Can never get enough of your shots.
Really appreciate that bud thank you so much
Who would have thought, back in the 90s, that this would even be possible!? Excellent demo Seth and the Adorama team!
Who knows where we’ll be with all this but seems like there’s more and more integration happening on all fronts
Seth you demo of the A10 is clinical. The shoot results were so good. Thanks for the detailed overview.
Wow thank you so much
Great demonstration and awesome results!!
Thank you!
Great stuff Seth! Enjoyed this very much
Thanks so much Jim hope you’re well!
Very cool. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Thanks Jose!
Great portrait
Thank you!
Thank you, Seth! I always love hearing and then seeing what you're thinking, in regard to the lighting.
THANKS MIKE!
Nice shots Seth.
Thank you!
Great job...loved the set up and the info. I was just getting ready to pull the trigger on two A1Xs...now I need to give it a bit more thought!
Well the A1x is gonna have a nice price drop so if you don’t think you’ll be needing the Bluetooth capabilities seems like a good time to pull that trigger
Great demo Seth. The chocolate gel on the b10 was a nice touch.
Ah thank you !
This is great. I love innovation. Thanks for the demo!
Thanks so much Patty!
@@LastXwitness you are a master of light. I always love to watch your demos.
Great us of speedlights! Great overview!
Thanks Ab!
Great setup to demo this light, Seth...Keep it up!
Thank you! I plan on it lol
WOW!!! love the Images Seth .
Thank you so much!
Thank you for the demonstration of how the app interfaces with the lights. That is nice to have that level of remote control. I like the light/modifier setup you used as it flattered the model well and took good advantage of your location.
David Cooper thanks so much I really appreciate that! I can’t recommend the Lastolite Halo system enough it’s been in all my bags from the day it came out www.adorama.com/lsllr3320.html
It gets more and more advanced 👍
pretty much!
About shutter Drag, i have A10 and A1x trying to fire the flash before closing the 2nd curtain as i selected in the menu, but it keep firing on the 1st curtain !! I am using canon EOS R6, I thought the issue was from my camera but i took off the profoto and used Godox V1 and everything work fine like i want, it firs the flash before the 2nd curtain close, any idea what is going wrong my expensive profoto product why it fire with 1st curtain and not 2nd curtain like i selected !?
Really cool images, Seth!
Thank you so much!
I watched the profoto videos on the light and didn't really get what made this one different. KNEW Seth was gonna make a video and explain it better and behold, this absolutely makes it clear why this thing is cool. Maybe one day I'll be able to afford one or two XD
Appreciate the faith kid thank you so much! Don’t worry bout what you can afford just go shoot !
Seth, I love your style. You take something that actually is quite involved and by explaining what you're doing and why, make it easy to understand. My brain is buzzing. There are so many things you covered in that 12min that can be used in so many different ways. I gotta do some shoots. Awesome!
That means a lot thank you so much. Glad you got so much out of it
It is an evolution of the profoto system. Another option would be you could have your assistant with the phone/ipad and you could instruct them to make the needed changes. Now they do it on a phone/ipad instead of walking over to packs saving a few minutes here and there on a shoot add up.
thats very true I didnt even think of that
A great video! I really love the way you show us how to use the flash and you got a great result.
Seth, I have a question. I'm a wedding photographer and for an indoor reception, the first dance and the cake cutting, I use a speedlight on my camera but since I shoot at a fast pace, the flash has to be able to recycle quick and as far as I know, there are only two flashes that meet my requirement: Profoto A1/X and Nikon SB 5000.
I have the SB5000 and I'm using it with a battery power pack( 12 AAs) and it lasts almost all day. So my question is , how long the A1 battery last? Some reviewers say,it lasts all days and others say,it doesn't last long and if you're not using the flash during the shoot, it drains the battery quickly.
Another question is, I'm getting an used one but some reviewers say that over time, the flash head became loose and it would not hold the same angle anymore. What is your experience?
I really appreciate your feedback. Thank you!
Well I used to shoot all sb-910 like 6 of them at a time with the Sd-9 battery packs. And I can confidently say the A1X -A10 speedlights have lasted longer for me but also depends on how you’re using them. Full power? Hammering down shots? It’s all a factor. The fact that I don’t have to carry 12 batteries PER LIGHT and possibly huge chargers for them is an enormous plus and money saver in the long run. Also keeps my batteries consistent as I only worry about the single lithium batteries health not 12 random AA.. as far as the tube. I’ve have the original A1 the A1x abd now the A10s. I own 7 total… I beat the hell out of them… drops all over the place etc. never had the heads be unstable …but I will say the original A1 head was def too loose for my liking and thus we have the new head on the A1x and A10. I wouldn’t even go for an A1 now unless it was super cheap. I’ve demoted my last one to being my on camera trigger but it’s still a great light
I'm liking that app interface, it looks simple and easy to figure out. I'm also liking the magnetic dome diffuser. I've had my plastic one fall off constantly during many events so that would be very convenient. Also great shots.
the dome is my fave.. i slip gels in there like a holder and never have an issue with it popping off
Awesome content. I couldn't see how the back light would work with the dark color filter until I saw the results. Wow!
Thank you so much!
Exactly. I have a lot of gels and a brown color is not in the mix...yet! Chocolate does sound a lot better than something like mud or dirt!
Oh snaps! This is why you told us to tube in because of a new product surprise on Twitch! I like what I see
😜
I can see why this is a great leap forward for light control for those in the Profoto eco system. My only concern is their ability to keep up with IOS updates and how quickly phones evolve. I would imagine that Profoto is committed to keeping on top of that though. Hey, Adorama, Please bring back Rewind! We miss seeing Seth bring us the photo industry news!
well the app has been around quite a awhile now the profoto B10 used it from launch back in 2018 so seems its been keeping up pretty well (working on bringing back rewind)
The guys at Profoto are quick as weasels to update, so there's no risk.
Bluetooth as a trigger would be da bomb! Lets hope someone somewhere hears you. Maybe, at that point, we get past the brand gap and can trigger any flash with the same BT. Great video, sir. Always interesting to see how people approach different lighting setups. Can't get enough of that.
Thanks so much Chris hope you’re well! (Idk if we’ll see a cross over on brands I think they’ll have to make a deal with the camera brands to have on board strobe menus. So maybe it’ll be profoto getting to that integration first 🤷♂️ just like pocket wizard was built into quantum strobes etc)
Great BTS vid! Do you see with the evolution from the A1 to A1x and now the A10 that the magnets have a stronger hold on the modifiers??
I saw a difference from the A1 to the A1X In regard to the magnets (and the head tension over all). And they carried that through to this A10
Super cool
Seth the master!
Very interesting. Couldn't you make the same adjustments on the A10 from the A1 on your camera? How does the Profoto App advance that?
Dan Browning triggers from all systems even in camera speedlights don’t allow for changing groups channels. I even show you how I zoom the head from it. This gives you the entire interface of the lights menus/controls
@@LastXwitness Thank you.
🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍
YOUarStudio 🙏🖤
Love the "Little Nightmares" t-shirt. Very underrated game.
Love this game I jumped down that lore rabbit hole pretty hard can’t wait for the second one coming in February
Awesome
🙏
very nice,can you tell me what lens you use for that please
Tony Hahn Nikon 24-120mm f4 www.adorama.com/nk24120u.html
willing to learn. Unless you already understand setups, then I gues sit's gonna be easier, but as a classically trained pianist I was blown
Hey Seth
What did you use to attach the flash to the arm
Hey Karl. It’s just a threaded cold shoe
@@LastXwitness perfect
Thank you for all that you do.
I am in the process of changing over my lights and i am still on the edge
leaning towards profoto but I am also thinking Broncolor
I have a Sony flashgun, will the a10 work in sync with it wirelessly?
Well done, I like 🙂
RON!!!!! Where you been ? Hope you’re well
missing you guys Brother. I've been working on some projects, check out my website, would love your feedback🙂. www.ronlouisphotos.com you know how much I value your opinion
Great presentation and demonstration Seth Miranda! Oh wow, great features this product has. I liked a lot the effect of the Brown Gel on the background. By the way this Speed light can also be trigered by a Smartphone, meaning you can shoot using the flash sync to the phone right? Thanks ADORAMA for having great professionals on your channel teaching us more about all the great products you guys offer!
yep you can totally use it as a flash for your phone I don't think its TTL ready with your phone just yet but I hear that's coming very very soon
Thank you.
Thank you for watching!
I really would love to know how this flash swivels. I do a lot of on camera bouncing & have been spoiled by my quick bounce swivel tech in Sony HVL-F60RM (just updated to the v2 model) . Any chance this can fully swivel & rotate for shooting vertically etc?
So basically the value of my A1Xs I just purchased just dropped $200, and bluetooth added to the new model. Great
Looks good and a nice big bright display, hey i am a very partially sighted tog. Another lot of goodies to add to my when I win some money list
theres a lot of applications and can never hurt to add accessibility
@@LastXwitness yep and especially as some flash manufacturers seem to like the blue lcd screens that are really hard to see.
Now i just need a pullout screen that goes to at least 30 inch and I can do tethered shoots without hiring a Sherpa to carry my stuff
Curious about the range of if the Bluetooth. How far away before losing functionality?
hi I just bought a profoto A10 and for any reason stop flashing everything looks just fine but the only problem am having is that is not flashing on the camera and of camera either way no flashing at all. can you help me please?
I guess you have solved it? It happened to me when I had set my camera to silent/electronic shutter in which mode it cannot trigger flash.
can you not run the a1 as a command and control the other lights through that?
You absolutely can. In every video and demo I do you can see it as a commander. But like all triggers you don’t have complete control over things like channels groups zoom etc like I show in this video.. you literally have every single menu and feature right there through the app.. modeling light brightness..all of it
This A10 seems good for even photography and such. id definitely buy one sept my wallet aint gangsta like that. I can get a Godox V1 for like $200 so... yeah.
What tethering platform do you use?
Erick Madrid CaptureOne
How is the key light fired? There is no Air Control on the camera. Did I miss something?
The on camera speedlight is also a remote trigger
@@LastXwitness Thank you very much for the hint. I will try it out as well. I like your setting very much. Regards from Switzerland
Hi Seth,
I really enjoyed the style of your video. You introduced a new product but without concentrating on 'marketing' and mindless specs, that people can pick-up from the internet. Specifically, you put the features in the context of a specific photoshoot, which was very informative and also the entire point of using kit.
This is a lot more informative compared to videos that compare, based on the presenters opinion, this piece of kit versus that piece of kit.
Great video and informative contribution.
Thank you
castagiantshadow.co
I really appreciate that thank you so much. I think experience and actual application will always take priority over just some opinions over a spec sheet so means a lot for you to see that and I am very glad you got so much out of this video 🙏
Cool T
thanks!
Tour de force tutorial on the this amazing speedlight
thank you !
I’m totally sold on the phone integration. You are already holding a camera and balancing and a laptop and stands light etc. to have another device is just a pain.
But i guess its good if you cant get to the light.
It seems a bit of a marketing bump to say that you can use your phone. I nean he was right by the light so could of just done it on the light itself
Is there any color temperature differences between A10 and B10? I saw that in a Profoto live stream. Thanks 🙏
To be honest I don’t see much difference and it’s one of the reasons I went all in all my lights match when I used to mix in other brand Speedlights as fills I would notice a lot of blue temperature light coming into play always threw on 1/8-1/4 cto gels to stay safe and not drive myself crazy
Why dont you just put all that Bluetooth functionality into the controller on your camera instead of having to go to your phone?
Paul Sophocleous maybe that’s the next step an updated trigger theyve had the same one forever guess we’ll have to wait and see
These "socially distant" videos are kinda funny nowadays, since the people at NIH have recently admitted that the 6' rule had no scientific basis and was an idea just pulled out of someone's butt.
Looks like the Godox V-1.
Or... the V1 looks like a profoto A1...as that was introduced first way before and this is the 3rd evolution of that model
Ridiculously expensive!
talk to much saying something over and over
