Profoto Releases New Products For Studio and Remote Lighting Products

Profoto Introduces the New D4 4800Ws Studio Generator
for Perfect Digital and Analog Control
ELMSFORD, NY ? Profoto, the leader in studio and portable electronic flash systems, has introduced a new addition
to its D4 flash line ? D4 4800. With the addition of the D4 4800, Profoto is now offering a high power flash unit for
studio photographers.
This new Profoto generator is an excellent main light source for studios specializing in furniture, automobile and large
still life photography. Because of the extensive power adjustment range and high efficiency, the new D4 4800 is also
perfectly suited for bigger set-ups where just one flash generator can be used.
The D4 offers four fully asymmetric lamp outlets ? like having 4 generators in one. The entire 8 f-stop power range is
controlled in increments of 1/10 f-stop. Extremely high light output, coupled with color and color spectrum stability
from flash to flash gives the user high productivity and reliable results.
The extreme stability of the D4 results from a new hybrid flash technology that uses a combination of capacitor
groups, voltage regulation and advanced microprocessors to regulate and fine-tune the output. The result is a
generator with power variations of less than 1/100 of an f-stop.
The D4 family consists of 3 fully asymmetrical generators (1200, 2400 or 4800Ws). All come with an integrated USB
interface and the versatile "Profoto Studio Software" for optional remote control via computer.
The Profoto D4 is fully compatible with the entire line of Profoto light shaping accessories.

The unit also has integrated support for filters and masks.
Barn doors are available as an optional accessory.
