The Best Godox/Flashpoint Flash for Architecture, Interiors & Real Estate Photography? 

Man I loved this video. Thanks so much for sharing! I exclusively shoot recording studios and post production rooms. A lot of times they have no natural light or really harsh ceiling LEDs. I've learned so much from your channel about mimicking natural light and making flash look softer/more natural. It's really upped my game. Appreciate you dude 🤘

This video came at exactly the right time for me. Was planning on buying one of these today and then saw this. Thank you Matthew you've saved me a lot of research time!!

Your video has earned my rarest rating... Helpful.

Thank you for this helpful video Matthew! I'm a spanish photographer starting in the architecture niche and appreciate your content a lot. I also loved the vibes with the music ❤

Ad100pro for the win, you can pack 3 units in your bag and still have lots of space. The ad600pro is overkill for interiors. And in those rare occasions you're shooting a property with a super high ceiling a 300pro with a see-through umbrella will do the trick

Great video. Very challenging scenario there. More power goes a long way in such circumstances. Here in Ireland, it's usually overcast and most homes are not very big, so I rarely need more than a speedlight.

An option for the AD600 that I've used when shooting interiors is the remote head. No appreciable impact on power and permits having the body of the flash either in a bag over the shoulder of on the floor. By the end of the shoot I tend to be dragging the bag around on the floor rather than picking it up. LoL

Great comparison and I especially liked the comparison through the window. I was hoping you'd edit to show how the each bigger light is roughly 2x the power of the next smaller model.

This is exactly what I’ve looking into. The question I have is if you use a flash to light interior can you blend that with an ambient interior shot or will the colors be messed up? This was an extremely practical and useful video. Thanks

1st! Always great videos Matthew, thanks for being so detailed. Looking forward to the course, I enjoyed the AP Almanac course.

AD600BM & AD200 for me 📸

Thanks for the vid, that opened my eyes a bit on what other photogs do. I'd have shot it with 3 or 4 Godox 685s. One on camera with a baffle/card to stop the shadow of the fan then at least one on top of the picture frame to the right and one or to the left of the couch. I'm using a full frame Sony with crop lenses which makes the depth of field much better than full frame, I shoot at f5 or in this case I might drop down to 6.3. ISO is 200 (dynamic range is better). If the fall off is two much to reach the back corner I'll drop a flash right on the couch and hit the ceiling directly and mask it out later and replace the ceiling. I'd mask the window to get more clarity of the view and shoot one slightly over exposed ambient and drop it on top as a luminous layer in PS, -50% blend. It's a lot more work but the clients like it. The one positive of my technique is that everything fits in one backpack.

Always love to see your posts. Your videos are very understandable and helpful. Hope to see more videos soon. I am an architectural photographer based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. :)

MORE, give me more videos about flashes!))haha) Thanks for video Matthew!

I was saving for a big gun like the 400 or 600. But then I realised that you can buy a studio flash with wall power for a fraction of the price. Works for 90% of my applications!

Great comparison thank you Matthew!

Great video! Very educational!

Still waiting for the hair styling tutorial. Another awesome video! Thanks for taking the time and consideration to put these together. Question: if you personally had to choose a frame to edit from these photos, which would you choose? Maybe it’s a combo of a few but I’m curious which ones looked best to you.

Cool vid although I'm not a Godox guy. Regardless of flash brand the biggest takeaway for me was the use of the 7' umbrella. The resulting light is close to the quality/feel of the ambient light and shadows. In order to fill up the umbrella and enlarging the source would then require a more powerful strobe. I currently use octas and a 500ws strobe but will start bringing my 7' PLM along for the ride. On a complete side note because settings are to taste, but given Arizona, midday, no clouds in the sky I'm thinking sunny 16 rule for the view. Your setting would be almost three stops over, which to me is fine as I think the view should be brighter to feel natural. However you said the exposure was 2 stops under. The room exposure??? Please explain. Again the main point is that umbrella!!! Thanks

The 600 at 1/2 was pretty much perfect. My kit is a 600. 2x 200s and 2 of the TT600s. The 300 looks pretty attractive ergonomic wise. Was also surprised at how effective the TTs were when fired direct bare bulb. have a cool moody high contrast vibe. Ive actually never tried shooting direct like that. One question I had for ya is how do you go about deciding on your aperture? In the early stages of my career i basically stayed at f8 and I've been mostly at f11 for a couple of years now. Regardless of lens honestly. Still waiting on some of those thumbnails to make the channel BTW haha

Those stock reflectors you used are the worst you can have regarding output and even illumination.

🔴Great video! I was finding this type of video on RU-vid and finally you did, ✅but can you make video on these flashes using an octa box and direct flashing mimicking a natural light source? Would a TT600-type flash be usable or not for that? It will help us select a flash. thank you.

Nice video, Matthew. But where is ad200? 😊

Still use ad200 and manipulate with iso. Any consequences?

Great video as always. This is slightly off topic, but can you do a video about setting up your iPad remote with your camera? Equipment, software, etc. Thanks and aloha from Hawaii.
