The On-Location Speedlight Challenge
Photographers shooting on-location often face a frustrating challenge: speedlights lack the softbox compatibility that studio strobes offer, limiting light control and forcing compromises on light quality.
Universal Solution for Speedlight Integration
The Profoto RFi Speedlight Speed Ring transforms any speedlight into a softbox-compatible light source. This universal adapter mounts directly to Profoto RFi softboxes, accepting speedlights from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Godox, and virtually any shoe-mount flash brand. You can mount one or two speedlights simultaneously, doubling output without adding bulk.
