User Ratings & Reviews:

Demanding photographers need products that deliver. That’s why the Profoto line of flash generators is the most rented in the world. And now we’re setting a new standard for flash photography with the Pro-8a Air, a robust and rugged workhorse built for precision digital shooting, all day.

Profoto Pro-8a Air offers you unmatched product performance in terms of flash duration (1/12,000 s), recycling time at 2400 Ws of 0.9 s, power control and versatility. Generate up to 20 flashes per second, and up to 1000 full power flashes per hour, with a flash-to-flash precision of ± 1/50 f-stop at all power settings. The output power can be adjusted over a full 10 f-stop range, from 5 Ws up to 2400 Ws, in increments of 1/10 f-stop, for really fine-grained control. You will experience flash-to-flash color stability within ± 40° K over the entire power range.

Just like everything in the Profoto system, the Pro-8a Air offers easy-to-use controls based on our user friendly design philosophy of look, listen and touch. The result? The Pro-8a Air frees up your mind, your eyes and your hands, so you can focus on the image you’re creating.
