So I just moved over to the X-H2S for my hybrid work and I'm honestly loving the speed but my old Godox setup is acting super weird. I bought the XPro-F trigger but for some reason I'm getting inconsistent firing during high speed bursts which never happened on my old Sony rig. I've got a huge wedding shoot next Saturday in Seattle and I'm lowkey panicking because I need a reliable TTL setup that can keep up with this stacked sensor. Budget is like 600 bucks for a flash and trigger combo that wont let me down. Should I just bite the bullet and go Profoto or is there a better Godox unit that actually handles the H2S frame rates?

To add to the point above: you honestly dont need to drop Profoto money to solve this. I had some weird lag issues with my Fuji setup too until I updated the firmware on my trigger... definitely check that first. If you want a super solid backup, the Godox V860III-F TTL Li-ion Flash is a total workhorse. It uses the same li-ion battery as the V1 but usually costs a bit less, which is nice for the wallet. If Godox is still giving you anxiety before the big day, look at the Westcott FJ80 II M Universal Speedlight. It is very beginner friendly and the touch screen is actually decent compared to the clunky buttons on other units. It fits your 600 budget easily and is super reliable. Also, maybe grab the Godox X2T-F Wireless Flash Trigger as a spare. I find the Bluetooth connectivity on that one way more stable for quick adjustments on the fly. Just keep an eye on your shutter type tho... electronic shutter can be finicky with flash sync during bursts sometimes.

In my experience at weddings, I've found the Godox V1-F Round Head Flash beats the older Godox V860II-F Flash for bursts.
- V1: Quicker recycle
- Godox XPro II-F Wireless Flash Trigger: Rock solid sync
