Profoto Camera
The professional smartphone camera

Profoto Camera

Cameras have changed through the years. They have become smaller and more compact, and now they even inhabit the smartphone in your pocket. As a result, photography has become more accessible to a more significant number of people than ever before. Photographers, creatives, and content creators are all competing for their images to be seen.

Professional photographers, and those who aspire to be, use external light -such as flash to create the fantastic images they capture, regardless of the camera they choose to use. After all, light is the very essence of photography, and using light well can be the difference between an average image and a photograph that gets noticed. Since 1968 Profoto has constantly innovated, and the Profoto Camera is the perfect example of that; the best smartphone camera because it's optimized for light.
