J’adore l’esthtique rtro de ce flash, et il est aussi performant que styl.
La lumire est puissante et uniforme, et la temprature de couleur est bien quilibre.
J’ai utilis ce flash avec mon appareil photo Canon, et les rsultats sont impeccables, avec des images bien claires et sans ombre indsirable.
C’est un must-have pour tout amateur de photographie.
Ja, der Godox Lux Elf Retro ist technisch gesehen einer der schlechtesten Blitze den man heutzutage kaufen kann, aber wiederum ist es einer der schnsten Blitze, welche ich bisher in der Hand hatte
Nein, dieser Blitz ist, dadurch dass er einfach frontal drauf blitzt, wahrlich nichts fr sthetisch schne Bilder, aber dafr sieht der Godox so fancy Retro aus und verbreitet ein solches Feeling, wie es kaum ein anderer, aktueller Blitz schafft.
Ehrlich, bereits beim Auspacken konnte ich es kaum erwarten damit zu fotografieren, weil der Look und Charm der Bilder, welche mit dem Godox entstehen, versetzen einen direkt zurck in die 90er Jahre
Zudem macht es der Godox Lux Elf auch weniger versierten Nutzern unheimlich einfach, gute Ergebnisse zu erzielen und dank integriertem Akku, zieht er keinen Strom aus der Kamera Batterie
Nein, dieser Blitz ist definitiv nichts fr Technikfreaks mit dem Anspruch, mglichst aktuellste Technologie zu bekommen und nein, dieser Blitz passt meiner Meinung nach, definitiv nicht zu einer modern anmutenden Kamera, aber mit einer Fuji der X-T Reihe, einer Lumix S9 oder Nikon Zf und dem kleinen Godox, werdet ihr definitiv keine minute Langeweile verspren, versproche
Ce flash de forme originale batterie rechargeable ne fait pas partie des flashes puissants, mais il conviendra pour des photos de sujets pris petite distance. Son nombre-guide tant gal 6 pour une sensibilit ISO 100, sa puissance est peu prs quivalente celle d’un flash intgr dans un APN 24×36 compact.
Il dispose l’arrire d’une pratique couronne de rglage des puissances, d’un bouton de test de l’tat de recyclage des clairs, de l’tat de charge de la batterie, et d’un bouton S1/S2 de synchronisation avec d’autres flashes ( S1 pour la synchronisation avec un flash simple et S2 pour la synchronisation hors pr-clair avec un flash TTL).
Ce flash est fourni avec son tui de transport, un cble USB-C de charge, et une notice d’emploi en Anglais et Chinois uniquement. Le cordon de synchronisation n’est pas fourni.
Un tableau pratique (voir photo) est fourni dans la notice pour estimer les rglages adquats de distance + ouverture d’objectif pour photographier avec ce flash sous ISO 100.
On voit ainsi que pour un objectif ouvert f:4, il faut se placer 1,50m du sujet pour l’clairer correctement, ou bien ouvrir l’objectif f:2 pour bien clairer un sujet distant de 3m.
Dans la pratique, ce flash rpond assez bien sa description, son fonctionnement est sans problme sur plusieurs de mes APN compacts, avec des temps de recyclage dcents, et des photos correctement exposes.
Cependant, en raison de son faible nombre-guide, son prix me parait plutt lev.
Flash di buona fattura con design vintage. Si adatta a qualsiasi macchina fotografica siccome utilizza solo il pin centrale presente in tutte le slitte. La regolazione della potenza avviene manualmente attraverso una rotella sul retro che riporta le frazioni fino a full, piena potenza. Per essere molto compatto riesce a illuminare abbastanza bene nella media e corta distanza. Il diffusore riesce ad ammorbidire e diffondere in maniera sufficiente la luce. Comodo il fatto che si possa ricaricare via usb-c. Autonomia discreta, anche con tanti lampi di seguito. Ottimo per una piccola-media illuminazione senza portarsi dietro flash enormi.
This is a nice little flash with a modern take on a vintage design so ascetically it looks quite slick especially on something like an EOSM (SEE PICS).
What you get in the box is a small carry pouch, a USB-C charging cable and instruction booklet.
I tried this on an older EOSM and it does work, however note: it is a manual flash and will not allow you to access the flash func menu. Just set your camera to manual and it should trigger the flash.
The unit is light weight fairly compact and charges in just a few hours via any standard USB charger I feel its probably best to use a charger that is not higher then 2 amps. The flash is easy to use and ready to go in around 2 sec from power up. The flash triggered consistently without any issues. You have 5 power settings as well 2 extra settings that allow you to choose how the flash works such as an optical sec flash. The overall output appears fairly smooth as seen in some of my test pics.
QC is top notch with great build quality considering its all plastic construction, but does not feel cheap.
I feel its a nice little flash to have in ones kit, but may be slightly incompatible with some cameras.
This is not going to compete with expensive automatic TTL flashes in terms of features. However, it is simple to use, no nonsense, small, easy to charge, and with a nice circular light. I think it’s a good value, if you know what you are looking for. Another plus is that if you have a more compact size camera, this will help keep the camera more balanced, light, and discrete compared with a more typical external flash that may be 2 to 3 times taller.
PROS
-fun looking little flash
-looks great on retro-styled cameras
-easy to set power with big dial on the back
-better quality of light than pop-up flashes (not a _huge_ amount better, but better)
-can be fired remotely (there are two settings for reacting to other flashes)
-single pin, means it’ll work on just about any hotshoe with a centre pin
-some attempt was made to guide the user to the correct power setting
-internal battery, charged with USB-C
-lightweight and small
CONS
-fully manual: users are going to have to either use a light meter (pretty rare these days), or choose a setting and take a shot, then adjust up or down as necessary
-quite low power (it’s ok for closeup individuals or small groups)
-no tilt, it faces fully forward at all times
NOTES
-with its limited power and functionality this seems to me to be a beginner flash, but it being fully manual means it’s not all that beginner friendly. I’m a little confused as to where it’s supposed to sit in the market
MY STAR RATINGS:
1* substandard, mostly cons
2** barely acceptable, cons outweigh the pros
3*** meets the basic requirements, cons balance the pros
4**** good product, pros outweigh the cons
5***** exceptional, all (or almost all) pros
The design is very attractive at first glance, closer look it show many well thought features, e.g. build in rechargeable batteries (not replaceable), hot shoe quick lock, remote off camera flash trigger by flash, large flash reflections that create the old one time flash looks. Functionally, it works with my fujifilm x100vi, H2s, Nikon Z9.
