Godox AK-R16 Color Filter Set for V1 Flash

The Godox AK-R16 is a six-piece magnetic filter set engineered for the round head of the V1 flash series and the H200R head used with the AD200 and AD200 Pro. It includes two translucent diffusion panels and four color gel filters, each attaching directly to the round head via a neodymium magnetic ring — no velcro, no tape, no adapter collar. The diffusion panels scatter the V1's already-soft round-head output further, creating a broader, more even coverage that's particularly flattering for close-range portrait work. The color gels shift the light's color rendition, giving photographers a direct tool for creative color play or ambient light matching without reaching for a separate gel kit.

In practice, the AK-R16 is most valuable to photographers who already own the V1 and want to extend its versatility without adding hardware weight. Event and portrait shooters will find the fast magnetic swap especially useful — changing from neutral to a warm gel between scenes takes seconds. The trade-off is output: every filter layer costs light, and color gels in particular require a conscious power adjustment. This set is not a replacement for a comprehensive gel kit in a fully equipped studio, but as a portable creative add-on for location work or run-and-gun shoots, it fits cleanly into any V1 workflow.
