The Godox AD300ProII Portable Flash & S3 Bowens Bracket Kit combines a powerful battery-operated flash with a practical way to use a wider range of light modifiers. This basic two-piece kit is a practical starting point if you already have a light stand and modifiers, or want to build a portable lighting system around the AD300ProII.
The AD300ProII provides up to 300Ws of flash power in a compact battery-operated format, making it a useful option when you need more control outdoors or in brighter rooms without moving to a larger mains-powered studio flash. Its output can be adjusted across a 10-stop range from 1/512 to full power in 0.1-stop increments. This fine adjustment makes it easier to balance the flash against available light or make smaller changes to an established lighting setup.
The included S3 bracket gives the AD300ProII access to compatible Bowens S-Type light modifiers. Once the flash is secured inside the bracket, a Bowens S-Type softbox can be used to create broader, softer illumination. Other compatible modifiers such as beauty dishes, reflectors and snoots can be used when a more focused or directional result is required.
This basic kit concentrates on two essential components: the AD300ProII flash and the S3 bracket required to connect it to Bowens S-Type modifiers. If you already own suitable stands and modifiers, it provides a straightforward way to add a portable 300Ws flash to your lighting equipment without duplicating accessories.
Start with the flash and bracket, then choose the stand and modifier that best suit the way you work. This makes the kit particularly useful for photographers who want to build their lighting setup gradually.
