Best off camera flash I’ve ever had. I’m in love with how easy it is to use and how powerful it is. Once you go profoto you can never go back

Very fast recycling and lovely quality of light. The two things I purchased it for. Very happy so far.

A little less than two years ago, Profoto announced the A1 — an on-camera flash made by a company with one of the strongest reputations for professional studio lighting. With much fanfare, the highly-reviewed product immediately made a splash in the creator community....READ MORE
Profoto Connect is the button-free trigger that integrates your camera and Profoto light – making light shaping easier than ever before. It only has three settings; auto, manual and off. In auto mode, you just point and shoot for a good exposure, because the flash power is calculated for you. And in manual mode, you can fine-tune the light either manually or via the Profoto app.
The Profoto app is available for iPhone 7 and later, running on iOS 11 and later. This app is required for full control of the Profoto Connect and for making firmware upgrades.

Like its predecessor, the A1X is created for passionate photographers and image creators, offering them a super-compact, light and portable solution that can turn any location into a studio. The A1X gives you a new battery, faster recycling time, up to 20 channels and a new user interface similiar to the B10. And, the news everyone has been waiting for: The A1X is available for Sony.

The Profoto A1X is designed with light shaping capabilities; it has a unique round head with a soft, smooth fall-off that makes it easy to create a natural and beautiful light. It also has a smart magnetic mount and three dedicated A1 Light Shaping Tools included that click on and off quickly and easily – a Dome Diffuser and Bounce Card. They can also be stacked for more creative options.

The A1X also offers a built-in LED modeling light that makes it easy to set the light and understand how light and shadows work together. And it’s extremely easy of use. The user interface is large, clean and clear. Like all Profoto products it’s intuitive to use and you don’t need to read a long instruction manual to understand how it works. AirTTL remote is also built in to the A1X. With AirTTL and HSS you create professional results fast and easy and with the remote you can seamless connect to other Profoto flashes and control them easily from the A1X.

Profoto A1X is not only an on-camera flash, it’s also very effective off-camera as a standalone unit. The A1X has its own Li-Ion high capacity battery built-in which lasts up to four times longer than AA batteries with no performance fade, and a facility to recharge quickly. So, you can shoot for longer with confidence. A1X can keep up with you because it recycles four times faster than other on-camera solutions – that’s 1.0s at full power. Put simply, you’ll never miss a shot.
