Like the premium Pro-D3, the D30 offers three unique flash modes: Eco, Boost, and Freeze, catering to various performance needs. In Freeze mode, the flash duration reaches an impressive 1/21,100 sec, effectively freezing motion, while the rapid recycling time of 0.01 sec ensures reliability without misfires. With an extensive power range of 11 stops, adjustable in 0.1 f-stop increments, the D30 provides both flexibility and consistency. It is compatible with Profoto Air functions, including sync, TTL, HSS, and remote control, allowing users to easily manage strobe settings via a clear, user-friendly local display. Additionally, the AC power multi-voltage circuitry enables the D30 to be utilized globally. Made for Studio Work Profoto is dedicated to meeting the needs of photographers utilizing professional strobe lighting in small to medium studio environments. The D30 features an intuitive interface complemented by remarkable specifications, including robust output, TTL compatibility, integrated AirX connectivity, high-speed sync (HSS), and a newly added bright bi-color LED modeling light. The D30 is versatile enough to accommodate a wide range of photographic demands, providing compatibility with Profoto's extensive array of acclaimed light-shaping tools, in addition to the efficient Profoto Camera and Profoto Control applications. Rapid Recycling, Flash Duration & HSS Rapid recycling guarantees that transient gestures and significant moments are captured rather than overlooked. This monolight is capable of delivering extremely brief flash durations of up to 1/21,100 seconds in Freeze mode, resulting in sharp, action-stopping photographs. This feature is particularly advantageous for dance, sports, or fashion photography. Furthermore, High-Speed Sync (HSS) is perfect for shooting with a wide aperture in bright environments or for freezing motion with complete clarity. Variety of Modes The flash head typically operates in Eco mode, which emphasizes color accuracy and extends its lifespan. In scenarios that require additional intensity, a Boost mode is accessible to direct the light precisely as needed. Additionally, a Freeze mode provides rapid flash durations that can halt motion, allowing for the capture of liquid sprays and splashes, as well as facilitating various creative effects. Intuitive Onboard Controls The dependable and user-friendly features that we have come to anticipate from Profoto are all included. The design incorporates sophisticated, easily discernible controls alongside a clear screen display, enabling straightforward local adjustments.
