Congratulations on your new  
Profoto product!

Regardless if you chose a new flash or a new light shaping tool, know 
that more than half a century’s worth of experience was put into its 
making. 

If the years have taught us one thing, it is never to neglect a single 
detail. We only put our name on a product in which we have the fullest 
confidence. Before shipping, every one of our products passes an 
extensive and strict testing program. Unless it complies with the 
specified performance, quality and safety, it is a no-go. 

As a result, we are confident that your new Profoto product will stay 
with you for years and help you grow as a photographer. But getting the 
product is only the beginning of that journey. Using it for light shaping 
is the real adventure for today and into the future. That is why we take 
pride in providing you such a wide assortment of light shaping tools 
and continuing to bring you the latest technology to our products, 
allowing you to shape the light in any way you can imagine across any 
devices.

The almost infinite possibilities might seem bewildering at first, but 
we’re certain you will soon get the hang of it.

Make sure you download our Profoto app and sign up to MyProfoto 
account to manage your Profoto devices and stay updated with 
product news and updates. You’ll also receive insights, tips and tricks 
from leading photographers on how to shape light; because we hope 
that sharing our experiences from over 50 years of light shaping will 
inspire you to grow even further.

Enjoy your Profoto product.

Conny Dufgran, founder
