Lighting Accessories and Profoto's Interactive Images

by Skip Cohen

Not only is Profoto the manufacturer of the finest equipment in lighting, but their website is one of the most fun to visit. The Internet has given us the ability to be interactive with the products and companies we choose, and Profoto is making the most of it.

Check out the images below - with two different beauty dishes, a silver and a white. What's so great about the the Light Shaping Tools section of their website is your ability to review each of the eight tools above and see the impact it has on the final image. It's just a slide of the cursor on the screen and you're able to see the difference each accessory has on your images.

And, for those of you who keep telling people, "I'm a natural light specialist," give it a rest and start to learn how to create beautiful images no matter what light you're using. There's an incredible amount of great content on their site, before you even get to their blog, and it's all there to help you be a better artist.

Don't take my word for it - click on the accessory banner above and check out all the accessories for yourself. This is about Profoto's belief in education and helping you raise the bar well beyond the quality of images "Uncle Harry" could capture.

Finding a Profoto dealer is just a click away!
