Round head flashes have become increasingly popular among photographers who value natural-looking light and smooth transitions.
With the release of the Godox V1 Mid, Godox introduces a new on-camera flash designed to deliver more even light, faster performance, and a lighter form factor.
Rather than chasing extreme specifications, the V1 Mid focuses on real-world usability—balancing power, portability, and lighting quality for everyday shooting.
🔵 Round Head Design for Natural Light Quality
Compared to traditional rectangular flashes, the round head design of the V1 Mid offers clear advantages:
-
More even light distribution
-
Smoother highlight-to-shadow transitions
-
Natural-looking catchlights, especially for portraits
Whether used for direct flash, bounce flash, or with light modifiers, the round head helps produce softer, more pleasing results that resemble natural light.
⚡ 55Ws Output with Fast Recycle Time
The V1 Mid delivers 55Ws of output, a highly practical power level for on-camera flash photography:
-
Ideal for portraits, weddings, events, and street photography
-
TTL auto metering for fast and reliable exposure
-
High-Speed Sync (HSS) up to 1/8000s for creative control
-
Fast recycle time for continuous shooting
This combination makes it well suited for photographers who need speed and consistency in fast-paced environments.
🪶 Lightweight Design for Comfortable Shooting
Portability is one of the V1 Mid’s key strengths:
-
Approx. 413g including battery
-
Better balance on mirrorless and compact camera bodies
-
Reduced fatigue during long shooting sessions
For travel, documentary, and event photographers, the lighter weight translates directly into a better shooting experience.
📡 Built-in 2.4G X Wireless System
The V1 Mid features Godox’s integrated 2.4G X wireless system, allowing it to:
-
Act as a master or slave flash
-
Integrate seamlessly with other Godox flashes and lights
-
Support multi-light setups with minimal complexity
This makes the V1 Mid not just a standalone flash, but a flexible part of a growing lighting system.
