I'm dismayed to have had 12x D2 1000w heads need to be sent back for repair due to failure. Some of these heads are 4 years old and some are less than 2 years old.
Quality and reliability isnt what it used to be.
It would be convenient to have a way to attach a lens to the front of a D-series or Pro head via a standard Profoto collar. This would provide the ability to focus the light into a very tight spot when needed, to help replicate the look of sunlight, for example.
The B1X is long overdue for an update. I can’t buy another in its current state. The price for the duo pack is DOUBLE today in comparison to when I bought it a few years ago.
To solve this, I would say its reasonable the old B1X should go back down to the more realistic and not insane price it used to have. The current price would probably be reasonable for the updated B1X.
B1X V2 - Main changes
1: 1000ws
2: The new air system
3: AC power options
4: If possible, strong led
This is what I’m waiting for. Got money saved up for new B1X. But I can’t convince myself to buy a new pair for double the price. For this we need something new and updated.
One monohead to rule them all. Same heavy duty form factor with the pro-quality back handle, knob, and stand spigot. 1000 w/s, and can be used with either a high capacity battery, or true AC power. All flash specs equal to or better than the current B1X or D2. This would be THE light for me.
