Profoto heads are practical and elegantly simple. All Acute 2 and Acute heads accept the same modular light shaping tools. The Acute 2 modular flash head design features a circular, heavy duty, quartz flash tube and UV coated protection dome that surrounds both the flash tube and the 500W modeling light. It provides even, consistent illumination.
All lamphead cables feature Profoto special connectors for arc-proof performance. All heads are also supplied with a 5/8" stand adapter to mount the units to any standard light stand.
The modeling lights for this unit are readily available in a variety of voltages for use all over the world.
Acute 2 Heads produce a color temperature of 5400 °K. There are other optional domes that are more heavily coated, for a warming effect of 300 or 600° increments, for a color temperature of 5100 or 4800°, respectively. A power supply for this flash head is required.
A built-in tilt-control lever makes for easy angle adjustment.
It comes standard with a protective glass dome that surrounds the flashtubes for even illumination and an added margin of safety. There are also optional glass domes that come in a variey of coatings so that you have added control over the color temperature.
