AD1200 Pro
The Godox AD1200 Pro has a massive 1200 Ws maximum output—perfect for heavily stopped-down shooting or HSS. Its 36 V 5200 mAh battery recycles full power in < 2 s and delivers 400+ full-power shots on one charge (about ~1 s to recycle at 600 Ws and 800+ shots at that power).
At this power level, a pack-and-head design is the best choice. The lightweight head mounts to your stand while the heavier pack—housing the capacitors, fans, and heatsink—stays on the ground. This keeps weight off your stands and makes the pack easy to access for battery checks, group/channel changes, and more.
When you buy your Godox AD1200 Pro from us, you get our industry-leading support. Strobepro is the largest distributor of Godox products in Canada. Enjoy peace of mind with our helpful staff, 2-year warranty, and Calgary-based service centre.
The 40 W COB LED modelling light is bright enough to replace traditional tungsten modelling lamps. If you shoot both stills and video, it can double as a supplementary video light—especially with the wide range of Bowens-mount modifiers available.
The Godox AD1200 Pro supports TTL and HSS on all major systems with the correct controller mounted on your camera (Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, Sony, Olympus/OM-System/Panasonic, and Pentax).
Despite its huge maximum output, the AD1200 Pro dials down 9 stops to 1/256 for low-power pops, making it usable in virtually any scenario.
The Godox AD1200 Pro uses the Bowens mount and fits all Strobepro and Bowens modifiers, including Strobepro Rapid Snap softboxes.
