Godox: Speed Leader #QT400IIIM #QT600IIIM #QT1200M Quicker Studio Flash Operation Tutorial
Built for speed, the QT600IIIM Flash Head from Godox is a 5600K daylight-balanced flash source with sophisticated features and advanced technology. The head features 0.01-0.9 sec recycling with flash durations as short as 1/26,100 sec. The QT600IIIM offers power that's variable from 1/256 to full power, while the 40W LED modeling light's output is variable as well. Settings are accessed via rear panel push buttons and displayed on the easy-to-read LCD screen. The head has several flash modes for performance options. Ideal for most shooting situations, Stable Color Temperature mode prioritizes precise 5600K color rendition. High-Speed mode favors short flash durations for ultra-sharp capture of peak action in sports or for creative studio work like freezing splashes or water droplets. The QT600IIIM also supports High-Speed Sync enabling the use of shutter speeds as short as 1/8000 sec allowing you to use wider apertures and other creative effects.
The QT600IIIM has built-in 2.4 GHz 32-channel wireless X technology. Using an optional X1, X2, or XPro transmitter, you can control selection of HSS and High-Speed modes, modeling light modes, remote triggering, and more at distances up to 164'. The head also has S1/S2 slave triggering that makes it easy to work cameras that employ pre-flash. Additionally, the QT600IIIM has a Bowens front accessory mount, allowing it to use Godox modifiers as well as accessories from the many manufacturers that use this system.

Godox QT600IIIM Reviews
It works, but has some annoyances
By David
Rated 3 out of 5

I really wanted to love these lights (I got two qt600iii and two qt400iii). We'll start with the bad: - Upon their arrival I noticed that they are much heavier than I expected - it speaks of build quality to an extent, but also makes them less comfortable to work with on booms and arms, requiring more sandbags. - After a few shoots I can say that Godox could (and should for the price) have done better. Yes, I get occasional misfires, not a complete disaster. The thing that drives me absolutely bonkers is that they sometimes fire at full power while clearly not set to such. No idea how to remedy that. - Also, and this is something I should have researched before my purchase, they need to be purge-fired when the settings are changed, or they will fire at previous setting. Most other lights I worked with either silently purged, or autopurged when the setting was lowered. - The menus are not quite clear, with a bunch of settings in mystery-meat submenus without any indication what they might mean. Must always refer to manuals. There are too many buttons, they can clearly do with less. - They are loud (POP!) when they fire, even at lower settings. The better: - Fast recycle - Consistent color when in color mode - Great modeling lights! Generally speaking, I don't find these to be better than anything else I've used (in a range of price-points). Considering that this is a third gen product, I'm surprised at all the quirks and design choices. My search for lights will sadly continue.
