Profoto A1 - Detailed Field Review. Better be late than Never :-)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- Profoto is one of the most prominent Lighting companies in the world. And Profoto A1 is their camera mounted flash which can also function as an OCF. It is a very well made flash with amazing accuracy. Though a bit late in the day, we at Pixel Viilage got the opportunity to work with the flash and put it thru it's paces. Though a bit long, I am certain that you will enjoy this video as much as we did while making it.

Great video. I just purchased my first A1X , and can say, there is no comparison in the build quality and quality of light as compared to the cheaper, similar flash made another manufacturer, I was not expecting that. The A1X is not a purchase, it’s an investment in my business and worth every penny.
The blue background in broad daylight is absolute science. Well done.
Things looking so easy , i think it wasn’t. It comes from experience. Truly masterclass sir 👌🏽
Apart from product i've learnt much about lighting and workflow, thank you Sir...
Sir you are great
The way I learnt a photography from your videos I had never learnt from any one
Thanks 🙏
Nice review. I don't own one Profoto light yet, but I have rented them, and that's one other plus about the Profoto line worth mentioning.. They are available for rent at photo rental houses in major cities around the world. And whether you own one or two lights and need another one or two for a shoot, you can rent them and they will work seamlessly with all other Profoto lights and gear. And if you don't own any you can rent just about any Profoto light made as well as light modifiers.
Fantastic video & demonstrations
Wow I got more details of all aspects in photoshoot.
I starts my mobile photography very detailed with your OnePlus 3 with few lens video...
After seen my mobile gallery the guy who working with me gave his DSLR n lenses to shoot his sons first birthday I was feeling like in heaven someone's believes me more then I have...... Thanks man yr are my master
Thank you fo the words. 😊🙏

Waooohhh...every photographer must need this for evovle of photography thnq sir for ur detailed xplntion about this ..lv u sir
thank you :)
I am a big fan of your channel. There is a unique style in your creations. In fact I always check for your new video whenever I open RUclips app. This video was very helpful for me to understand how the light plays it's role in photography rather than the product specifications. Its a different way of presenting a product without the direct presentation. Thank you for your wonderful creations.. Keep going on..
It's always something classy, whether be it a car or any product you portray. Respect your way of approach. 👌🏿
Thank you.😊
Whaaa...
What a quality of video
What a knowledge of language
We love you sir

Everything is this was so useful for a beginner photographer to understand how light in the frame works! After the video finished i realised it was 25 mins long video i saw, I got so indulged in it that I felt it wad a 4 or 5 mins video. ♥ awesome content!! Learn Earn and Share
Maaan... 🙏😃
Always enjoy watching your high quality videos with lots of knowledge about photography.
🙏🙏🙏
I still have my Profoto Acute B2 600 airS from 201, and still works and no issue whatsoever. No plans of selling it, i will keep it till it dies.
Great! They make some amazing lights. They rarely die on you! Cheers... 😀👍
Great video sir, as always i also liked the cinematography of over all video.
That ' buy for now ' ending...Love it
Thank you for this particular. I don't think I'll be able to afford an A1 anytime soon but will definitely try the angles and settings for the next shoot using flashes, and then maybe I'll rent an A1 later.
This should be more of a flash tutorial.. definitely profoto if you have the dough ;) Great video
I really like your presentation and storytelling. Excellent. Mind you, Ws is not plural of Watt, but short for another unit called Watt.seconds. To prevent this confusion, some manufacturers replace Ws by J as they are the same. Ws is like kWh a unit of energy consumption. Here it says nothing about light output as it just reports energy consumed in one flash. Watt as energy of potential power is defined as W=Ws/s. Thus, 76 Ws in 1/1000 second gives 76 / 1/1000 = 76000 Watt. Which explains why a flash of 76 Ws is so much more powerful than a lamp of 76 W. For a photographer, for comparison, we need to look at a reference flash angle of e.g. compared to a 35mm FF lens, the ISO and matching guide number. Profoto gives the guide number for their studio kit for a specific reflector which is a good indication. You will see that the difference between a 1000 Ws studio flash and a 76 Ws speedlight actually is a couple F-stops only. Or, with two speedlights in one softbox, sufficient Amps for speedy repeat flashes, you have a lot of options compared to a high powered (portable) studio flash.
Thank you Sir... For your explanation. Just learner something important 🙏👍😊

Great video...... I can't remember how half an hour went on while watching the video......this is a premium segment product.....happy with Godox🥰 .....it would be great if you make more videos on consumer friendly products that fit the budget of average middle class indian user.....
by the way all ways love your videos Radhakrishnan Sir

Thank you 😊🙏
wow very beautiful... wow love pixel village...... ♥♥♥♥
Seriously amazing quality content. Sure the flashes helped but the quality came from an outstanding team and photographer
Really great stuff sir. I own two A1s and they are awesome lights. The 75ws is misleading IMO. Previously, I used Godox ad200s (also very good lights) and my A1 (full zoom) at full power measured the same as my ad200 (w round head) at full power, I was very surprised. If you compare the A1 to Godox it seems incredibly expensive but if you compare it to a flagship Nikon or Canon it’s not that bad. The A1 comes with three very useful modifiers, a modeling light, a great battery and awesome recycle speed. By the time you add three modifiers to a SB-5000 (that can’t radio trigger other lights) I believe you would be close to the A1 price.
Profoto A1 - $1000
Ad200 - $300
The key in comparing the power of the A1 to the AD200 is the 'full zoom' - if you create equal light spreads you will see the difference in power. On the other hand if you add a Magmod Magbeam fresnel to the AD 200 you will see a huge increase in 'apparent' power. Light spreads into a volume- the smaller the volume you contain it in the brighter the light will be...
Nice skill and also very very professional..I loved channel
Sir your championship proved again

A fan from Pimpri...
Well produced video and photos! I'd love to see some comparisons though ... I rented the A1 awhile back and found it quite under powered in HSS compared to my Sb5000. So I stayed with my Nikon flashes.
Fan from Bangalore
Sir. Vanakkam. Very nice Video. very useful one for me. Thanking you sir.
Love your work and explanations in your videos, The Profoto A1 is a beast. Keep teaching and inspiring us.
🙏
1000$ ! Wow ! That's like a godox ad600 and a ad200 !!!
Extremely disappointed with Profoto for never releasing an A1 version for the Sony platform. They said 2018 with the Nikon & Canon versions, that became summer of 2018 and then just *in 2018* and well, we are in March of 2019.
I work at a camera store and our rental versions of the A1 are constantly being sent in for service and again, NO SONY model available. My guess is they are waiting for the version 2 and work out the bugs, cause there are too many.
Appreciate your video and your creativity, keep up the great work and maybe, just MAYBE, Profoto will one day release a version for arguably THE MOST WANTED camera platform, Sony.
Yes... That's correct. I have copied your message to my contacts in Profoto and Sony India. Thank you for your comment 🙏🙏🙏
The Profoto A1X and the Connect thing are now available for Sony too... 😉👍
wow very use full video
You inspire me a lot
Sir are you moving to mirror less? Pl say why not and why should?
Wow! Classic black w124
wow!
Hahaha! Looks like freaking Profoto, Elinchrom and Broncolor are finally struggling LOL Screw them! They are way too expensive and offer nothing new these days. Thank you Godox for making professional photography fun and affordable again!
You have very unique voice sir like Amitji. Very strong and powerful.
Thank you 🙏😊
My biggest pet peeves after buying this flash are the bounce card is basically useless. It can't stay on the darn flash. It always falls off and causes me to panic to pick it up. Had it almost stepped on at numerous events. I wish the magnet system was as robust as the Magmod setup. I think the Profoto aggressive marketing campaign was a huge success as a bunch of my friends went out and bought these. If you are in the Profoto eco-system already it is not a bad idea, but the amount of money for the flash plus the amount of money for the magnetic accessories that barely stay on the flash when stacked leave me with a bitter taste in my mouth. The battery life also seems to be a lot shorter in the field than the advertised number of flashes however I did not scientifically test this
Thanks for sharing that. The magnet strength is something I haven't heard others talk about. Makes me wonder about the godox v1 too.
Sir you're right they're the best one. But the only hitch is it is too costly. And the wedding photographers do not take such risks of buying too much costly flash. So sir can you make another video for a budget best flash. Please sir
Simple! If you want a cheaper round head flash, with the same power, better battery life, and the same functionality, get the godox v1,! This is really only a flash people in the profoto system would buy!
Thank u chetta giving a valuable information for photography and ur way of teaching is vera level
Ningala marana massssssanu.....

Hello Sir
would you please teach us about "COLOUR THEORY" in photography and about most popular colour combination like "ORRANGE&BLACK" "GREEN AND RED" etc......
It will be nice if talk also about like about "split complementary" "complementary" "analogues" "triadic"
Hope a knowledge from you sir Thank you
Sir I want to buy mirror less. Confused between Nikon d750 or d850. Pls. Suggest. I am big fan of u. You can say if there are options other than these two.
neither d750 nor d850 are "mirrorless" both are dslr's. Nikon has Z6 or Z7 in the mirrorless segment. Still my personal suggestion, don't buy nikon mirrorless, get a sony instead.

😊🙏
i hav been to their workshop in blore. even godox is going to launch their round head flash in march right. it looks similar like profoto A1. they launched in photokina
Respected Sir, Your Equipment Review and Recommendations are top-notch, without a doubt. But there are a lot of viewers of your channel, like me, who just trying their hands on Photography. Now, while Shooting with The Best Camera and Equipment in the Market sound very tempting, but with saving pocket money and occasional gift from parents restricts our budget, but not our spirits. So, I'd request you, if possible, please create a few 'Gear Recommendation' videos for things which are bang for the Buck, We'd really appreciate that. Thanks in advance...
Nice, but I happy with Godox AD400Pro
We need Pixelvillage's review on PROFOTO B10 ...

CaptureOne Pro. 🙏

Sir-G June-ൽ കണ്ടു സൂപ്പർ..!
i have nikon d5600 it is good or not ? please give me review on this or make 1 video on nikon d5600 for me please i want to know thatwhat is my cam
i want info about nikon d5600 with your your style and your view
Very confortable car.. Great video a lot of learn. Nice this Boteco, but is not like here in Brasil. This is more expensive, here they are cheaper the name "Boteco". This products are very expensive to beginner photographers here.
Yes Patrick... I am aware. This restaurant is co-owned by a Brazilian Chef. He told me the real meaning and ambience of a 'real' Boteco. Thank you for your comments. 🙏🙏🙏
Nice broll sir
Thank you 😊
The models are young and attractive. They probably had a 'honeymoon' after the shoot. Get jiggy with it! How many 3x as powerful Godox AD200's can you buy for the price of just one Profoto A1? I can't see how they would sell ANY of these overpriced, patent-stealing flashes. I bet MagMod is fuming when they talk to their lawyers.
Sir you look like Sanjay leela Bhansali☺☺☺
Hi, I'm a hobbyist photographer and I plan on doing it professionally in the near future. I currently shoot natural light and sometimes shoot with ocf godox speedlight with umbrella, the setup was cheap and I was happy with the results for sometime and now I want to improve lighting techniques and I want to move into using softboxes, I use the godox trigger and speedlight, and when I tried to find light modifiers I came across the bowens mount and elinchrome mount, is there any one advantage over the other in ease of use or number of modifiers available in both the mount etc is my question, which one should I go for? I'm planning to upgrade to godox ad 400pro in the future So I want the light modifiers to be compatible with the speedlight as well as the strobe, please guide me
your videos are amazingly helpful. I am your subscriber now. I have a one quick question ... from where I can buy this Profoto A1 lights in delhi. who is the genuine authorised seller ?
You can speak to Ankit Shukla of Srishti Digital at 9911443999. They handle ProFoto officially in India. He will help you with the purchase. 👍
Really amazing video. I liked the way u did the shoot felt amazing art of knowledge u hve
Big thumbs up for 👍📸👍😍
thank you
I knw ur a nikon favorite
Can u do anything shoot on Canon
ഇങ്ങള് പുലി ആണ് ട്ടോ😎😍😘
Sir please make a video about taking sharp photos. Most of us face focusing problems, confuse about focusing points, confuse about aperture value as a result the picture become blurry.
No better than the godox v1, save yourselves a lot of money!
Woooow... :)
😊🙏
Hello, nice video. Did u tried using godox ad200 ? :) . Try Shooting the same
I love you sir
The Dashing Grandpa
I was eager to see the output of the technique than the flash. It's too over priced .. but your technique was good, will implement it.
Please make a video on "career in photography and how a one can become successful at that"
Yes i too want to know the scopes in professional photography
You can make more money by working at Walmart instead of dreaming being a pro photographer.
which software are you using in the video
Time to upgrade that tank
Great sir, but it is too costly....market rate is going low day by day..its hard to maintain the studio cost....so pls make video by mid range products
Thank you😊
