BEST NIKON-DEDICATED FLASHGUN

Godox VING V860 III N £145/$209 Tested on www.digitalcameraworld.com

WHAT WE LOVE

A little flash can go a long way, but this one goes further. It has a powerful 20-200mm motorized zoom head with a Gn 60m/197ft rating at ISO100, plus a 10-level constant LED lamp, powered from a rechargeable Li-ion battery pack that ensures long-lasting stamina and super-fast recycling speeds. Indeed, 450 full-power flashes are available from a single charge. The battery delivers massively more lower-power flashes with virtually instantaneous recycling. A full range of advanced flash modes includes programmable stroboscopic output and, unlike many thirdparty flashguns, the Godox is compatible with the Z 6II and Z 7II cameras.

WHAT’S MISSING?

The interface looks a bit dull and dated.

WHY UPGRADE?

For power with control, a flashgun is one of photography’s essential accessories. This one offers high-end performance and wide-ranging features at a bargain price.
