If you are looking for cheap flashes and strobes, you\u2019ve probably come across Godox and Flashpoint. You probably noticed that the products are pretty similar. The question is, are they the same? In this article, we will answer that question for you, and we will help you navigate both product lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flashpoint is a Godox brand made for the US market, which is distributed by Adorama, so they make the same products. The benefit is that if you live in the US, you get a warranty and support via Adorama instead of waiting for support directly from Godox in China.<\/strong>

That would be the simple way of explaining the differences. Now let\u2019s dig into more details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Flashpoint vs Godox: What Are The Exact Differences?<\/h2>\n\n\n

Godox flashes, speedlights and strobes with Canon camera. From top left to right: Canon 5D Mk II, Godox AD200 (Flashpoint eVOLV 200 Pro), V860 (Flashpoint Zoom Li-ion R2 TTL), xPRO Trigger (Flashpoint R2 Pro ), Wistro AD600 (Flashpoint XPLOR 600).<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

As previously mentioned, Flashpoint<\/strong> is a Godox<\/strong> brand intended for the US market<\/strong> and distributed by Adorama<\/strong>. The support and warranty are Adorama\u2019s obligations if you purchase Flashpoint equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, most of the gear between Flashpoint and Godox is the same. They just go under different names. The following table will help you differentiate all the products under the two brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the gear is the same between the two brands, that means it can work interchangeably. So if you have a Flashpoint trigger, you can trigger a Godox flash and vice versa. All of the accessories made for Godox products fit on Flashpoint products and the other way around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Godox and Wistro: What Are The Differences?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wistro<\/strong> is a product line of battery-powered<\/strong> monolights<\/strong> from Godox<\/strong>. So unlike Flashpoint and Godox, which is the same brand just for different markets, Wistro is just a product line. For example, Godox Wistro AD600BM<\/strong> is a Wistro flash made by Godox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Flashpoint Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thus far, you\u2019ve learned that Flashpoint is Godox for the US market and is distributed and supported by Adorama. That means if you live in the US<\/strong> (or near), it is wise to purchase Flashpoint gear instead of Godox. That way, you can have support, warranty, and service from Adorama<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That means if something breaks and you need to return the product for replacement or service, Adorama will be a much faster option than waiting for Godox to service\/replace the unit from China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adorama is known for good customer service, so it is a great choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Godox Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you live in Asia<\/strong>, purchasing Godox<\/strong> products is a better idea. Since Godox is made in China, servicing or replacing the products also goes through China. So if you are geographically near China, you\u2019ll have decent customer service and experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, if you try to get something repaired or replaced by Godox directly outside of Asia, you might end up waiting for months just for shipping. Of course, there are authorized service centers and resellers for Godox in other countries, but their stock and capabilities are limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
