Aunt Zhang’s relatives and friends, long time no see, the landlord wants to die you!
In fact, this single building owner had long wanted to write, but when he thought of a code word, he felt that his heart was too tired. He could only use Beijing to alleviate his illness.
Time flies, time flies, Dafa family launched a full-scale micro single seems to be yesterday's thing, now with the launch of the Hasselblad X1D, micro-single has suddenly evolved to the era of medium format. The boring (erroneous) classic program "Kangxi came" that accompanied us for 12 years at the beginning of the year was closed; Kobe was retired two months ago; and Duncan was retired a few days ago.
Even Altman, who is a small monster, is already 75 years old! Xiaozhi is still Xiaozhi, Bikaqi or Bikachu, and you and I have already changed from the little rogue (mis)children of that year to today's old bastard (mistaken) adult.
In summary, the Shenniu V860II has started more than one month, if you drag on again, not when the sun will be able to complete the single issue, but the time of the urine of the pig killer, I am afraid V860III just around the corner!
Lazy cancer, how to dispose of treatment, only to be hot in the sun, ah, Luo Luo Ben!
Closer to home, let's talk about the reasons for starting the Shenzhou cattle V860II lithium motor top flash: because the V860II supports TTL, built-in 2.4G Shenniu X wireless system, the use of lithium power supply, full output and return as long as 1.5 seconds and so on...
nonsense! Of course, it's because you can't afford the original lamp! A 600EX enough to buy 4 ç› V860II ah, MOM!
Lens does not buy the original factory to buy deputy factory, flashing lights do not buy the original factory to buy deputy factory, shed flash does not buy Bao Fu map, Brown buy Shenniu, Kimbe, are the same reason: can not afford! Packing nicely called: the pursuit of cost-effective!
Of course, objectively speaking, although there are some deficiencies like this one, V860II is still a sincerity of domestic flashing lights.
One, out of the box Packing box
There is nothing special about the box. Each product is on the back of the box. The back and side are respectively listed with the function and selling point of the flashing lamp.
The packaging box adopts a method of opening the cover and opening it. Compared with the top cover and the bottom cover, this opening method is much more convenient, at least to the landlord who has short fingers and no nails.
2. Accessories and Premiums
One standard flash protection package, workmanship is acceptable, but the material is not thick enough, the impact resistance is doubtful
Standard 11.1V 2000mAh 22Wh lithium battery. It has to be said that lithium is a major selling point of the V860II. All-optical output will be returned for 1.5 seconds. The total number of flashes of light output of 650 will depend on this. Of course, another benefit is that it saves money for an extra wife.
With the standard charger, the battery status is indicated by the percentage and the number of battery cells in the front image. It takes only 2.5 hours to fully charge the V818 battery.
Anti-slip rubber strips on the back of the charger are very intimate and user-friendly design
Battery and charger fit
The standard X-type flash lamp base is visually slightly top-heavy, but it is safe to use.
Standard soap box soft cover a standard, as for the small soft mask and flash color film in the end is a manufacturer gift, or shop gifts, I will not know! Anyway, the "Included Items" column on the manual and box is without these two things.
At this point, in addition to the built-in eye light plate of the flash head, the buyer initially had three basic soft light tools such as a soap box diffuser and a small diffuser, plus a multi-colored flash color chip as a gift. For daily and start-up use, the basics have already gotten alive. Even if you need to add more beaming equipment afterwards, you will also save a basic cost! The “black heart†of the original factory and the conscience of the deputy factory are reflected here and there.
3.V860II appearance display
Flash body front. The lower red transparent area has a built-in light sensor, auxiliary focus lamp (bottom circle device), and slave unit indicator (the lamp flashes intermittently when the flash is in a slave state)
The back of the flash unit. The upper part is the LCD screen, and the lower part is the control panel area. Although the buttons look slightly more, the buttons and the upper screen have roughly corresponding positions in their positions, so the operation is not very complicated.
The right side of the flash body is where the lithium battery compartment is located
There is a sync jack under the rubber cover on the left side of the flash body (X1R or Proweave flash can be used after the flash sync cable is connected), wireless control socket (does not know what is dry) and USB port (flash firmware upgrade)
Flash light head. The lamp head can achieve 20mm-200mm zoom. As for the actual performance of the lamp head at various focal lengths, there will be more detailed comparisons later.
Built-in wide-angle diffuser, the focal length of the lamp is changed from 20mm to 14mm after pulling out. The advantage is that the light coverage is more extensive and the light quality is more even. The disadvantage is that the lamp head focal length can no longer be adjusted and the flash output will decrease by about one notch due to a lot of obstructions.
Built-in eye light board. The best thing is to create a look of light while filling the room with the ceiling.
1. Lamp head movable angle
The lamp head can do a total of 360 degree rotation in the horizontal direction, and can be flipped up and down in the vertical direction from -7 degrees to 90 degrees. Basically, it is the same with the moving angle of the lamp of the mainstream dome flash, of course, and the Dafa F60M. This kind of one-degree-of-freedom metamorphosis flashing lamp is incomparable
2. Flash coverage
Mentioned earlier, the V860II lamp head can achieve 20mm-200mm zoom range, or flash coverage, the actual shooting effect of each focal length can refer to the following figure. The uniformity of the light quality at the telephoto end is not ideal. If these naked lights are used directly, it is estimated that the photo quality will be more or less unfavorable. If a soft light device is installed, it has little effect
Pull out the built-in wide-angle diffuser, flash coverage can be expanded from 20mm to 14mm, but in the same file output, the flash will be less than a light exposure
3.GN value
The skillful “virtualization†of GN values ​​is by no means a patent of the deputy factory, and even the original flashing lights are the same. Specifically, the lamp head is zoomed to make the flash range more concentrated, so that the GN value is naturally much larger than at the wide-angle end.
V860II nominal GN value as high as 60 (1/1 output, ISO100, 200mm focal length, distance is unknown), of course, this is only an index of laughter, as to how much is actually, the younger brother I also conducted the actual measurement.
However, in view of the imprecision of the test environment and test methods, the meter readings are for reference only. You can use the GN value=distance*aperture formula to convert the specific GN values. In the end, the power of interpretation is still owned by Vendors.
1/1 output, ISO100, 35mm focal length, 1 meter distance
1/1 output, ISO100, 200mm focal length, 1 meter distance
4. Compatibility and expandability of accessories
With the same S-bracket produced by Shenniu, the beaming and soft light styling accessories used on the shed can be directly transplanted to the small roof flash, saving the expense of repeated investment. However, the premise is that the shed flash you use is a Pauline bayonet. If you are a user of Profoto, Brown, and Elder, all of this is when I did not say
After the combination of the flash and the S-bracket, it is equivalent to one more Bao Rong bayonet, so connecting the standard photo, light beam, softbox and other accessories from the bayonet socket is almost no difficulty.
In addition, since the V860II has Shenniu 2.4G wireless X system built-in, it can easily use the X1 flash device for wireless flash. This means that an X1 flasher can be wirelessly controlled and strobed, such as the V860II, AD360II, and AD600, which all have a built-in Shenniu 2.4G wireless X system flash, whether it is a roof flash, an external light or a shed flash. This undoubtedly greatly reduces the difficulty of building a flash system
5. Flash mode and menu display
The V860II's menu may seem complicated. It makes people feel a little confused when they first get started. In fact, the logic of the menu is very clear. In simple terms, the V860II has three major modes:
Single lamp overhead flash mode (including: E-TTL, M, MULTI)
Wireless optical transmission mode (Including: MASTER as the top flash as the remote control and the flash control to control the off-camera flash, SLAVE as the off-camera flashing top control remote control)
Wireless (2.4G) transmission mode (including: MASTER, ibid; SLAVE, ibid, can also be remotely controlled by X1 flash)
Perhaps personal wisdom and research on flashers are not thorough enough. The younger brother encountered two problems in the specific use of the V860II:
1. The V860II uses the X1 flasher for control and flashing in the radio transmission mode. It is not possible to use the high-speed sync and the second curtain flash (because there is no SYNC button for the above two functions in the menu).
2. Whether it is in wireless optical transmission mode or radio mode, using a V860II as a trigger for control and flashing, off-camera flash cannot use the second curtain flash (also because the menu does not call out the above Function SYNC button)
If you look at an officer who can solve the above two problems, he also hopes to help the younger brother, and the younger brother here thanked him first.
V860II advantages:
1. Using lithium, fast return, long life
2. Built-in wireless X system, with master and slave functions, available X1 flash
3. Supports 1/8000 second high speed synchronization
4. The price is much cheaper than the original lamp, cost-effective
Deficiency of V860II:
1. After the lamp is zoomed to the telephoto end, the flash light quality is not uniform enough
2.GN value does not seem to reach the nominal value
3. The specification was not developed well, resulting in some operations without evidence.
Fourth, take the girl proofs appreciationUnfortunately, shortly after the V860II started, I immediately suffered a serious illness and is still recovering. Therefore, apart from using this product to help a sister with a private photo shoot, there are no more opportunities for use.
With V860II in the room behind the curtain, directly with the bare light against the ceiling with a low power to make a jump flash, make up for the lack of indoor light, reduce the contrast of light outside the window and indoor (single light off the machine)
After installing the ring diffuser on the front of the V860II, it flashes directly from the front to create an extremely soft shadow and a circular eye pattern (single lamp overhead flash)
(According to the scale, the younger brother had to shamelessly use the LOGO of the mother to code, but also hope that Xiao Bian and you see the officer forgive me!)
