Pro Performance
Building on its predecessor, the AD300Pro II All-in-One Outdoor Flash from Godox arrives as the improved, second version of the popular AD300Pro—bringing several professional features and a more sleek design. Godox continues to expand its Witstro series by introducing the 300Ws AD300Pro II with 16 color groups, a convenient color screen, and a 12W bi-color LED modeling light. Another benefit is one-tap sync functionality with the brand’s separately available X3 trigger for easy synchronization. The AD300Pro II also brings a wider 1/512 to 1/1 power output in 0.1 increments, offering full TTL support to work with the auto flash systems of Canon, Nikon, FUJIFILM, OM SYSTEM, Panasonic, Sony, Leica, and Pentax cameras. The flash head has a recycle time of 0.1-1.5 sec, a handy action-stopping freeze mode, and finally, a lightweight 2.6 lb body that makes it a great asset for outdoor creators. Among its various acessories, the flash body comes with a reflector, battery, charging cable, and a carry bag.

Better Performance
The AD300Pro II’s detachable battery will give you up to 350 full-power flashes with recycle times from 0.01 to 1.5 sec, a 10-stop power range, and high-speed sync times as short as 1/8000 sec. In addition, the AD300Pro II introduces a convenient freeze mode with flash durations from 1/2310 to 1/24,390 sec for stopping action. Outside of the freeze mode, the AD300Pro II has normal flash durations from 1/220 to 1/14,920 sec.

Improved Design
Godox has improved the physical body of this flash, bringing a more elegant and modern design that enables intuitive local operation. Another unique AD300Pro II setting is its Color-Stable mode which maintains a consistent color temperature throughout the entire power range. At 5800K (+/-200K), the AD300Pro II is ideal for on-location portraits, editorial shoots, and other commercial work.

Effortless for Your Creative Shots
Designed to simplify use when combined with the separately available X3 trigger, the AD300Pro II enables instant synchronization with the X3 to let you focus on your visual creation. This wireless sync function will optimize your photo workflow, cutting down the time you normally spend managing complicated channels and ID settings. Simply press the wireless sync option on both your X3 and the AD300Pro II to achieve quick synchronization.

16 Groups with Color Identification
The AD300Pro II is part of Godox’s 2.4 GHz wireless X system with a range of 328′, featuring 16 groups, 32 channels, and 99 IDs that facilitate the use of multiple lights. Use the optional X3 or the XPro series, X2T, and X1 triggers to wirelessly control the flash head. The brand adds 16 color group capability so different colors will locally display on the flash head for easy group identification even from a distance.

Intuitive Settings
In addition to the group color capability right at the head of the flash, the AD300Pro II body also has a color screen and a smooth metal control dial. Common functionalities of the flash are easy to manage thanks to an intuitive menu and local buttons. Besides that, it was clever of Godox to employ an upgraded bi-color LED modeling light that is now variable from a wider 2800 to 6000K range with adjustable brightness from 10 to 100%. The lamp has high CRI and TLCI ratings of 97 and 98, respectively. Use the LED modeling light for your previews or on-set illumination.

Widely Compatible
The AD300Pro II has a proprietary Godox mount, but enables Bowens mount with the use of optional adapters. Meaning wide compatibility with optional light shapers from the Godox ecosystem and other types of modifiers, such as a snoot, a barndoor kit, a long focus reflector, a flash projector, and various softboxes. The AD300Pro II works with the separately available S3 or AD-AB adapters to expand your options with Bowens, Broncolor, Profoto, and Elinchrom mounts. This enables compatibility with optional beauty dishes, reflectors, a flash projection attachment, and quick release umbrella softboxes in different sizes and shapes.

New Vintage Thypoch Eureka 28mm f/2.8 ASPH.


Thypoch Eureka 28mm f/2.8 ASPH: B&H Photo

Classic and Compact: Thypoch Eureka 28mm f/2.8 ASPH. Pre-order Available Now
Thypoch today announced the pre-order of the Eureka 28mm f/2.8 ASPH, the latest addition to its vintage line of compact, high-performance pancake lenses. Following the success of the series’ inaugural 50mm lens, the new 28mm model maintains the signature blend of classic aesthetic appeal and cutting-edge optical engineering, offering photographers a wider option.  

Inspired by the iconic British legend – the Dallmeyer 35mm f/3.5 Anastigmat mounted on the Ilford Advocate camera, the Eureka 28mm f/2.8 ASPH embodies a heritage design re-imagined for today. The creation of this lens was born from the Thypoch team’s passion for shooting reversal film during long-distance travels, using compact 28mm lenses. Dissatisfied with the market’s lack of options that were truly small, elegant, and exhibited minimal vignetting—a critical flaw for reversal film, where dark corners significantly impact viewing pleasure, unlike digitally adjustable files—they decided to develop their own.

Thypoch’s optical designers iterated through three distinct versions before arriving at the optimal result seen today, achieving outstanding resolutionminimal vignetting, and low distortion—all within an exceptionally compact form to meet the demands of fine reversal film. To match this optical excellence, countless hours were dedicated to refining the fine white paint finish and perfecting the surface texture of the black version. Although the black model does not use lacquer, the team employed a special method to achieve a tactile quality as pleasing as traditional black lacquer, making the Eureka 28mm a precision instrument for the artist, and a work of art in itself.

Besides the M mount version, Thypoch specially releases an X mount version and an M-X adapter to maintain the aesthetic consistency between the camera body and the lens based on the refined, vintage appearance of Eureka and the design of Fujifilm cameras. Even when adapted, its compact size remains lightweight and balanced, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate classic aesthetics without compromising modern optical quality.

  • Crafted with a brass body and finished in pearl white infused with delicate gold powder
  • Classic appearance design from the 1950s
  • Ultra-lightweight: around 130 g
  • Compact size: 19.5~21.9 mm height
  • Outstanding sharpness from center to edge
  • Accurate rendering: only 0.462% distortion
  • Multi-layer coating
  • Two colors available
  • 0.4 m minimum focusing distance

Fujifilm Patent Found: Angle-Proof Filters to Minimize Color Shift

Generated Image

Generated Image

Fujifilm filed a patent for a new polarization interference element and filter designed to minimize wavelength shift when light hits the sensor at an oblique angle. This technology appears to be aimed at correcting color shading (color casts) in the corners of the frame, which is particularly useful for wide-angle lenses and high-resolution sensors.

Overview

  • [Publication number] US 2025/0362439
  • [Release date] 2025-11-27
  • [Title of invention] Polarization Interference Element and Filter
  • [Applicant] FUJIFILM Corporation

Problem to be solved “To provide a polarization interference element and a filter that can minimize wavelength shift at maximum transmittance when light is incident at an oblique angle. Conventionally, wide-angle optical systems suffer from color unevenness in the peripheral portion of the image due to the dependence of the spectral transmittance on the incident angle.”

Benefits This technology addresses the “crosstalk” and color shifting often seen when using ultra-wide lenses or adapted glass on mirrorless sensors. By using multiple birefringent layers to correct the optical path at steep angles, this implementation could lead to:

  • Improved Corner Accuracy: Eliminating the color shift (magenta/green casts) often seen in the extreme corners of wide-angle shots.
  • Better Adapted Lens Performance: Helping legacy rangefinder lenses perform better on X-Series and GFX sensors.
  • Cleaner Video: Reducing color gradation shifts during pans, which are difficult to correct in post-production.
