Building a modern flash generator raises a lot of challenges.
To start with, generators contain two separate techno-
logical systems: There are microprocessors and inte-
grated circuits for control, external interfaces and display.
And there are also powerful high-voltage components
that generates the actual flash.
Not only do the two system have to coincide in the same
limited space, they must also cooperate perfectly,
without disturbing each other. If not, the 1/10 step
adjustments and the Profoto 1/100 f-stop accuracy
would not be possible.
Finally, these two systems must interface a third one:
the professional photographer. That means reducing all
the complicated technology to a simple and rugged set
of knobs, buttons and outlets.
In conclusion, all Profoto generators:
– produce highest quality light, with extreme accuracy,
without being complicated to use.
– are built using durable and finger-friendly materials.
– have a carefully designed layout, in order to make
your everyday work as easy as possible.
– feature maximum security safety when it comes to
high-voltage components and plugs.
– give you visual, audible, as well as tactile feedback -
seeing, hearing, feeling.
