Check out these eight 3D printed photo & video tools designed to make your life a little easier

by 6 Comments

I put off getting a 3D printer for the longest time. I didn’t want to get one just for the sake of having a new toy that I’d get bored with, so I held off getting one until I felt I had a genuine need for one. Now, I have five – the most recent of which are the Snapmaker 2.0 A350 and its predecessor, the Snapmaker Original, and I find them absolutely invaluable.

I’ve been using them recently to print a bunch of tools and accessories to help me with my photography and filmmaking. Some of them are workflow and organisation accessories while others are actual tools used to create content. So, here, I’m going to talk about some of the most useful things I’ve printed lately.

The first review of the Godox AD100Pro shows a versatile flash, but it’s not for everybody

by 4 Comments

The Godox flash lineup is ever-expanding. It’s just something we’ve come to expect now. But when they recently announced the new Godox AD100Pro, it made a lot of people go “huh?” [insert John C.

Well, yeah, kinda. But also no. In this video, Rob Hall goes through just about every feature and detail you could possibly want to know about the Godox AD100Pro and… well, when you watch it, the existence of this light and why you might want one or several in your bag actually starts to make sense – at least for some shooters.

The new Godox AD100Pro is their smallest strobe yet and features their magnetic round head

by 8 Comments

Godox has launched its tiny new Godox AD100Pro strobe. Coming in at a modest 100Ws, it’s significantly smaller than even the AD300Pro strobe, which is already pretty compact, and is powered by the same battery as the Godox V1 speedlight. As with all of the strobes in the Godox lineup, it’s compatible with the Godox X 2.4Ghz wireless system,

Unlike the AD300Pro, this new tiny light has no bare bulb and features just the round head with magnetic modifier mount, like the V1 and the Godox H200R round head for the AD200 and AD200Pro lights. But it does fit into the Godox S2 bracket for when you want to add Bowens mount modifiers.
