Profoto Acute2

Acute2

Acute2 1200

Profoto Acute2 flash generators are remarkably small and lightweight, perfect for the “pro on the go”. They can be used with Acute/D4 flash heads that accept all Profoto light shaping tools. Acute2 generators are easy to use, very reliable and offer an excellent value.

Similar to the Acute2 2400, the 1200 offers even faster recycling and shorter flash durations in an even smaller package, at 19x22x13 cm (7.5x8.7x5.1”) weighing a mere 4.1 kg (9 lbs). The perfect choice when 1200 Ws is enough.

Acute2 2400 Maximum performance on the go. Designed for top performance, the fan-cooled Acute2 2400 allows studio pack features in a small size convenient for travel. Or what about three asymmetric outlets, 2400Ws maximum output, a 6 f-stop energy range, and flash durations of 1/1800-1/320s in a box weighing no more than 6.1 kg (13.4 lbs) You simply don’t get more power per pound than that.

Light Shaping Tool system At the heart of Profoto lies the Light Shaping System. Over 120 light modifiers allow unprecedented creative control. The ProHead, Pro-B head and ProRing2 are fully compatible with the Profoto Pro-B3 generator and give access to all Profoto light shaping tools.

Acute/D4 Head

Acute/D4 Twin

Acute/D4 Ringflash

With a modeling light of 250 W or 500 W and a maximum ﬂash output of 4800 Ws, the Acute/D4 Head is the top of the line of all lamp head for all Acute generators, as well as the Profoto D4, especially with its fan-cooled head. When using this head on the AcuteB 600 there is a special adapter allowing you to use the modeling light with the battery-powered 65 W high efficiency lamp.

Much like the ProTwin, the Profoto Acute/ D4 Twin doubles the performance of a normal head, resulting in either shorter ﬂash duration when used with a single generator, or faster recycling/higher power, when used with two generators. The Acute/D4 Twin can produce ﬂashes up to 1200 Ws, when used with two AcuteB 600 generators (and up to 9600 Ws with two Profoto D4 4800). The Acute/D4 Twin head also has a fan-cooled head.

The Acute/D4 Ring is a powerful ringflash capable of producing, for example, 16 flashes at 600 Ws or 64 flashes at 150 Ws per minute. Fits most cameras and lenses up to a diameter of 100 mm. In combination with the handy AcuteB generator, this ringflash is the perfect solution for shootings on location.

The Acute/D4 Head includes: Zoom Reflector, flash tube, 250 W halogen lamp, removable frosted glass cover, protective transportation cap, and a 4 m (13 ft) lamp cable. 90 06 66 w ith 250 W model light and Zoom Reflector 90 06 69 with 500 W model light and Zoom Reflector
