I ordered mine Tueaday, got here Wednesday =)

I can safely say that Godox is the way forward and Cactus unfortunately lost the plot this summer.

It's taking a lot of time to come to France then !

Got mine a week or so ago. Works great with my studio strobes.

Just purchased the X-Pro P and Flashpoint XPLOR 400PRO.

Bundled with a Godox TT350P for $A168 (about $US120 at current rates): Godox TT350P TTL HSS 1/8000s Flash Speedlite + Xpro-P Transmitter For Pentax | eBay A great deal, considering the best price I could find on the TT350P was $A114. So only $A54 ($US38) extra for the XPro-P.

Just got the XPLOR 400PRO and it is an eye opener. Very easy to use and pretty amazing. Didn't even have to connect the trigger to the flash, it found the flash automatically. It just works perfectly right out of the box.

I shoot interiors using a K3. I just purchased the AD200 w/ XPro trigger. I shoot using a one light technique meaning I take multiple frames of one scene and in post production I layer mask in desired parts of those multiple images. Anyway, to the problem I’ve run into.

I always begin shooting each scene using the K3, 5 stop bracketing feature in (Av)Aperture priority. However, when the XPro is switched on, and the AD200 is not powered on (again trying to achieve ambient only images) the bracketing feature doesn’t work. It simply shoots the 5 exposures at the very exposure the camera is initially set. I’ve tried bracketing in other modes but with the same outcome.
I was using a Phottix trigger w/ Yongnuo flashes and did not have this problem.
Any advice?

Got mine, works well manual and TTL on AD200.

Also, I have non-godox flashes. Is there a way to use this transmitter with them?

You'd have to use one of the X1R receivers. They exists for Canon, Nikon, and Sony.

You won't have TTL support, though, and most likely no HSS either.
I wouldn't expect support beyond basic triggering (up to and including the camera's sync-speed) and possibly remote power level control (the latter is rather likely, AFAIC). You may also use the X1R receivers to trigger studio strobes via their sync-port. Again, only basic triggering (no HSS or even TTL) and definitely no power level control in such cases.

For cross-brand compatibility, the Cactus system is unsurpassed. However, Godox supports full compatibility between all the brand-specific trigger variants (e.g., XPro-P for Pentax) and many of their flashes/strobes. So if you only use Godox lights then you almost get the same flexibility, as you can share the latter between all your camera systems (as long as you have a brand-specific trigger for each system). Also, Godox offers a much larger range of lighting solutions. After the RQ250 initiative failed, Cactus is left with the RF60X only. The latter is a very capable speedlight, but doesn't hold a candle to the AD200, or even more powerful mobile lighting solutions from Godox, such as the AD400 PRO or AD600 (PRO).
