Godox AD-S3 Beauty Dish Reflector with Honeycomb Cover for AD200Pro II AD200Pro AD200 Pocket Flash AD180 AD360 AD360II Flash Speedlite

The size of the beauty dish is a perfect companion for someone who is solo with taking pictures. It fits my ad200 perfectly And gives me just enough diffuse light to still allow me to edit and it not be harsh. The added weight versus having a soft box is great for days. If there's a breeze. It will likely not fall like a umbrella or softbox.I added the beauty dish to my setup and I have been pleasantly surprised and it is great value for money. Build quality is nice and it is easy to set up.

Decided to try the Godox AD-S3, 12" Beauty Dish with my Flashpoint eVolv 200 pocket flash on a whim to see if it would be a practical modifier to lighten up my travel kit for location shoots rather than packing a pair of 600ws monolights and Bowens mount octaboxes. Because this beauty dish mounts directly to the Godox AD 200 (Flashpoint eVOLV 200), the complete set up (including the AD 200 or Wistro 360) can be mounted directly on a light stand, or a mono pole without the need for the S Type bracket (Speedlight clamp with built in Bowens adapter). This definitely lightens up the load over using the S type bracket with a Bowens modifier; which is extremely convenient to my assistant, normally supporting the weight of a 600ws monolight with a 36" Octabox on the end of a mono pole. Catch lights produced in the eyes are nice and the light is sharp and produces specular highlights. If a softer light is desired, the kit comes with a diffuser sock that fits over the beauty dish. Using the grid appears to reduce the light to about a 30 degree cone allowing exact and precise direction of the light. The beauty dish is small at only 12" in diameter, but nicely fills a niche when you can get by without an 18" to 22" beauty dish. I've used it on new born shoots, pet sessions and children. I have yet to test it outdoors at at an event shoot, but am looking forward to! If you own the Godox AD 200/Flashpoint eVOLV 200 or the Godox Wistro 360, the Godox AD-S3 and the Godox AD-S7 mini octabox are must have modifiers.

I like this beauty dish. I only had one issue with it, and that was packaging. Let me explain, when i got it delivered there was literally no other protection other than the original product box itself. When i opened the box the rear mount was bent out of shape, again because of the poorly packaging. With that being said, I do love me a beauty dish thought. This one is made from aluminum which is pretty light, it comes with a grid and front deffuser as well as gloves to clean the inside of the dish or replace the bulb of you flash. Great buy!

It did what I needed it to do for this shoot. Works great with my AD200.

I liked the design, but the dish was too small for my liking. Worse than that, though, was the odd mounting bracket on the back. Everything I have has a Bowens mount on it. This dish just has some smaller tube with notches in it.As far as I could tell, none of my flash units or strobes would even fit past the mounting tube. I'm assuming it's designed for some type of light bulb that screws into a simple lamp socket.Didn't help me out in any way, so I couldn't test it as a light modifier.

Are use this beauty dish as soon as I got it and honestly it did not disappoint. I took some more wonderful pictures with it after making a couple of adjustments on the camera. The pictures were absolutely dynamite. The only thing you have to be careful of is make sure not to be dropping it or have anything heavy around it because you can bend a little easy.

I have several umbrellas and softboxes but have never owned a beauty dish. I was reluctant to buythis model because I thought it was too small and that the light would be too harsh. I was pleasently suprised.This is a very handy modifier to have and the light's not as hard as I suspected. It's so much easier to slap this on your flash and go, without the hassle of setting up softboxes. Especially when you're in a hurry. If you have an ad-200 this is a must have.

Superbly designed for the new Godox flashes. If you want to add a smallish beauty dish to your kit but not break the bank, this is it!!!This isn't a 24" beauty dish!! Don't expect it to be. But it doesn't cost $200 either!!Small size makes it much better for location work. Design (size, depth, shape) work beautifully.This thing is a STEAL for the price!!! Might as well get two!!
