Does the Godox V860 III-S support Sony TTL and high-speed sync?
Yes. The S version supports Sony TTL metering and high-speed sync at shutter speeds up to 1/8000 second on compatible Sony cameras, including Alpha bodies such as the a7 III.
Can the V860 III-S be fired off-camera without an extra receiver?
Yes. It has a built-in receiver for the Godox 2.4 GHz X radio system, so transmitters such as the Godox XPro-S or X2T-S can control it remotely.
What battery does the Godox V860 III-S use?
It uses Godox's rechargeable VB26-series lithium-ion battery rather than AA cells. Godox rates the flash for roughly 480 full-power flashes and a recycle time of about 1.5 seconds under ideal conditions.
How does the V860 III-S differ from the round-head Godox V1-S?
The V860 III-S uses a conventional rectangular zoom head, while the V1-S has a round magnetic head designed for Godox's AK-R1 modifiers. Both support Sony TTL and the Godox X radio system, so the choice largely depends on head shape and modifier preference.
