Questions & Answers

GARY P : Do all 100 Pros have a loud POP when firing? Mine is much louder than my V1's or AD200Pros. I was shooting my dogs with the 100 in a Fastbox and they both jumped up and ran off when it popped! They usually hung around when I was using my other units.Jonathan V : I don't hear the "pop" as much since i don't fire at the higher ranges. (Usually around 1/8 or lower for my photography.)GARY P : Definitely not the beep. I made sure that was off. It seems to work fine but the pop is annoying. I bought it "Open Box" but I am pretty sure it has some kind of warranty from Adorama.Winston W : No. What would you call a 'POP" (is it be beep?). I have never heard a 'POP' sound with mine, so I would send it back.
Miguel M : does it have any firmware updates?GARY P : Most current (2/10/2025) VER.1.2Kris K : I do not know because I have never checked regarding updates.
RALPH D : Will a pocket wizard work on this flash ?MELVINA E : I know Flashpoint and Godox triggers work. I'm not sure if a Pocket Wizard is compatible.

Slow to recharge and weak in HSS mode

After using the Xplor 100 Pro R2 for a while, it seems slow to recharge between shots and really weak in HSS mode. I just compared it to my Godox TT600 in high speed sync, and the TT600 is brighter. I was shooting at 1/1000 shutter speed and 1/2 power. The specs for this flash look good on paper, but after using it for a while, I'm going back to my $75 TT600 for location shoots.

Good small flash

Excellent flash to have. very portable and imo much easier to carry around than a square flash( a coke can shape). Has more power too. It won't over power the sun but definitly packs a punch when needed.

Powerful lights for their small size

Got one, and liked it so much that I got a second one. I've found it to be perfectly fine to use indoors and bounce off a ceiling. It might be more useful as an accent light outdoors in bright conditions. Youtuber MarkusPix has heavily reveiwed this light, and even uses it with various soft modifiers outdoors. You can use extreme light weight stands due to the small size and weight, or you could even creatively mount these somewhere using a magic arm and clamp

This can change your photography way-more than a better lens

As a photographic hobbyist, I'm now learning the great benefits of strobe flash. It was easy to learn how to easily and instantly tell it what to do, using my XPro II S. I was also a shutterbug back in the film-only days. A huge advantage we have now, in the digital world, is that we can experiment boldly because we can see the results of a shot immediately, and make adjustments instantly, using radio, right from the camera itself, with no need to have it physically tethered to the camera. I've made some impressive photos, using this Explor 100 Pro TTL. We may completely eliminate the flat, unnatural 'point-and-shoot snapshot' look by simply holding the flash unit a little-ways from the camera. Also, modern batteries give me many hundreds of shots per charge. I find this large, round, well-diffused light source to not cast objectionably 'hard' shadows, if I'm within even eight feet (2.4 meters) from a subject.

Best lightweight portable strobe. Period.

This is a great little take-anywhere light. I now have an AD-100, AD-200, AD-300 and a Li-on X Pro R2 all from Adorama! I will buy more AD-100s as they are very flexible and light!

Perfect except for the noise they make...POP!

Great light plenty of power ....loud pop on firing, much louder than Alienbees, or TT685 Godox units. A problem for me as I shoot cats. Recommended EXCEPT for shooting when you don't want a loud pop after every shot.

Keeper, can replace several flashes with its power.

As a hobbyist photographer, I hesitated to buy this flash because I already have multiple on camera flashes as well as AD200 flash. However, I decided to try it out and I am not disappointed. It is compact, powerful and battery last and last. I took hundreds of pictures outdoors for friends and the power is way better than on camera flash (860x). It is permanently staying in my camera bag now since it is just as big as a soda can. The lcd is bright enough to see in direct sunlight via middle age man's eyes, unlike the lcd on AD200. Lastly, it works with all my decade old Godox flash triggers for Olympus & Canon.

perfect small off camera flash / strobe

This strobe is the best light in a small, light, convenient setup. It puts out plently of light for its size and even surprises me how well it does on bigger jobs and lighting tasks. It is super easy to use and has worked flawlessly for an in studio 2nd / fill light, and for is a joy to use for outdoor, remote work because of its size and weight and ease of use.

Fantastic, small, pretty powerful, great battery.

Great first off-camera strobe. More powerful than a hotshoe flash, small, great battery life. Not great for large groups in dim areas, but for individuals or a few people it's awesome. Get the S2 bracket for Bowens mount with it.

Better for Weddings than the AD200s.

By Andrew H.

I'm a wedding photographer and I use 4 of these to light receptions. I was previously using 4 AD200s but they take up significantly more space in my bag (and weigh more). Additionally, AD200s can make a 12 foot high lightstand very top-heavy. After nearly having my light stands fall several times in 2021 I switched to these. They are SO lightweight and the Silicone "bumpers" provide amazing protection. Additionally, these AD100s have built in fans whereas the AD200s do not. You c...
