Profoto A1X - The smallest studio flash in the world
The A1X is a Profoto flash through and through - only smaller. Its round flash head delivers light that is as natural as it is beautiful, with a soft fall-off. Not only is it incredibly easy to use, but with its super-fast recycle time and long-lasting battery, you'll never miss a shot again. Enjoy lighting design par excellence - always and everywhere, whether on camera or as an off-camera system.
Why should you choose the A1?
The A1X has a round flash head instead of the typical rectangular shape of other on-camera solutions. Its light is therefore particularly natural and attractive. In addition, its light angle can be easily adjusted with a small turn of the zoom ring on the flash head - from a wide setting with a very gentle light fall-off to a narrow, more focused beam of light.
More than light
Being able to create with light is crucial for producing better, more creative images. For this reason, we have developed our own special light shapers for the A1X, which can be mounted, removed or stacked in no time at all thanks to their intelligent magnetic holder. This means you can always achieve the exact effect you want. You can choose from the Dome Diffuser, Bounce Card, Wide Lens, Gel Kit, Grid Kit and Soft Bounce
More comfort and versatility with AirTTL
Enjoy maximum flexibility thanks to AirTTL. Save the perfect exposure with TTL and benefit from better control and a much faster workflow. Simple, fast and precise - all you have to do is press the shutter button. Communicate seamlessly with a second A1X or other Profoto flash units via "Air". And of course, High Speed Sync is also there whenever you need it
The image in front of your eyes thanks to the modeling light
The A1X's integrated modeling light immediately shows you how light and shadow interact even before you press the shutter button. It can also be used as an additional light source in low ambient light.
No fear of low batteries
The A1X has a replaceable high-performance Li-Ion battery that lasts four times longer than conventional AA batteries without losing power. The battery can also be recharged quickly. This means you are on the safe side even on longer shoots. .
Never miss a picture again
The A1X can also keep up in terms of speed. Its flash recycle time is four times faster than most other on-camera solutions - at 1.0 second at full power. Simply put, you'll never miss a shot again.
Learn faster - more time to shoot
Operating the A1X is child's play. There is no learning phase. Thanks to the simple, clearly structured interface, you won't get bogged down in endless menus. As a result, you have more time for your customers and for the perfect picture.
Grow with the A1
With the A1X at your side, there are no limits to your photographic development. And a second A1X opens up even more possibilities. In combination with more powerful flashes such as the B1X and B10 and the more than 120 available light shapers, the door opens to a world of creative possibilities.
Natural, beautiful light in an instant Profoto A1X
The only difference between the A1X, its predecessor, the A1, and a studio flash is their small size: they fit comfortably in the palm of your hand. This makes the A1X and A1 our only true on-camera solutions.
The A1X delivers light that is as natural as it is beautiful, because like its larger siblings in the Profoto family, the A1X has a round flash head with a very gentle light fall-off. This is what makes its light so wonderfully natural and soft
