Ghosts, Goblins and....Godox? The Epic Mod Battle and comprehensive Lab test you asked for!

No tricks, only treats in this feature-length video exploring all the tests I've been asked to run to evaluate the Godox AD200 & AD360 bulbs in various combinations to settle recent issues regarding light output from these pint-sized titans of flash, in those modified flash units of mine. I've even included the AD360 flash unit and AD600 for comparative kicks! To make it easier to navigate to those tests and results that are of specific interest to you, I've included a time index here that auto-links to each test, it's setup and the results. I recommend you start with the general intro, and then skip ahead (I won't complain ;-) ) to the section you'd like to see. Of course, I won't be the least bit offended if you pop up a fresh bag (butter optional!) and watch the whole sordid affair. Without further ado, here's the Index, so find your comfy zone and enjoy....

Data Summary for all tests can be found here: https://lookaside.fbsbx.com/file/Epic... TL;DR Recap: No real surprise, as the AD360 bulb continues to maintain its position as the winner in the power:light output ratio game. The eVolv Twin-Head adapter continues to wow with its near-equal performance to the venerable AD600 when teamed with a pair of AD360 bulbs; the real and pleasant surprise is the comparable, though diminished, performance of the Polaris SPD100 light meter, and its use as an alternative to the pricier, albeit more-fully-featured Gossen Digisky meter. BOTTOM LINE: From the results of all tests, it consistently appears the mod allowing interchangeability of the AD360 for the AD200 in a modified mount definitely improves light output; though YMMV a bit as to the gain in each instance. Stay tuned for more (and a whole lot shorter!) reviews and mods of recent photo tech. Be sure to subscribe, and look for the formal white paper on this to be released soon. And, as always, thanks immensely for your time, and for watching, and let me know if this kind of evaluation continues to be helpful. Jeff Ray, The Prototographer Steeped in Light Photography
