Godox has announced the Godox AK-R21 Projection Attachment. It’s compatible with Godox lights that have a round head, like the Godox V1 speedlight, Godox AD100Pro and the H200R round flash head for the Godox AD200Pro. It’s also somewhat compatible with Godox’s regular-shaped speedlights when used with the AK-R25 square-to-round head adapter.

It’s essentially designed to turn your flash into a projector – in a similar fashion to products like the Light Blaster – letting you create different lighting effects with your Godox lights using various slides. The modifier itself, though, only comes with a couple of demo slides. If you want more, you’ll have to buy into the Godox slide kits or make your own.

The adapter that I made has slots for different kinds of gobos between the strobe and the lens
