Even if you could afford 6 speedlights, you just can’t pack them that close without them turning into one big fast studio strobe.

I think the intended use for Godox MF12s is to mount one or more flash units on a system of rings that fit on lenses with different filter thread sizes. You can position each flash head on the mounting ring at different angles so that you can always achieve your desired reults no matter how unorthodox. For added versatility, the flashes can be mounted directly to a lens via the included adapter rings and mounting ring that lets you mount up to six MF12 flash heads.The kit can easily support a variety of scenarios, depending on the number of flashes and how they are placed.

It's not only ideal to work on its own, but also can serve as a multi-flash solution when several units attach to the mounting ring (available separately), forming a ring flash effect orother flexible light effects as you wish. The MF12 has an Angle adjustment bracket, which can either be clipped on the multi-flash adapter ring if you own one, or connect to the Cold Shoe (and optional the Stand). I was particularly impressed when shooting the product shots I show in this series, as it can be easy for those to get blown out by lighting that’s not correctly controlled.The brand has been offering a strong range of powerful flash guns with features you would normally only find on much more expensive products in the past. As an off-camera TTL flash, the MF12 can work with the Godox XPro, X1, X2, and other wireless flash triggers that are compatible with main brand cameras such as Nikon, Sony, Canon, FUJIFILM, Olympus, and Panasonic.

These flash heads are supplied with Colour effects and colour temperature adjustment sets, which allow you to set the contrast, tone, colour, and more as per your preference. This makes me think I need the X2T, but won't I miss out too much on the user friendlyness of the XPro II? They are a very big company and a key player in the camera equipment market and I am honored by this invitation to review such an important piece of gear. Adapter ring set (optional) features 8 different sizes (49mm, 52mm, 55mm, 58mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm, 77mm) which matches most of the lenses.Fast and easy trade in service ensures your old gear is collected efficiently and you are paid quickly!

The hardest part about shooting field macro with a flash is trying to get good diffusion in a small space.MF-11T - A set of 16 colour gels that are perfect for controlling the colour temperatures in your photography. Due to the apparent light size principle the light will get softer as it gets closer to the subject, so softer shadows. I am sure they will be brought low by a noonday sun, they have a guide number of 16, for crying out loud, but I never once doubted that when I pushed the shutter these little gems would light up.
