyarchive]

awesome good video here! I can get the Pixapro KINOII 600+ at £185.99, I hear this is the same as the QS600? or I can get the DP600III-V for £198. Which one is the best one? Thank you so much.

[yrudy]

Another question would you be comfortable using it on half power in a fast paced photoshoot?

[henryrichie]

Is that Godox SA optical snoot fit into Godox DP400iiiV /600iiiv /800iiiv /1000iiiv ?

[RodrigoHudson]
