Great travel lights

So far I love these lights. I bought them to provide more fire power with my D2s. I love how compact these lights are, they are always ready for travel. Added bonus that they can be used with all my other Profoto accessories I already own. I would recommend these lights to anyone with deep pockets thats in the market for great travel lights. I dislike that there is no sync connection. These lights can only be used with the Profoto remote so if you want to use it with other camera you better have the universal remote. Also when the battery is not attached the little connection prongs are fragile. I accidentally bent on within the first 10 minutes of own it. Wish there were an empty battery guard to protect the prongs when traveling by air since you have to carry on lithium ion batts.

About Profoto B10 Plus

PRO REVIEW by Lindsay Adler, Fashion and Beauty Photographer

"This compact strobe is an incredible on-location light. It’s super light-weight with a small footprint and amazing 500 watt output. Just a few years ago it would have been impossible to imagine this fantastic technology was on the way — and now it's an essential part of my kit."

ALC:Profoto Announces the B10 Plus Air TTL Off Camera Flash, Twice as Powerful as the B10


Today, Profoto has officially announced the brand new B10 Plus, the second wave of the B10 product line, adding an extra stop of light in a slightly larger package. The launch of the B10 last year was notable and I have received countless emails and direct messages from people who use and love the light, and this new release just builds upon that trusted legacy.

Size Matters


One of the biggest issues you'll have when shooting on location happens before you even arrive; How much gear to take. Too much and you're weighed down by lights and cables - take too little and you might not be able to deliver the images you'd hoped for. That insight drove Profoto to create two seriously small lights; Profoto B10 and B10 Plus. The B10 Plus is the most powerful of the two. Ten times more powerful than a speedlight in a package that's similar in size and weight to a long camera lens, so it easily fits in any camera bag.

B10 Plus

Versatile


Not only is the B10 Plus powerful, small, lightweight and easy to take on location; it's flexible too. The integrated continuous light, with a wide range of light output from bright to gentle, means you can shoot both stills and video. And the adjustable color temperature makes it easy to blend the light from the B10 with the ambient light.

B10 Plus

Tools to Shape the Light


Light shaping tools exist to help you be more creative with light. With the Profoto B10 Plus you can use any tool from the lightweight OCF family or select from over 120 light shaping tools available from the full Profoto range. So no matter what mood or feeling you want to create - you have the tools to make it happen

Light shaping tools

Easy to Use, Quick to Set Up


Ease of use has always been a priority for Profoto when designing their products. As a result, you'll find a clean and minimal interface that makes The B10 Plus easy to use straight from the box. The battery is quick and easy to switch in and out, and you can also charge it while it's in use. And the stand adaptor can be removed so it can be mounted on both camera tripods and light stands.

The New Profoto Smartphone App: Control.

The existing Profoto iOS app has been renamed to Profoto Control and will allow you to use your smart-phone to control the light output, color temperature and other features of your Profoto Air X lights (A10, B10, B10 Plus and Pro 11).

The new Profoto Camera app available for Profoto
Available now the Profoto Camera app is optimized for professional light, which, makes it unique and the best smartphone camera there. You’re able to shoot, edit and publish professional images right from your phone. The app is available for iOS and can be used with iPhone 7 or newer and the Android beta available for the Samsung Galaxy S8, S9, S10, S20 and Note 9 line of smartphones.

The missing piece to go from good to outstanding is light
Smartphone cameras have made a huge change for consumers when it comes to photography. Yet the missing piece in the evolution of (smartphone) photography is not more computational power or optics. It is light.

Elevate the pro photographers
Profoto enables the use of professional flash by seamlessly integrating Profoto professional flash with smartphones. Profoto Camera is the only professional smartphone camera Giving photographers the freedom to choose their capturing device without sacrificing the ability to shape light.
