A responsive 2-inch colour touchscreen works alongside traditional buttons and controls, making it quick and easy to adjust settings whilst shooting. The clean interface helps keep operation simple whether you're working with TTL automation or manually controlling your flash output.
Built-In Wireless Control
Featuring Godox's proven 2.4GHz X Wireless System, the V480 can function as both a transmitter and receiver.

Power That Lasts All Day
The included VB22 rechargeable lithium-ion battery delivers up to 650 full-power flashes per charge whilst maintaining fast recycle times of approximately 1.7 seconds. USB-C charging allows you to conveniently recharge or top up the battery between shoots using a wide range of power sources.
Built for Bounce Flash
The flash head tilts from -7° to 120° vertically and rotates 330° horizontally, making it easy to bounce light from walls and ceilings. Combined with the built-in catchlight panel and wide-angle diffuser, the V480 gives photographers multiple ways to create softer, more flattering lighting straight out of the box.
Ready for Expansion
The V480 integrates seamlessly into the wider Godox ecosystem. It can be used with Godox X-Series triggers, the S2 Speedlite Bracket for Bowens mount modifiers, and the S-R2 adapter for compatibility with the popular AK-R1 magnetic accessory kit. This flexibility allows the flash to grow alongside your lighting needs.
