The Godox V1, which has been in the news for allegedly stealing its design from the Profoto A1, is now available for pre-order from B&H Photo for the modest price of $259, available for Canon, Sony, Nikon, and Panasonic/Olympus. The same flash is for sale at Adorama under the Flashpoint name for the same price: $259.
At this price, you can buy almost FOUR of the Godox V1 flash units for the price of a single Profoto A1, which still cost about $1000 (but are currently on sale for $800).
