Thank you for choosing Profoto.Follow the instructions in this booklet to use 
your new product.

Thanks for showing us your confidence by investing in an ProHead. For more than three decades 
we have sought the perfect light. What pushes us is the conviction that we can offer even the most 
demanding photographer yet better tools.

Before our products are shipped we have them pass an extensive and strict testing program.  
We check that they pass the quality and capacity levels the most demanding photographers 
require. For this reason our flash equipment is the standard in most rental studios in New York 
and Tokyo and the most rented flash all over the world.

  
Quality of Light 

The Profoto system consists of different generators built and designed to meet the needs of 
the most demanding photographers. Yet the most important thing is the light you create, and 
it is essential that the system you use offers the freedom to do that. The light source, both the 
flash tube and the modeling light, is placed high and free in the flash head. This makes it easier 
for you to adjust the light and use your creativity. Most reflectors can be moved forward or 
backward in relation to the optical centre of the light source, effectively narrowing or widening 
the spread of the light and changing the intensity and fall-off characteristics as well. Every 
single  reflector  and  accessory  creates  its  special  light  and  the  unique  Profoto  focusing 
system offers you the possibility to create your own light with only a few different reflectors. 
 
Enjoy your Profoto product!
