Overview of the Profoto D2 Air TTL Flash System which builds on the workshop induction which students should attend prior to booking and using the flash studio.
Good Afternoon. I am Marianne I just watched this video and found it extremely helpful. I am considering using the profoto D2 and there are NOT many videos for how to use it. If you could answer 1 question I have I'd really appreciate it. You mentioned the strobe can be used with the remote trigger. We set the remote to MANUAL or TTL but what about the strobe itself - ON THE STROBE do we have to indicate somewhere if we are using it in MANUAL or TTL mode? I am used to working with speedlights and on the speedlight you always indicate whether you are using MANUAL or TTL mode so is this the case with the profoto D2 as well? Hope you can clarify this issue for me. Thanks so much, Marianne
Hello Marianne, thanks for your comment. When using the D2 Air you can select either Manual or TTL from the Air Remote only, the D2 heads will pick this up automatically and there's no need to set this on the head. I hope this helps.
The D2 has a modelling light, which is both continuous and adjustable but I wouldn't recommend using it for video, there are lots on continuous lighting options out there that offer adjustments in brightness and colour temperature.

Can this light be constant, meaning for video filming? Thanks

@@WSAPhoto Thank you. What would you recommend for continuous light?
