Overview

The Profoto 100504 RFi Speedring Adapter bridges the gap between Profoto's popular RFi softbox line and the widely used Bowens bayonet mount system. If you shoot with Bowens-compatible strobes from brands like Godox, Interfit, or Calumet but want to take advantage of Profoto's well-engineered light shaping tools, this adapter makes that possible without replacing your existing lights. The twist-lock bayonet mechanism provides a solid, rattle-free connection that holds up during long shoots and frequent repositioning.

Setup is streamlined by Profoto's color-coded rod system. Each softbox rod is marked with a color that corresponds to a matching socket on the speedring, so you can assemble any RFi modifier — whether square, rectangular, or octagonal — quickly and correctly every time. The adapter is built from durable metal and maintains a low profile, keeping your softbox close to the light source for efficient light output. For studios already invested in Bowens-mount equipment, this speedring is a practical way to access Profoto's modifier ecosystem without a full system changeover.

Key Features

Profoto RFi Softboxes are color coded to make assembly simple

Just match the colored rod with the appropriate color-coded hole on the Speed ring.

Whether you are using a square, octagonal or rectangular softbox, set up is quick and easy

Frequently Asked Questions

It fits studio strobes and monolights that use the Bowens or Calumet bayonet mount system.
No, this adapter is designed specifically for Profoto RFi softboxes. It will not fit older Profoto softbox models or third-party modifiers.
Each rod on the RFi softbox is color-coded to match a corresponding hole on the speedring. You simply insert each rod into its matching color, eliminating guesswork during setup.
No tools are needed. The adapter mounts directly onto a Bowens-compatible light head using the standard twist-lock bayonet mechanism, and the softbox rods slide into the ring by hand.
