    This is my favorite of the videos I've seen from you folks. Very practical and economical in terms of delivering usable tips. When you mention a technique you follow it almost immediately with an image that demonstrates how that technique affects images. Good job.

    Embarrassing novice question – I've purchased the Godox X1T transmitter and receiver for my Canon speedlite. I'm purchasing a second speedlite (Canon 600 EXii-RT). Do I have to purchase a second receiver to have both speedlites fire simultaneously?
