Lighting in photography is all about knowing how to use and control the light you have. I have used the AD200 and even used a V1 in outdoor photography and got amazing results. Thanks for the video.
I think the only other comment here so far missed the point you made repeatedly. I agree with you. Not many videos on the Godox AD 200/200 pro being used outdoors. Again, the comment below talks about the better modeling lamp of the 300 pro, and the modeling lamp is certainly useful (indoors) for me. This said, you can pop a round head on the AD 200 pro (if you can find one that fits correctly - took three tries and two returns), and solve the better modeling light issue - and modifiers as well (magnetic kit). For the price, my experience with the AD 200 pro has been very useful, and a great way to get started indoors and out. There are situations where I'd need a bit more distance between subject and light (and a larger light source) where the 200 might struggle to fill the bill, but other than that, for what you were shooting, clearly good for your needs (and I'm sure lots of others).
thanks for the response and for catching on! when I was looking for reviews on the AD200pro, i didn't see many people speak about its outdoor use case. there were many commentaries and breakdown of the specs, but no one really provided any photo samples or experiences in real time so I was hoping I could capture some of that in this video. for the price, the weight, and portability, you cant go wrong with the ad200pro so im glad to hear its been useful for you as well! i have a Bowens adapter for the ad200 pro, along with other modifiers so maybe next time I'll take it out with a few modifiers to show what it can do outdoors 😁
@@flproductions90 Agreed. I have the S2 Bowens mount as well and use it indoors with the Cheetah Stand 34" rapid box (bulb attachment) or with one of the several magnet modifiers with the round head (i.e. gels, barn doors, grids, diffusion, or snoot). I have not used the 200pro outdoors a lot yet, but I'll test it out as well with those modifiers.
Really no point in getting an AD200pro now that the AD300Pro exists. It's smaller, has more output, has a modeling light, and has a better mount with much better modifier options.
thanks for the comment! while i do agree with all of these points, the purpose of this video was to show that even a smaller and cheaper flash like the AD200Pro can still be a great tool for problem solving when it comes to outdoor shoots. i did consider the ad300pro but for the price, half the weight, and the form factor, the ad200pro is still great for both indoor and outdoor usage.
Yeah you right about the size. But the ad200 is far more versatile then that of a ad300. You can change the heads,you can use two ad200 with an adb2 to get 400w,You can use the ring flash which is great for events. AD 300 you just stuck with what you got after buying it. I have 3 ad200 pros and I want one more

Your setup is nice for wind too.
Luv Godox. I own 1AD200 2 AD100 & V1. Actually UA-cam has lots of review on the AD200. Nice video BYW. TY
Thanks for watching! Glad to see some godox love. Im eyeing the v1 right now and may get one for the near future 😁
Did you say there isn't many videos on this flash?
did you use HSS or ND filter for those outdoor photos? (because flash sync)
hi! I didnt, i just adjusted my shutter and ISO settings.
Where are you looking at 🙄
