Overview

The Godox AK-R22 Diffusion Dome is a purpose-built light modifier for photographers who want softer, more flattering output from their Godox round head flashes without hauling a full softbox. It mounts directly onto the Godox V1, AD100Pro, and AD200Pro (with the H200R round head adapter), creating a dome-shaped diffusion surface that scatters the flash output into a broad, even glow. The result is reduced specular highlights and gentler shadow transitions — particularly useful for headshots, event photography, and small product setups where hard light would be unflattering.

Portability is a central design consideration. The dome collapses flat for storage, slipping easily into a side pocket of most camera bags. Setup takes seconds: place it over the round flash head and you are ready to shoot. Because it works within Godox's magnetic accessory ecosystem, it can be combined with other AK-R series modifiers for additional control. The trade-off is the inherent light loss that comes with any diffusion material, meaning you may need to increase flash power or move the light closer to your subject, but for the convenience and quality of light it delivers on location, the AK-R22 is a practical addition to any Godox round head flash kit.
