As a further development of the A1X, the new Profoto A10 studio light has integrated AirX technology and Bluetooth and therefore can also be controlled with a smartphone. The compactness of the studio lights is identical, as is the light output with a flash of 76Ws and continuous light with LEDs. With AirX technology, the smallest of the Profoto devices enables true cross-device connectivity, both within the Profoto range and beyond.
The Profoto A10 camera lights, just like that of its predecessor, can be controlled naturally and creatively. In combination with the many available light shapers, there are many creative possibilities.
The Profoto A10 is intuitive to use, and AirTTL and HSS make it quick and easy to achieve professional results. If the A10 is used on the camera, it also serves as an AirTTL trigger, ie you can quickly and easily connect other Profoto flashes and control them from the A10. It is not only an on-camera flash system but also an independent off-camera flash. In addition, the photography light device has a short battery charging time and large power capacity.
