Profoto OCF Adapter is here The OCF Adapter brings dozens of Profoto light shapers and a world of creative potential to its A-series lights
Launched in 2017, the Profoto A1 was touted as the world’s smallest studio light from the beginning and the speedlight- sized flashgun had the credentials for creative imaging with its magnetic fit modifiers, specially designed round head and full compatibility with its studio light systems. The range has offered the A1, A1X, A10 and now Profoto has launched the OCF Adapter, which opens up all sorts of
creative opportunities. The adapter fits all A-series lights, accepts all OCF light-shaping tools, features an integrated lighting brolly fitting and a mount. This means it can be fixed directly on all standard lighting stands. It’s solidly made and easy to use, making it the ideal accessory for all Profoto A-series owners. The Profoto OCF Adapter is now on sale for £269. profoto.com
