Godox updates its compact TT350 Thinklite flash

Godox has introduced the TT350II Thinklite TTL, the next generation of its compact on-camera TT350 flash, released almost ten years ago. The updated model features a more compact body, a hybrid-design hot shoe, a color HD display, a built-in LED modeling lamp and support for Godox’s 2.4 GHz Wireless X system.

The new hot shoe uses a precision multi-contact layout, allowing a single flash version to work with cameras from several brands. The TT350II is designed for Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm and OM System/Panasonic cameras. A separate TT350II S version is available for Sony cameras, so the shoe is not universal across all systems.

The color screen displays key settings and functions in clear, color-coded text. Four physical buttons and a control dial sit below it. The previous TT350 had only a monochrome display, similar to those found on the top panels of older DSLR cameras.

The flash head tilts up by 120° and down by 7°, and swivels from 0° to 270°. According to the manufacturer, the updated design provides more even light distribution. A separately sold magnetic adapter ring lets you attach various accessories to the flash, including a snoot, honeycomb grid, diffuser, reflector and colored gel filters.

The LED lamp on the front panel helps with focusing in low light. It also lets you preview the lighting before shooting.

The built-in 2.4 GHz Godox Wireless X module allows the TT350II to work as both a transmitter and a receiver. The flash can be linked to other devices in the Godox ecosystem, including flashes and studio monolights. The stated wireless transmission range is nearly 100 meters, or 328 feet. A USB-C port is provided for installing future firmware updates.

The TT350II supports TTL automatic mode, manual power adjustment, HSS high-speed sync, first- and second-curtain sync, and stroboscopic mode.

The flash covers focal lengths from 24–105 mm. Its guide number is about 36 m at ISO 100, or 118 feet. The flash runs on two AA batteries. With 2500 mAh NiMH batteries, it can deliver approximately 210 flashes; recycling at full power takes from 2.5 seconds. Flash duration ranges from 1/600 to 1/25,000 second.
