What is the difference between godox ad200 and ad200 pro

If you’re wondering for the best strobe light for outdoor photography and shooting, then Godox has two models that fit the bill.

The two models are almost identical apart from some of the branding, and minor physical differences on the flash heads. And there is some physical differences between the godox  AD200 and godox  AD200Pro.

On the AD200Pro, the LCD display has been recessed into the back, mainly because if the AD200 was dropped, it often landed on the LCD screen and damaged it.

Godox AD200 PRO New Features: 

  • 9-Stop Power Range (1/256 – 1/1)
  • 1/10th-Stop Increments in Adjustable Output 
  • Stable Colour Temperature Mode ( +/- 100K° Across Entire Power Range)
  • Slightly Faster Recycle Time (Up to 1.8 Seconds in Full Power) 
  • USB-C Port for Firmware Updates
  • Slightly Recessed Control Panel with Added Bumper (for added protection) 
  • Added Buttons to Control Panel for Easier Navigation
  • Improved Metal Flash Holder with Stepless Angle Adjuster
  • Revised ON | OFF Switch 
  • Anti-Twist Screw Mount

Well, that depends on what your needs are as a photographer. If you need to shoot at fast frames per second, you need that very fine control over power settings, you’re a product photographer, or you’re just a little bit clumsy like so many of us are, the AD200 Pro is definitely worth the cost.

The AD200Pro is a great flash for wedding, events, and eCommerce photographers, and also for those who need accurate colour stability in their images. However, the choice you make all comes down to personal preferences, your budget, and type of photography you do.
