It's quite a charming little review and I like the other feature he highlights... the optional shutter sounds
Just watched that video. Nicely presented. Cheers.

Sometimes I'm serious and sometimes not, but I consider sarcasm an artform. Which is it today?

I wonder how one of these would do instead of a traditional flash .

I have a Mecalight 320 and it works very well with stills, for video clips shot with the MX-1 it is even more useful.
The dimming control makes it even more useful.

There is no pre-flash for the settings as I've shown (Slow-speed sync and trailing curtain). The MX-1 manual confirms this.

There is. It's just very quick.However, there is no pre-flash when using the GODOX flash set to S2 with the camera's flash settings as shown.

Have you watched Blunty's review?
Pretty much sums them up. The only problem I have is that I can't seem to find a suitable AC adapter to save using batteries when I'm near an outlet.

That Godox is cheap n cheerful. I especially like the arm to attach to the tripod mount. Good stuff
