Excellent back-panel calculator makes use, even in bright sun, do-able. Warranty works.
Excellent, and even the warranty works. I have owned two of these for three years, and as an electronics engineer, I spotted a failure IN ONE OF THEM after six months of use. I appealed to Godox for replacement, and though I had to go through the tiny reseller who seemed to operate out of a shack in Pennsylvania somewhere, I got my replacement for free. I test my speed lights under harsh lighting conditions, and the exposure calculator is reliable and believable. No need to whip out formulas and a slide rule or calculator. The actual flash varies sometimes (only occasional aberration), so multiple snapshots are recommended. Overall, I'm delighted to be an owner of the Godox ecosystem for my Sony camera investment.

Quality for less money
I'm a pro photography and I needed a hot shoe flash for my Sony A7Riv. This little flash is not very powerful, but I use it outdoors on full power and keep my Sony in Manual mode. I shot an event in bright sunshine at F9, shutter 1/125 and ISO 100. All I needed was something to counter the shadows on people's faces and it worked fine. It is cheaper than the Sony flashes and I think it works better. If you need a lot of power (more than 76 guide number, you better look elsewhere. But for the money, this thing is great.

Perfect for a full-time photographer
I had a few cheaper flashes that I've been using for years (about $40 per). Those got the job done but once I upgraded to the sony A1 camera with electronic shutter I needed an updated flash. Those cheap flashes would only work with a mechanical shutter and not with the electronic one.At first V860II caught my attention but then I noticed the new version came out. I bought this flash because newer is always better, right? LOLAnywho, I already used this flash at 5 photoshoots and couldn't be happier. It is carrying a hefty price tag but in return I am getting a reliable flash offering:1) rechargable battery instead of wasting 4 AA batteries2) working ability with the electronic shutter3) the ability to be a receiving and transmitting flashOverall, professional, reliable and versatile flash for someone who takes photography more than a hobby.

Broke during the warranty period
The media could not be loaded. The rotating selection dial has come loose after only a few months of use. It no longer works properly, making it difficult to change settings on the flash. I have contacted the seller and will update my review if they honor the 12-month warranty.

Works great on my R7 and R5
Very high quality and a removable battery and all of the features that I was looking for in a speedlight.

Many upgrades from the previous version!!! Can't go wrong with this speedlight!!!
As a freelance photographer, I wear many hats that usually test my equipment to the max. This Godox V860III has met my expectations.During evening parties, the front-facing modeling light helped a ton. Able to dial the intensity of the modeling lamp aid throughout the night. I used to feel uncomfortable with my V860II on the hotshoe but not anymore. This quick release lock gives me the reassurance that it's locked onto the camera safely when shooting.This speedlight also works well with my other Godox flashes. With the 2.4Ghz wireless tech, I can still trigger them all without lag. This speedlight is capable of multiple tasks. Switching modes on the fly like Manual, TTL and multi-flash makes it so versatile.This battery lasts longer than the previous one for sure. I can definitely recall shooting half to quarter power for 600-750 shots.This flash doesn't leave the camera now. It was well worth the purchase!!!
