Godox X3 Touchscreen TTL Wireless Flash Trigger for Nikon

Move your flash off the camera—and put lighting control at your fingertips.

The Godox X3 for Nikon is a compact wireless transmitter that lets you control compatible Godox flashes from your camera. Place your light where it works best for the photograph, then adjust its settings without walking back and forth.

With an OLED touchscreen, Nikon i-TTL support, and a rechargeable battery, the X3 makes a practical addition to a portable portrait kit or a larger lighting setup.

Features That Make a Difference

• Touchscreen control. Tap and swipe to adjust settings on a bright OLED display. Adjustable brightness helps with visibility, while a screen lock prevents accidental changes.

• Automatic or manual flash exposure. Nikon i-TTL helps you respond to changing situations; manual control lets you set consistent output for a series of photographs.

• TTL-to-manual conversion. TCM converts a TTL exposure into a manual power setting—a useful starting point when you want to establish your lighting quickly, then fine-tune it.

• High-speed sync up to 1/8000 second. With a compatible camera and flash, use shutter speeds above the camera’s normal flash sync limit for outdoor portraits and wider apertures in bright light.

• Wireless control of multiple lights. The Godox 2.4GHz X system lets you organize compatible flashes into groups and adjust their output from the camera.

• Small and lightweight. At approximately 48g, the X3 adds little bulk to your camera.

• USB-C charging. Its built-in rechargeable lithium battery charges in approximately two hours. The USB-C connection also supports firmware updates.

Who Is It For?

The X3 is a useful choice for Nikon photographers making portraits, photographing events, creating product images, or learning off-camera lighting.

Start with one compatible flash and explore how changing its position changes your photograph. As your lighting needs grow, the same transmitter can control a more involved setup.

Compatibility

This is the Nikon version, model X3-N, designed for compatible Nikon cameras and the Godox 2.4GHz X wireless flash system.

A compatible flash or receiver is required and sold separately. TTL, high-speed sync, and other functions depend on the camera and flash combination. Standard Nikon Speedlights require a compatible Godox receiver to work within this system.

The Looking Glass Take

Moving a flash off your camera opens up a lot of possibilities. Light from the side can give a face more shape; light bounced or softened through a modifier can change the whole feeling of a photograph.

The X3 makes experimenting easier because you can adjust your light from where you’re photographing. Its small size is especially appealing for a kit you’ll carry to someone’s home, an outdoor portrait session, or a small workspace. For Nikon photographers building a Godox lighting kit, it’s a useful piece that can stay with you as you learn.
