Westcott FJ200 vs Godox AD200 Pro

Westcott FJ200 vs. Godox AD200 Pro is a comparison between two very capable strobes for flash photography. The Godox AD200 Pro has been around for a few years whereas the Westcott FJ200 was launched as a competitor. Westcott FJ200 ($349 Cyber Monday) : https://adorama.rfvk.net/3bm0r Godox AD200 Pro : ($269 Cyber Monday) : https://adorama.rfvk.net/GYJQm Godox S2 Bowens mount Bracket : https://adorama.rfvk.net/1QGkx Size The Westcott FJ200 weighs 1.74 lb, whereas the AD200 Pro weighs just over 2 lbs. The FJ200 has a larger, circular body whereas the AD200 Pro has a shorter, rectangular body. I find this makes the comparison difficult, as despite being lighter, the FJ200 takes up considerably more space inside a camera bag. You can expect a single, covered FJ200 to fill the space of a typical 70-200mm F/2.8 slot. The AD200 Pro however can stack two units in the same space. Design To further complicate matters, these strobes have a very different design. The FJ200 is a barebulb unit. The AD200 Pro ships with 2 heads, a barebulb and a fixed focal-length fresnel head (aka a speedlight head). There is also an additional round head available for the AD200 Pro compatible with compact magnetic modifiers. The FJ200 does offer similar modifiers by way of reflector and snoot attachments, but they are less compact. The AD200 Pro’s dual head system is so popular because while the barebulb and round head are proprietary, the fresnel head is compatible with anything designed for on-camera speedlights, like Magmod and Flashbenders. Output When comparing the barebulb from both lights in the same modifier, both strobes produce a near-identical output, with the AD200 Pro producing only 1/10th stop of light more than the FJ200. The fresnel head of the AD200 Pro would be an even greater difference, however it’s not an equivalent comparison considering the light would have more narrow coverage. Color In my testing, both strobes offered near-identical color stability, with the FJ200 having a total drift of 252 Kelvin in it’s color stable mode, and the AD200 Pro having 261. Despite this similarity, I still consider the Westcott better at color because it’s Kelvin temp is much closer to the 5500K that flash photographers expect out of their strobes. The minimum Kelvin temp that the AD200 Pro produced was 5830K, and it went as high as 6091 in my testing. In their action freezing modes, the AD200 Pro experiences more Kelvin shift than the FJ200, but the FJ200 has a more persistent green tint across the entire power range. T.1 Flash Durations Flash durations are most important when it comes to freezing action. The FJ200 and AD200 Pro are neck and neck in this space. In their action-freezing modes, the FJ200 starts out with an edge at full power, but the gap quickly closes. At 1/64 power the AD200 Pro surpasses the FJ200 with shorter durations, and ends on top at minimum power. For real world use, the differences are so slim that you would not be able to tell the difference. Battery The Godox AD200 Pro offers about 10% more full power flashes over the FJ200 (500 vs 450). Westcott offers an AC power adapter to constantly power the light, whereas no such accessory exists for the AD200 Pro. Recycle Time The Westcott is impressive when it comes to recycle speed, as it recycles a full power flash in 1.3 seconds, whereas the AD200 Pro takes 1.8. This is likely a product of the larger and more spacious design giving more room for hot air to exit the body. Function Apart from the head modularity mentioned earlier, there is no significant difference in function of these lights. Both have TTL, HSS, Stroboscopic, and manual control all from a wireless remote. Finer Points The FJ200 has a color display with more contrast than the AD200 Pro The stand attachment for the FJ200 is stronger than the AD200 Pro, however most photographers using larger modifiers for the AD200 Pro use the popular S-bracket anyways. Both strobe’s barebulbs are proprietary and offer limited modifier selection, but both can fit in an S2 bracket which makes them compatible with any bowens mount modifier. 0:00 Introduction 0:13 This is a bad comparison 2:02 The FJ200 is more like an AD300 Pro 2:33 Overview of FJ200 Flash Design 3:51 AD200 Pro vs FJ200 Power Comparison 4:31 AD200 Pro vs FJ200 Output Stability 5:05 AD200 Pro vs FJ200 Color Quality 6:02 Battery Life and Recycle Time 6:41 Tested T.1 FDA 7:02 Function Comparison 8:17 Display / Interface Comparison 9:42 Mounting Options 10:04 Unique Accessories 10:54 Value and Conclusion My entire kit of gear : https://kit.co/robhallphoto Follow me on Instagram: https://bit.ly/2sj7Lsq Where I get Music and Effects: http://share.epidemicsound.com/tw3LG
