GODOX SPEED LIGHT WITH TT 685

Key Features and Characteristics:

1. Manual-Only Operation:

   • The TT560 is a fully manual flash. This means there's no TTL (Through-The-Lens) automatic exposure metering. You manually set the power output (typically from 1/1 to 1/128 power) and zoom head position.

   • While this requires more user input, it gives photographers complete control over their lighting and can be very consistent once settings are dialed in. It's often preferred for studio work or situations where repeatable lighting is needed.

2. Built-in Optical Slave Modes (S1/S2):

   • This is a standout feature for its price point. The TT560 includes two optical slave modes:

     • S1 Mode: The flash will fire in response to the first flash it detects from another speedlight (e.g., your camera's pop-up flash or another speedlight).

     • S2 Mode: This "pre-flash cancel" mode ignores a camera's pre-flash (used for TTL metering or red-eye reduction) and fires only on the second, main flash. This allows it to work wirelessly with many cameras' built-in flashes or other TTL speedlights.

   • These slave modes allow for easy off-camera triggering without needing additional radio triggers (though radio triggers are still often preferred for reliability and range).

3. Powerful Guide Number:

   • The TT560 typically boasts a respectable guide number, indicating its maximum light output. This power is sufficient for illuminating subjects in various scenarios, from portraits to small group shots. (Exact GN varies slightly by region/measurement, but it's generally considered powerful for its class).

4. Flexible Head Movement:

   • Swivel (Horizontal) & Tilt (Vertical): The flash head can tilt upwards (e.g., 0 to 90 degrees) and swivel horizontally (e.g., 0 to 270 degrees). This allows you to bounce the flash off ceilings and walls, creating softer, more flattering light than direct flash.

5. Manual Zoom Head:

   • The flash head has a manual zoom function, allowing you to narrow or widen the beam of light to match your lens's focal length (e.g., 28mm, 35mm, 50mm, 70mm, 85mm). This helps to concentrate light where needed and can increase effective flash power.
