FAQs
What type of batteries does the Godox iFlash iA32 use?
The iA32 is powered by two AA batteries.
What is the guide number of this flash?
The guide number is 15 meters at ISO 100.
Can this flash be used with any camera?
It features a universal single-contact hot shoe, making it compatible with most cameras that have a standard hot shoe mount for basic flash functions.
Does it support TTL (Through-The-Lens) metering?
No, the iA32 does not support TTL. It operates in Auto and Manual exposure modes.
What is the maximum tilt angle of the flash head?
The flash head can be tilted from -7° to 90°.
Is this flash suitable for large venues or distant subjects?
With a guide number of 15 (ISO 100m), it is best suited for close to mid-range subjects and smaller spaces. For larger areas or longer distances, a flash with a higher guide number would be more appropriate.
How do I switch between Auto and Manual modes?
The specific method for switching modes depends on the controls provided on the flash unit itself. Please refer to the physical markings or user manual for exact button operations.
Troubleshooting
Flash does not fire
Ensure batteries are correctly inserted and charged. Verify the flash is securely mounted on the camera's hot shoe. Check if the camera's flash setting is enabled. Test the flash in Manual mode at full power.
Light output seems inconsistent
If using Auto mode, ensure the camera's exposure settings are appropriate for the ambient light. If using Manual mode, confirm the power level is set correctly. Clean the flash's optical sensor if using in a mode that relies on it.
Flash head is stuck or won't adjust
Gently check for any obstructions around the tilt mechanism. Do not force the head; ensure it is being operated within its specified -7° to 90° range.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Insert two AA batteries into the battery compartment, observing correct polarity.
- Slide the universal single-contact hot shoe foot into your camera's hot shoe until it clicks securely.
- Ensure the flash is firmly mounted before use.
Compatibility:
The iA32 is compatible with cameras that have a standard hot shoe mount. It uses a single central contact for firing, meaning it will work for basic flash functions on most DSLRs and mirrorless cameras. For advanced features like TTL or communication beyond a simple trigger signal, check your camera's manual for hot shoe compatibility.
Care:
- Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Keep the flash head and contacts clean and free of dust.
- Remove batteries when the flash is not in use for extended periods to prevent corrosion.
- Store in a dry, protected environment.
