After PhotoShop World, I stayed in Vegas, which is home base for amazing athletes and performers, such as Manu, above. I did more experimentation with the Profoto B1 units, and made some more strides with the Nikon TTL version of the air remote. I’ll post more material in the next couple of weeks, but the B1 itself has been a wonderful light to play with. I know they are principally designed for location, but we took them into the studio and experimented in a very controlled way. Really enjoying the control of these lights, and the design. Battery life is excellent, and the air remotes are bang on dependable. Lots of room to move with these.
Have a great weekend everyone! More tk….
This light fits the concept perfectly, I really love this scattered highlights that define and separate the muscles so well.
Good photo Joe! I am looking forward to seeing what you will be posting in the near future with the Profoto B1 units. I will be in the market for more powerful strobes to compete with full-on sun later. For now I am using Nikon SB800 units, which are small but sometimes I find I am powering them all the way up when photographing in bright sun.
Have a great weekend!

I love t he fact that these units are self-sufficient and can be used in or out with all t he power advantages outside. What’s not to like? Price 🙁
It’s your vision is powerful, lights are serving your imegination
Stunning as always, Joe.
Hi Joe, amazing image as always. Really looking forward to seeing one of your extensive field tests with the B1’s. It’s going to be fascinating to see how you compare the self contained unit without the shared leads of the fantastic Elinchroms. It’s going to be a while before I can justify moving away from my SB900’s but I have no problem following your recommendation.
Thanks for the insight as always.

Sorry, I jumped into your blog and missed your post from August when you did a full field test of the B1’s. Great Joe. Cheers.
Great shot, looking forward to seeing more!
Very cool Shot! Congratulations
They do seem like amazing lights with great features. But for the price they are asking, I am wondering when you would choose one over a (or two) from their manual flash range.
Great shot
