GODOX Auto Flash Transmitter Unit 'X ProII' Announced for Leica | Kenko

Kenko Professional Imaging Corporation has announced the GODOX 'X ProII' for Leica. The release date is May 10, 2024. The price is 21,780 yen (tax included).

The transmitter unit compatible with various TTL auto flashes features high-speed sync up to 1/8,000 second and first-curtain and second-curtain sync modes. It is characterized by intuitive operation through a large LCD display. Additionally, it offers multi-channel capabilities with 32 channels and 16 groups, allowing for 99 wireless ID settings and signal transmission up to 100 meters.

Moreover, in complex wireless environments, the scan function automatically searches for backup channels and IDs, reducing preparation time. The multi-shooting feature allows simultaneous shooting of a single object from different camera positions, enabling shared use of the same light by multiple photographers.

With the TCM function, instant conversion from TTL mode to manual mode is possible. The reverse operation is also available, allowing for changes while retaining flash parameters for proper exposure.

The locking mechanism uses a quick lever for faster and safer locking compared to traditional dial types. Furthermore, it integrates with the Sekonic exposure meter 'L-858' with a built-in 2.4GHz module, allowing direct adjustment of parameters after metering. Using the app, control is also possible from smartphones or tablets (Bluetooth connection).
