Offering full support for Sony ADI / P-TTL and a built-in 2.4 GHz radio system, the Godox TT685S II Flash makes it easy to create both simple and elaborate lighting setups. A powerful and effective lighting tool, this flash features a powerful guide number of 197′ at ISO 100 with a zoom range of 20-200mm. The TT685S II operates as a full wireless master or slave unit with TTL functionality, and for maximum versatility this updated unit tilts from -7 to 120 and rotates 330, giving you more flexible flash angles and a more efficient lighting setup process. Also featured is a new and unique TCM (TTL Converted to Manual) function, which allows for instant conversion from TTL to manual mode. This function helps you lock the proper exposure value and is useful for quickly determining a good starting point for setting external flash units in manual mode. For ease of use, an easy-to-read rear LCD panel illuminates your flash settings, and the flash includes a 2.5mm sync port for basic wired connectivity.

An integrated 2.4 GHz X radio system is incorporated into the TT685S for wireless triggering. Able to be set up as a master or slave, this flash will help you create a versatile lighting setup with a range of 328′ and support for 32 channels and four groups. Functions as a transmitter unit for the V1, AD200Pro, and AD300Pro flash systems. Also functions as a receiver unit for X1, X2, XPro, and V1 transmitter units. Being compatible with the Sony ADI / P-TTL system, users will enjoy numerous automated flash settings and the ability to use functions such as high-speed sync up to 1/8000 seconds. With a guide number of 197′ at ISO 100 the TT685S will easily illuminate most subjects. It also features a zoom head with a range of 20-200mm. Manual power control from 1/1 to 1/128 in 1/3 EV steps. The flash head can be tilted from -7 to 120 and rotated a total of 330 for controlling bounce and where the light falls on the scene. Unique TCM (TTL Converted to Manual) function allows for instant conversion from TTL to manual mode. This function helps you lock the proper exposure value and is useful for quickly determining a good starting point for setting external flash units in manual mode. Optical master/slave transmission is available for working with other standard flashes. A 2.5mm sync port is available for setting up a wired connection to a camera or trigger. Quick-release lock ensures a smooth and fast setup and so you can capture your next shot in critical moments. This flash runs on four alkaline or NiMH AA batteries which help deliver about 330 full-power flashes and recycle times of 0.1-2.6 seconds.

Best replacement

By Gary Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2022-04-14

I have always used the name brand flashes. They are great but at less than half the price, Godox products are almost the equivalent. Great job!

well priced

well priced compared to sony product. delivered quickly

For the money, hard to beat.

By Todd Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2022-01-15

So far it’s working like a champ. I was actually surprised how good the build quality is for this. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a take. But it doesn’t feel cheap at all. I bought this for a hair light, and its pretty much perfect for that. Its definitely not as powerful as my other flashes, like the AD100, but I’m sure you could make it work as your only flash. Just not in really large rooms.

Really nice on camera flash

By Ridley Rated 5 out of 5 Date: 2021-12-21

This is the newest TT685 model. I waited for it to be available so that it could be paired with the more advanced Godox xProS. I am a novice using flash, so I’ve only used it on camera in TTL mode for live shots since receiving it two weeks ago. The menu system is not very complex and operation of the unit has been flawless.

Godox TT685N II Flash

By Theodore Rated 1 out of 5 Date: 2021-12-21

Doesn’t seem to work correctly. Am not able to use the flash in remote.

Works great with the Nikon d850

By Michael Rated 4 out of 5 Date: 2022-04-06

I am a long time user of Nikon Speedlights (SB800/910). I am floored by the high quality of the TT685 for its cost. Guide number is about the same as my SB910. Thus far I haven’t found a missing feature. It works perfectly in off-camera TTL mode with my d850 and the Godox XProN trigger. I will likely sell my Nikon speedlights so I can buy one or two more TT685. I’d give it 5 stars but I don’t know how long it will hold up vs my Nikon Speedlights.

So, great flash but fragile.

The flash has more control and power for anyone. It’s big but lightweight enough not to care. The problem is when aiming it forward, it’s still and prefers to break than to pivot at it’s hinge. The good news is that the fragile part is connected only with a ribbon cable and 4 screws, and a new hotshoe assembly is only $20 on here.
