Reliable, robust, and built to last, the B30 Bi-Color LED Monolight from Profoto offers a compact and portable lighting fixture with exceptional performance capabilities and brightness options. Designed to support on-location photographers in split-second moments, the strobe combines effortless, easy-to-use controls and professional-grade speed to accommodate fast-paced shooting environments. Producing an output of 1700 lux at 3.3' with its bare bulb, and an illuminated output of 8500 lux at 3.3' with a separately available OCF Magnum, the B30 pairs well with Profoto's accessories for ample lighting options. The bi-color fixture features a 2800-7000K color temperature range and a high 94 CRI score, all ensuring that the strobe produces replicable daylight or tungsten-colored light each time.
The B30's quick 0.01 to 2.1 second recycling time range syncs with speedy shutter speeds up to 1/38,100 of a second in freeze mode for uninterrupted shooting. Crafted to ensure full creative control, the 500W B30 features an 11-stop power range and a 40W modeling lamp, allowing for easy setup and capture of precise shots. With three flash modes, including Boost, Eco, and Freeze, this monolight illuminates quickly moving scenes with its built-in AirX connectivity and a separately available Profoto remote. The incorporated Profoto OCF mount, paired with its rubberized grip design, ensures the strobe can securely hold any of the brand's 120 lighting modifiers to sculpt and precisely refine light output. For additional versatility, the B30 includes an OCF stand adapter, protection cap, B-series battery and charger, a C7 power cable, and an OCF case for a simple transportation option.
