Godox TT685 Speedlite Flash for Nikon - TTL HSS External Camera Flash - 03445

The Godox TT685 for Nikon is a powerful and versatile external Speedlite flash, designed for photographers who want full control and creative flexibility. With support for TTL (i-TTL) automatic metering and full manual control, this flash is perfect for portrait, event, wedding, and studio photography.

Featuring a high guide number of 60 (ISO 100, 200mm), the TT685 delivers strong and consistent lighting performance. The zoom head (20–200mm) can be adjusted automatically or manually, adapting perfectly to your lens focal length.

The flash head is fully tiltable and rotatable, allowing for bounce flash techniques and creative lighting angles. It also includes a wide-angle diffuser and built-in reflector, giving you more lighting control for softer or more direct light.

With High-Speed Sync (up to 1/8000s) and second curtain sync, the TT685 enables professional-level shooting even in challenging lighting conditions. The built-in 2.4GHz wireless system allows the flash to work as both master and slave, making it ideal for multi-flash setups.

A clear backlit LCD display, fast recycle time (0.1–2.6s), and multiple connection options make this flash a reliable and user-friendly choice.

1. Compatible Cameras (Nikon)

The "N" in TT685N stands for Nikon. It supports i-TTL and High-Speed Sync (HSS) on almost all Nikon bodies with a standard hot shoe.

• DSLRs: D850, D810, D780, D750, D610, D500, D7500, D7200, D5600, D3500, etc.

• Mirrorless (Z-Series): Nikon Z9, Z8, Z7 II, Z6 II, Z5, Z50, Zfc, and Z30.

  • Note: Ensure your flash firmware is updated to at least v3.3 for the best performance with newer Z-series cameras.

2. Wireless Triggers (For Off-Camera Use)

If you want to take the flash off the camera to get better lighting, you'll need a transmitter. These allow you to control the flash's power and settings remotely.

• Godox X3 (Xnano): The newest, tiny touchscreen trigger.

• Godox XPro II / XPro: Great for seeing all your groups at once on a large screen.

• Godox X2T: Includes a "pass-through" hot shoe on top if you want to mount another flash or accessory on the trigger itself.

3. Light Modifiers & Brackets

Since the TT685 has a rectangular "speedlight" head, you usually need a bracket to attach professional softboxes.

• The Godox S2 Bracket: This is the most essential accessory. It holds your TT685 and gives it a Bowens Mount, allowing you to use almost any professional-grade softbox, beauty dish, or snoot.

• MagMod: A popular third-party company. Their MagGrip system uses magnets to quickly attach grids, gels, and "MagSphere" diffusers to the TT685.

• Westcott: Their Rapid Box series often comes with speedlight inserts that fit the TT685 perfectly.

4. Other Compatible Godox Lights

Your TT685N can act as a Master (triggering other lights) or a Slave (being triggered by others). It can work in sync with:

• Studio Strobes: Godox AD200 Pro, AD400 Pro, AD600 Pro, and the MS/SK series.

• Other Speedlights: V1 (round head), V860 III, or the cheaper TT600 (manual only).

5. Power & Battery Options

The TT685 uses 4x AA batteries, but it has a high-voltage port for external packs.

• Eneloop (Panasonic): Widely considered the "gold standard" rechargeable AA batteries for flashes due to fast recycle times.

• Godox PB960: An external lithium power pack that plugs into the side of the TT685 to give you thousands of flashes and near-instant recycle times.
