QUOTE(Loseeker @ Feb 12 2019, 10:43 PM) Hi guys, as title, I wanna know if anyone of you have experience using the AD200 in a double diffused softbox. My question is, is it enough to overpower the sun in our malaysian bright hot sunny afternoon around 3.30pm to 5pm for on location shoot? Or am I better off with the Godox AD600BM instead? I know AD600 is a much powerful unit, but they are both price very similar with AD600BM (Manual, not TTL version) only RM250 more than the Ad200 on shopee. I'm still debating which one to get as I really drawn by the AD200 portability and the power of the AD600 in overpowering the sun. Any real life experiences feedback is greatly appreciated. I'm using profoto 600watt when harsh sunlight sometimes still not enough power. But mostly i get the nice background and the subject a bit dark, I will come back pp a bit. For my opinion if you go for higher power you can always lower the power if the light is too strong. But AD200 when you dont have enough light power, you can't do anything on the location shooting oledi

AD600 have High Speed Sync, which you can shoot against a very bright sunny condition at shutter speed above 250. AD200, should have a similar feature. Can always find out from Youtube review and local sellers about it.
