Profoto – Light Shaping Tools

ProGlobe

10 06 73

(including Speed Ring)

The ProGlobe gives an enveloping light that engulfs the subject

in a manner very similar to a bare bulb. Due to the large size

of this light shaping tool, the effect created is very soft.

Visually reminiscent of a street lamp in the overall direction

of illumination, it produces softer shadows and less harsh

highlights then its urban counterpart. Cinematographers

call this a “Chinese lantern”. Its soft glow is perfect for a

quick location setup or in combination with large soft boxes

for illumination of larger sets such as furniture and interiors.

The ProGlobe creates very soft light – similar to window

light – over a large area when used in combination with big

softboxes. It can also be used as a background light or

placed underneath a table for product photography.

Profoto Special Tools for Light Shaping

The 7.9x11.8”/20x30cm size is perfect for most tabletop

applications, however if situations call for a larger light

source, the ProBox excels simply by stacking several boxes

together. The wrap of the edge permits additional units to

be joined seamlessly when ﬁred. Since the ProBox accepts

standard heads it offers true proportional modeling light

control, and the use of multiple boxes also permit higher light

output when several boxes are used.

Spotlights

For highly concentrated and directional light Profoto

Spotlights are meant to create striking light effects.

Spotlights provide focused light, but of different character

and form. Profoto Spotlights accept all Pro-7, Acute series

lamp heads, and all ComPact units.

ProBox

90 05 61

The ProBox is primarily meant to provide even lighting for

small subjects. Similar in effect to a small soft box, the

ProBox offers additional advantages of being rigid.

Reﬂections in glass and silver can often show wrinkles and

imperfections in soft fabric diffusers. The solid face of the

ProBox offers perfectly even, edge-to-edge illumination

without reﬂection. And since the front is waterproof, it is

perfectly suited to “Pour” or “Splash” shots as it can be

quickly dried in between exposures to keep reﬂections clean.

Profoto FresnelSpot

10 07 41

Average sized classical spotlight for still life, pack shot, food,

fashion and people photography, it creates the typical “movie

light” with sharp, deep shadows and high colour saturation.

When used from a shorter distance, the shadows are more

open and the light fall-off is reduced – this makes this spot also

perfectly suited for crisp still-life pictures.

The FresnelSpot has a built-in ﬂashtube, which increases

the efficiency and gives 100% conformity of model and ﬂash

light for total light control. F-stop at 2m, 100 ASAand

2400Ws is 64. High quality Fresnel lens with 175mm/6.9”

diameter. Adjustable from 10°-50° light spread. Small

(21x25x32cm/8.2x9.8x12.6”) and lightweight (8kg/17.5lb.)

housing for its size. Active fan cooling allows continuous use.

Optional barn doors for stray light control. Integrated support

for ﬁlters and masks.Rigid and stable construction allows

heavy duty use. Max. 650W model light and up to 2400Ws

ﬂash capacity.
