Godox TT685IIN speedlight for Nikon

Godox TT685IIN speedlite for Nikon. The TT685N II operates as a full wireless master or slave unit with TTL functionality, and for maximum versatility this updated unit tilts from -7 to 120° and rotates 330°, giving you more flexible flash angles and a more efficient lighting setup process. Also featured is a new and unique TCM (TTL Converted to Manual) function, which allows for instant conversion from TTL to manual mode. This function helps you lock the proper exposure value and is useful for quickly determining a good starting point for setting external flash units in manual mode. For ease of use, an easy-to-read rear LCD panel illuminates your flash settings, and the flash includes a 2.5mm sync port for basic wired connectivity.

The Godox TT685IIN is a powerful Nikon i-TTL compatible speedlight featuring a Guide Number of 60, High-Speed Sync (HSS), and an integrated 2.4G Wireless X System. The upgraded Mark II version introduces the TCM (TTL-to-Manual) function and a quick-release lock, making it the best professional flash for Nikon DSLR and Mirrorless photographers.

The TT685IIN stands out with its innovative TCM (TTL Converted to Manual) function. This allows you to instantly convert your TTL exposure settings into a manual power value, providing a perfect starting point for consistent lighting across multiple shots. With a powerful Guide Number of 60 (ISO 100) and a wide zoom range of 20mm to 200mm, you can easily illuminate large groups or zoom in for tight, dramatic spotlighting.

Connectivity is at the heart of the Godox ecosystem. The built-in 2.4G Wireless X System allows the TT685IIN to act as either a Master or Slave unit, communicating perfectly with other Godox flashes like the V1, AD200 Pro, or AD600 series. Whether you are using a Nikon Z9, D850, or Z6II, the High-Speed Sync (HSS) up to 1/8000s lets you shoot with wide apertures even in bright midday sun.

Does the Godox TT685IIN work on Nikon Mirrorless (Z-mount) cameras? Yes! The TT685IIN is fully compatible with Nikon Z-series mirrorless cameras (Z5, Z6, Z7, Z8, Z9, Z50, etc.) as well as traditional Nikon DSLRs.

What is the difference between the TT685N and the TT685IIN? The “II” (Mark Two) version adds a much broader tilt angle (-7° to 120°), the TCM instant conversion button, a USB-C update port, and the improved quick-release mounting foot.

Does this flash require a separate trigger to work off-camera? To use it off-camera, you will need a Godox X-series transmitter (like the X2T-N or XProII-N) mounted on your camera’s hot shoe.

Can I use rechargeable AA batteries? Yes, we highly recommend Ni-MH rechargeable batteries (like Eneloop) for the best recycle times and longer battery life.
