Godox

I have two brand new Godox 850s and they work fantastic. However, I always grab my SB 5000s as they are matched perfectly with the Z9 and D850. Plus I use the remote flash function with the Nikon radio attachment.

Good to hear more kudos for Godox. I've got a bunch of older flash laying around in here somewhere, but I don't think they'll talk to the Godox? My use of flash is restricted mostly to on camera fill and times of unexpected poor lighting, so the one I ordered should keep me amazed for awhile. Maybe it will motivated me to play more with flash?

Godox TT685, AD200 Pro, and X pro trigger have worked great for me.

I use a TT350o Godox for my Olympus cameras. It is small and, in my experience, requires flash EC or a high ISO setting often. That does not bother me.
Lately I have been using it in TTL mode for fill-in with great results. For a small flash it is full of features, one of them High Speed Sync.
I highly recommend this flash for Olympus and Panasonic cameras.

I have one or two Vivitar. I know one of them I can't use on a camera that doesn't support high voltage sync. I have too many flashes I don't know exactly what I have now.
There is a small attachment that you can get to allow you to use an old flash with high voltage safely on your digital camera. I got one it have not had any trouble with any old flash both on the camera or m old studio lights.

I know those attachments. I have enough flashes that I can simply not using the ones that can damage my camera. Those adapters cost more than the flashes are worth. I can build them too but I just don't bother.

Both my Nikon SB800 and SB500 work just fine on my Z50. The 500 is sooh light and uses just 2 batteries instead of the
800's 5. But I'm partial to the older 800.

Complete compatibility can be an issue. I bought a GODOX TT350C under the impression that it would be compatible with my Canon R50 and after I got it I found out that I needed an adapter.

I was tempted by the SB 800 as MPB has several used ones in the $120 neighborhood that includes a three year extended warranty, but I decided on a new Godox since they are so affordable. Once I receive this one, I'm going to gather up all the old stuff to see if anything will play nicely with it and if not, sell them all. I know there are at least two Sigmas, a Bower, a Bolt and a couple of Nikons squirreled away.

Due to the popularity of the Godox, Younguo flashes I can buy a few of the Nikon SB-800 which is TTL compatible to almost all Nikon cameras. It supports TTL, D-TTL and i-TTL and Nikon CLS. It also has the AA mode which provide automatic flash exposure with any camera. This feature is missing on the newer flashes like the Godox.
Thank you.
Thank you.

I have a Godox 685 for Olympus, and find it straight forward to use. Actually I like much better than my Olympus speedlight. I watched a couple of videos on You Tube that were helpful when I first started using the Godox.

I would suggest that you are missing out on 9/10 of the Godox product line. The Godox system works well with off camera flash. Godox makes a controller and you can have multiple flashes going off. It’s not all that difficult and is fun to do. Add a few soft boxes and you may find a whole new aspect of this hobby.
The down side is the menu system for Godox is wonky. I have to refamiliarize myself periodically.
For fun look up the grey card method of flash with Tim Payne on YouTube.
