The right light at the right time, time after time
They’re both multipurpose. This means whether you’re shooting video or still, the B10X and B10X Plus can take it in their stride. Less gear, more shooting! Both have been re-designed, so they provide ease-of-use, straight out of the box. Batteries are quick and easy to switch in and out and can be charged while in use. B10X and B10X Plus also include improved useful features. Like increased continuous light output from 2500lm to 3250lm. That’s a 30% increase. And both lights provide faster recycling speed than the B10's.
B10X and B10X Plus also feature Profoto’s Bluetooth-enabled technology AirX, enabling you to unleash the full power of the B10X and B10X Plus also when shooting with your smartphone. Making it possible to capture, edit and publish with the same device. Thereby dramatically reducing the time from creative concept to published image.
