Profoto B30 Camera Flash Head Features

Twice the power with precise control

With 11 full f-stops of range (0.5 – 500 Ws) and micro-precision 0.1 f-stop increments, the B30 gives you total command over every lumen.

Speed meets stamina

The B30 is 13% faster than the B10X Plus, meaning you get recycling times down to 0.01 seconds and up to 220 full-power flashes per charge. This means you can keep shooting while others are still waiting for their lights to breathe.

40W of bi-color LED

The built-in 40W LED offers over 50% more output than the B10X Plus, with smooth dimming from 100–1%, an ultra-wide color temperature range from 2800K to 7000K, and a CRI >94. Perfect for photo, video, live streaming, and whatever you dream up next.

Infinite flexibility with three flash modes

Whether you’re freezing motion or managing long shoots, the Profoto B30 is built to adjust. Freeze Mode, Boost Mode, and Eco Mode gives you everything you need for all shooting environments!

User-replaceable flash tube

The flash tube is user-exchangeable, so when the time comes, swap it out on set and keep the shoot rolling.

Studio ready wireless wonder

With Profoto AirX built in, the B30 works flawlessly with AirTTL remotes and apps. You get sync, TTL, HSS, and full remote control from up to 330 ft away. The 3.5mm sync port also gives you plug-and-play studio flexibility.

Frictionless UI

Like all Profoto lights, the B30 boasts the intuitive, fuss-free Profoto interface. Just smooth, user-focused controls that let you create without breaking flow.

Heavy-duty durability

We’re talking rugged rubberized construction built for field abuse. Pair it with the optional ergonomic handle for maximum control over large modifiers.

120+ Light shaping tools at your fingertips

The B30 plays perfectly with over 120 Profoto light shapers, including the RFi 4x6’ softbox. Whether it’s soft, hard, dramatic, or surreal — your lighting style is just a modifier away.

Ready for the Long Haul

With a powerful lithium-ion battery — you get 220 full-power flashes, 50 minutes of continuous light, and a full charge in under 90 minutes.
