The Acute B2 is Profoto’s smallest flash generator but it still packs 600Ws of power over a 7 f-stop range and for those that love shooting wide open it can be dialled right down to 9Ws! The AcuteB flash head is smaller and lighter than the ProHeads but all of the Profoto accessories and light shapers are still compatible as the head diameter is the same.

The light weight of the flash head makes it perfect for an assistant to hold with an accessory handle or light pole.
