Profoto ComPact 300 - Manual (Page 6)

Thanks for showing us
your confidence by investing in
a Profoto ComPact system.
For more than three decades we have sought the perfect light. What pushes us is the conviction
that we can offer even the most demanding photographer yet better tools.
Before our products are shipped we have them pass an extensive and strict testing program.
We check that they pass the quality and capacity levels the most demanding photographers
require. For this reason our flash equipment is the standard in most rental studios in New
York and Tokyo and the most rented flash all over the world.
The system consists of a variety of generators built and designed to meet the demands of
the most demanding photographers on this planet.
Quality of Light
Yet the most important thing is the light you create and it is then essential that the system
offers freedom to create your own light. The ComPacts in particular offer you this possibility.
The light source, both the flash tube and the modelling light, is placed high and free in the
flash head. This makes it easier for you to adjust the light and use your creativity.
The reflectors are moveable and lock easily into place. By moving the position of the reflector
you can get a higher or lower concentration of light in the center or more of a flood light.
This is not new, of course. Our flash heads have always been designed that way. What is new,
however, is our new glass cover, which is designed to increase precision. The ComPacts are
supplied with a frosted and uncoated glasscover, which together with the flash tube, produce
a colour temperature adapted to daylight colour film. There are glass covers with varying
filtration, for greater diversity.
The whole ComPact system is modular. Every single reflector and accessory creates its
special light and the unique Profoto focusing system offers you a possibility to create your
own distinctive light using only a few reflectors.
Thanks
