All that, and more inspired the Profoto B10 – a big light in a small package.

Why choose the Profoto B10

The B10 is similar in size to a medium camera lens. The light punches significantly above its weight delivering five times the power of a speedlight. Light that's natural and beautiful with a soft, gentle fall-off.

In addition to the range of Profoto AirTTL options for wireless trigger and control, the B10 series now has Profoto AirX technology inside. Providing the freedom to connect camera, app, and the B10 seamlessly and invisibly in the blink of an eye. And for the first time, that includes the camera within your smartphone thanks to a breakthrough in Bluetooth synchronization. As well as having all the functionality and control the app brings, you can now unleash the full power of flash and capture the image via your smartphone camera*.

You can shoot video with continuous light, and both brightness and color temperature are easily adjusted to blend with the ambient light. For convenience, you can just as easily mount the light on a camera tripod as on a light stand, and because the B10 is super lightweight, you can even use it handheld.

With a dozen light-shaping tools in our compact and lightweight OCF family, and 120 more available from the full Profoto family, you can create and shape any kind of light with the B10 series. A range of Profoto AirTTL options for wireless trigger and control means they are compatible with any major camera brand, while the Profoto Control app lets you play with light and shadow to create amazing images with either light from your smartphone.

You can point and shoot with TTL or switch to manual control at any time.

I love the super-fast recycling times, the power and the flexibility - and having no misfires at all. […] Most of all it gives me the freedom to shoot the images I want, and that’s great.
