Profoto L1600D Kit

Keeping the most striking traits of the previous L1600D, Profoto made some changes and relevant improvements to the L1600D's light head, which includes: a reinforced front plate, an internal reflector for optimized optical performance, better Bowens S-mount fitting and locking pin, as well as a heavy-duty front tube that also enables improved optical performance. Additionally, this light has no heat or cooldown time and was developed to be more energy efficient and reduce power consumption, making this Profoto's first LED flash mode available with zero recycle time for hybrid workflows and lighting comfort in photoshoots.

The L1600D's characteristics stand out in the Profoto Mono-LED category as a 1600W LED designed replace a traditional 1.8K HMI. Now, 25.8 lb may seem heavy for a compact light, but when you remember that it doesn't require a ballast and how much light you'll get from it when compared to similar fixtures, the weight is justifiable. The L1600D outputs up to 12,500 lux with its included MaxiZoom reflector, and can reach an impressive 45,000 lux when using the optional Boost reflector, both within a considerable distance of 16.4'. By expanding the L1600D's output, the optional Boost reflector offers significantly increased brightness for a long throw of light.

Delivering the lighting quality that Profoto is known for, the L1600D has the advantages and conveniences of a powerful continuous light source. Intended for use in various environments, this 1600W point-source LED fixture will give you accurate colors, and most importantly, exceptional flicker-free brightness at any frame rate. Profoto's unique Active HydroCTech liquid cooling system handles heat from the LED and its power electronics, ensuring longevity and silent operation.

Developed to suit both video and stills, expect the reliability and precision from Profoto's trusted standard in professional lighting with the L1600D's high CRI 95, TLCI 97, and SSI 74 ratings as indicators of superior performance and accuracy in color rendering—meaning natural skin tones. With a fixed 5600K CCT, light control is provided by precise 0.1 to 100% dimming without introducing flicker. 16-bit dimming down to 0.1% ensures precise control and smooth transitions. Linear, Exponential, Logarithmic, and S dimming curves make sure color rendering is as accurate as possible regardless of your chosen intensity.
