Works Perfectly, and is the best solution for the Leica SL2 & SL2s with a Profoto set up.

Best For Leica SL2 & SL2s

Happy with Choice of lighting

Needed to buy this for my X1D, got a second for 5DSR and the Sync model for any non Air Remote packs - all work perfectly together.

Nikon version for X1D, Canon version for 5DSR

This is so easy to use.  I have used other vendors' products but by far this is so easy and intuitive it blows the rest of them away.

Easy to use

A great product! Profoto can do no wrong and this trigger is no different. It is very easy to use, always works and I'll never use a different trigger.

Best in the game

Absolutely Fantastic!

Pretty good does the job. wish it was easier to turn off the automatic shut off mode. And the battery dies way too easily. Lastly, way too expensive.

It?s okay

This remote works very well and is dependable. I only wish it was included with the lights and not and extra purchase since the lights don't work without it.

Good reliable remote

These things are the best. I dropped my last one but after 3 years of it working flawlessly I can?t complain. Just don?t drop things on tile like an idiot. 

They?re super useful. Controls all lights and groups. Literally never fails. They?re fantastic.

So good buying another

This product works great and is easy to use. For what it is, it?s expensive, but I understand the importance of having it? which is why they can probably get away with the cost haha! 

I will say that the door to the battery compartment feels semi fragile and I?m hoping it doesn?t get broken. Fortunately the product is warrantied for 2 years so I will get over it (as long as it doesn?t break on 2 years & 1 day that is).

Works Great & Easy to Use

The most convenient piece of equipment for my profoto lights. I am able to connect how many ever lights I want without any issues!

Convenient

After a few years of use, the Profoto Air Remote TTL has proven to be reliable at the advertised distances. I only wish it could have more than 3 groups available. The non-TTL version has A-F.

Reliable at advertised distance

Perfect

Works as advertised, controls profoto studio lamps.

Air Remote with TTL

Works great with our D1000 heads. Needed to replace a broken one

Great remote

Flawless every time, this is the best kit around.  Everything works perfectly and fires every time.. Profoto is such an amazing company!

Best system you can buy

A good product

great product as with all profoto devices-well built and does the job.

This product was so easy to use right out of the box. Saves me the trouble from getting tangled with the sync cord. It doesn't add much weight to my camera. I really appreciate that it comes with batteries.

Game changer!

Looked just as described... worked as described. I’m used to using pocket wizards but this is like magic... no more running between lights and camera. I can change the light from the air remote!

Works like magic

Essential

amazing product, love that i don't have to physically go up to the light and change the setting.

Amazing powerful tool!

This is a highly competent and functional product.  I watched several videos on the Profoto systems before I purchased this remote and, like the pros said, this remote never misses a shot for me.  It also blows away the Pocket Wizards on reliability.  The remote is reasonably well designed and has a solid function display.  It is intuitive (with minimal instruction and orientation) and seems fairly well adapted to it's purpose. It does not, however, display any actual active information from the heads it is controlling, like the actual flash power setting numbers, etc.  It will show what the remote is telling the head to do (like +1, or +2.2 stops from where you already had it).  The physical build quality seems solid, but not particularly advanced or rugged.  The build styling is somewhat archaic and cheap-looking.  Overall it appears to be a solid device with a good reputation in the photo community, but it's a "Mercedes expense" on a "Honda value" product.  Hence only a 3.

Solid device but at a Mercedes price

The Transceiver is a solid and reliable performer. I use I primarily with my Hasselblad H6D-50C. It syncs at shutter speeds up to 1/1600s with Full power on my B1's and A1. I can make the fine adjustments to flash power on the various head right at the camera. I meter my initial set up, but when fine adjustments are needed in flash power, it does it fast and reliably.

Just what I needed!

Profoto has the best customer service . 
Recently while on a shoot a Air remote stopped working . I called profoto they had me send the unit in (Fed Ex overnite) on them,  it was determined the pins were not functioning. They overnighted a new unit the Next day. In the mean time I bought another from Adorama as a back up.  Adorama and Profoto stepped up to the plate with their best in the biz service.  Thanks again !!!

Adorama and Profoto service best in the Biz!

Excellent product, completely over priced.  I would suggest buying used on eBay.

Excellent Product at a Premium

Works well. Expensive but ultimately worth it to avoid tying yourself up with sync cords. If you can’t afford it, you can also sync your flash up to the profoto battery to fire the lights! lil trick I learned waiting for this to be delivered... haha

Wish it wasn’t so expensive

This is my second air remote ( I do event photography and needed a backup). Works flawlessly.
