The Profoto B1X 500 AirTTL 2-Light Location Kit is a robust and versatile lighting solution for photographers who need portability, power, and professional-grade features for location shoots. Here’s a breakdown of its key features:
- Brighter LED Modeling Lights: The B1X flash heads feature modeling lights that are 80% brighter than its predecessor, the B1. This is helpful for better previewing your lighting and for video work, as it provides more accurate lighting setup before the actual flash.
- Increased Battery Capacity: The battery has been improved to provide 50% more capacity, delivering 325 full-power flashes per charge, which makes it ideal for extended shoots without the need to frequently recharge.
- High-Speed Sync (HSS): One of the standout features is the ability to use HSS across the full 9-stop power range, which allows for more creative control when shooting with fast shutter speeds, such as when balancing flash with natural light or freezing action.
- Comprehensive Kit for Location Shoots: The kit includes two flash heads, both an AC battery charger and a car charger, giving flexibility for charging in various locations. The Backpack M makes it easy to transport the gear.
- Durable Design: The B1X maintains the rugged polymer housing that Profoto is known for, ensuring it can handle the demands of on-location shooting. The built-in receiver is compatible with Air Remote TTL remotes, offering seamless control over your lights wirelessly.
- User-Friendly Controls: The controls and display are designed for ease of use, with intuitive buttons and a clear, highly visible display to make adjustments quickly in the field.
This kit is ideal for photographers looking for high-performance lighting gear that combines the convenience of battery operation with professional features, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor shoots.
