Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

👎 Cons

  • The description "Clear Glass Cover Continuous Light" is somewhat ambiguous, as Profoto is primarily known for flash heads, not solely continuous lights.
  • Specific material composition beyond "Clear Glass" is not detailed, which could be relevant for heat resistance or durability.
  • As a single accessory, it only provides a cover, not a full light modifier or performance enhancement.
  • Requires ensuring correct fitment for older or niche Profoto heads, even with the "Works With All Profoto Heads" claim.
  • The function is purely protective, without influencing the color temperature or diffusion of the light output.
