Overview

The Profoto A2 Monolight bridges the gap between portable speedlights and full-sized studio strobes, delivering 100Ws of power in a form factor small enough for one-handed operation. Its 10-stop power range, adjustable in precise 1/10-stop increments, gives photographers fine-grained control over exposure, while a flash duration as short as 1/26,000 second makes it capable of freezing fast action with minimal motion blur. The built-in reflector and lens produce a natural light spread with smooth fall-off straight out of the box, and the magnetic Clic mount lets you snap on softboxes, gels, grids, and other Profoto Clic accessories in seconds without tools or adapters.

Wireless operation is handled through Profoto's AirX system, which integrates with compatible transmitters and the Profoto Control smartphone app for remote power adjustments and configuration. The A2 maintains a consistent color temperature of 5800K (±100K) across its power range, ensuring reliable color from shot to shot. Fan cooling helps sustain performance during longer sessions, and the integrated LED modeling light provides a continuous preview of your lighting setup. With a recycle time ranging from 0.1 to 1.6 seconds and approximately 400 full-power flashes per charge, the A2 is built to keep up with fast-paced editorial, portrait, and event shooting on location.
