Certified Importer & Seller Of Godox In South Africa
Product Description
The Godox AD800Pro is an 800Ws all-in-one battery strobe for professional photographers who need enough power to overpower harsh daylight, in a portable design for the studio or location.
It produces a strong, consistent burst of light that cuts through bright sun, while a tactile control dial and bright colour display make on-the-fly adjustments quick and precise, even in fast-paced environments.
Ideal for: professional, studio, and commercial photographers, plus outdoor and location shooters who need high output without mains power.
Shooting outdoors often means battling harsh sunlight that flattens contrast and limits creative control, while studio work needs consistent, repeatable output without being tied to power cables. The AD800Pro addresses both with 800Ws of output in a portable, battery-powered design, so you can shape light confidently on location or in a controlled setup. Fast recycling and a dedicated Freeze Mode capture fleeting moments, from movement in fashion to splashes in product photography, while holding consistent exposure across frames.

Choosing the right Godox location strobe depends on your power requirements, mobility, and shooting environment:
- AD800Pro vs AD600Pro II: The AD800Pro delivers 33% more flash power (800Ws vs 600Ws), giving you an extra boost of output to overpower sunlight when using large softboxes or shooting at greater distances. It offers shorter flash durations in Freeze Mode (up to 1/35,710s vs 1/20,400s) while retaining the same colour TFT screen and colour-coded group interface.
- AD800Pro vs AD1200Pro: The AD800Pro is a self-contained, all-in-one monolight housing the battery directly on the head, making it faster to set up on light stands than the heavy pack-and-head AD1200Pro system.
- Battery Performance: Delivers up to 300 full-power 800Ws flashes per charge from its 28.8V / 2900mAh lithium battery pack, with a full recharge time of approximately 2 hours.
The AD800Pro includes high-performance modes to lock in precise colour and freeze rapid motion:
- Action-Freezing Durations: In Freeze Mode, flash durations reach down to 1/35,710s (t0.1), cleanly freezing water splashes, powder explosions, airborne dancers, and high-speed sports.
- High-Speed Sync (HSS): Syncs at shutter speeds up to 1/8000s, letting you shoot wide open at fast lens apertures (f/1.4 or f/2.8) under intense outdoor light.
- Stable Color Temperature Mode: Maintains colour temperature consistency within ±100K across the entire 10-stop output range, ensuring accurate colour rendering across continuous burst shots
