Control your off-camera lighting without leaving your shooting position.
Rent the Godox X3 for Canon to wirelessly trigger and adjust compatible Godox flashes from your camera. Whether you’re planning a portrait session, photographing products, or trying off-camera lighting for the first time, this compact touchscreen transmitter keeps lighting adjustments close at hand.
Why Rent the X3?
-
Adjust your lights from the camera. Change the output of compatible Godox flashes individually or in groups.
-
Choose automatic or manual exposure. Canon E-TTL II helps with changing situations, while manual flash settings provide consistent output.
-
Get a starting exposure quickly. TCM converts a TTL exposure into a manual power setting for further adjustment.
-
Work with flash outdoors. High-speed sync supports shutter speeds up to 1/8000 second with compatible cameras and flashes—useful for wider apertures in bright daylight.
-
Keep your kit compact. The approximately 48g transmitter features an OLED touchscreen with adjustable brightness and a screen lock.
-
Recharge via USB-C. A built-in lithium battery powers the transmitter.
A Good Fit For
Portrait sessions, small product shoots, location photography, and Canon photographers who want to try the Godox wireless lighting system before purchasing their own transmitter.
Pair it with a compatible Godox flash to explore lighting direction, softened light, and the balance between flash and the light already in your scene.
Check Your Compatibility
This rental is the Canon version, model X3-C, designed for compatible Canon EOS cameras.
It controls flashes using the Godox 2.4GHz X wireless system. A compatible flash or receiver is required and rented separately. TTL and high-speed sync availability depend on your camera and flash combination.
The X3 does not directly communicate with Canon’s RT wireless flash system. If you’re unsure whether it will work with your equipment, tell us which camera and flash you’ll be using so we can help check compatibility.
The Looking Glass Take
Once you’ve placed your light where you want it, being able to adjust it from the camera makes the rest of the shoot easier. You can stay with your subject, make a small change, and see what happens.
The X3 is a useful rental for a specific shoot, especially if you’re putting together a portable Godox lighting kit. It’s also a practical way to try touchscreen control and off-camera flash before deciding what to buy.
