Profoto 1200 Work Light User Manual


 
Thanks for showing us your confidence by investing in an Acute2 system. For more than
three decades we have sought the perfect light. What pushes us is the conviction that we can
offer even the most demanding photographer yet better tools.
Before our products are shipped we have them pass an extensive and strict testing pro-
gram. We check that they pass the quality and capacity levels the most demanding photog-
raphers require. For this reason our flash equipment is the standard in most rental studios
in New York and Tokyo and the most rented flash all over the world. The system consists
of a variety of generators built and designed to meet the demands of the most demanding
photographers on this planet. Yet the most important thing is the light you create and it is
then essential that the system offers freedom to create your own light. The Acute2 heads in
particular offer you this possibility . The light source, both the flash tube and the modelling
light, is placed high and free in the flash head. This makes it easier for you to adjust the light
and use your creativity. The reflectors are moveable and lock easily into place. By moving
the position of the reflector you can get a higher or lower concentration of light in the center
or more of a flood light. This is not new, of course. Our flash heads have always been designed
that way. What is new, however, is our new glass cover, which is designed to increase preci-
sion. The Acute2 head and the Acute2 twin are supplied with a frosted and UV-coated cover
glass, which together with the flash tube, produce a colour temperature adapted to daylight
colour film. There are glass covers with varying filtration, for greater diversity.
The whole Acute2 system is modular. Every single reflector and accessory creates its
special light and the unique Profoto focusing system offers you a possibility to create your
own light with only a few different reflectors.
Thanks!
