V1 Single Flash Translucent Umbrella Lighting Kit

The Godox V1 Single Flash Translucent Umbrella Lighting Kit provides the core equipment needed to turn a portable speedlite into a practical off-camera lighting setup. Built around the Godox V1 Round Head TTL Speedlite, the kit adds a PIXAPRO 40-inch translucent white umbrella with removable backing, Godox S3 S-Type SMART Speedlite Adapter Bracket and PIXAPRO 190cm Standard Light Stand.

The umbrella creates a larger light source than the bare speedlite, helping produce softer, broader illumination for portraits, headshots and other photography. The S3 bracket holds the V1 and provides the connection between the flash, umbrella and stand, while the 190cm stand gives you the height and positioning flexibility needed to move the light away from the camera.

Who this is for

This kit is suited to portrait, event and content photographers looking for a portable single-light setup based around the Godox V1. It is also a practical starting point for photographers learning off-camera flash, providing the flash, modifier, bracket and stand needed to begin experimenting with light position, direction and softness.

How the setup works

Godox V1 Round Head TTL Speedlite

Its round flash head produces smooth light fall-off, while TTL operation provides automatic flash exposure when used with compatible equipment. High-Speed Sync up to 1/8000s provides additional flexibility when balancing flash with brighter ambient conditions or working with wider apertures. The rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery delivers up to 480 full-power flashes per charge, with a recycle time of less than 1.5 seconds at full power. A built-in 2.4GHz wireless receiver also allows the V1 to form part of a compatible wireless off-camera flash setup.

PIXAPRO 40-inch Translucent White Umbrella with Removable Backing

The 40-inch translucent umbrella increases the apparent size of the light source compared with using the V1 bare. Used as part of the off-camera setup, it spreads and diffuses the flash to create broader, softer illumination. The removable backing provides additional flexibility in how the umbrella can be configured.

Godox S3 S-Type SMART Speedlite Adapter Bracket

The S3 bracket brings the lighting components together. It securely supports the V1 for off-camera use and provides an umbrella mounting point for the included modifier. The bracket can be attached to the light stand and tilted to help direct the flash and umbrella towards the subject. It also incorporates a Bowens S-Type modifier fitting, giving you the option to expand beyond the supplied umbrella and use compatible Bowens S-Type light modifiers.

PIXAPRO 190cm Standard Light Stand

Adjustable height allows the V1 and umbrella to be positioned above, below or closer to the subject as required. Moving the flash independently of the camera gives you greater control over light direction and helps create shape and depth.

Why choose this kit

Each component has a clear role: the V1 supplies the flash, the translucent umbrella softens and spreads it, the S3 bracket connects and positions the equipment, and the 190cm stand supports the complete lighting assembly. The result is a portable single-light setup that can be used for straightforward portrait lighting while still providing room to develop.
