▸ Godox V1 Flash

The Godox V1 has been the most reliable flash in my kit—I’ve been rough with it and it just keeps going. I like the rounded head, and for weddings I treat two flashes as a non-negotiable because if one dies, you still need to finish the reception properly.

Pros

+Reliable over long-term, heavy wedding use
+Rounded head and strong output for reception lighting
+Essential redundancy when paired with a second flash

Cons

-Still needs good technique (bounce, diffusion) to look natural
-Requires spare batteries and basic flash workflow
