Profoto Air Remote

Unlike the Air Remote TTL-C (for Canon) and the Air Remote TTL-N (for Nikon), the Air Remote does not provide TTL functionality. But the sensation of shooting without cords and without restraints is the same.

The impressive operating range of 300 m (1,000 ft) is also the same.

Note that the Air Remote uses the world’s fastest system for remote radio sync and control, allowing you to shoot with less delay and higher reliability.

Key Features:

• The world’s fastest system for remote radio sync and control, fast enough to match a sync cable
• Unbeaten operating range of 300 m/1,000 ft.
• Open frequency band (2.4 GHz)
• Approved for worldwide use
• Small and handy
• Can be used to sync any flash brand
• Can be used as remote shutter release for most cameras
• Can be used as remote control for Profoto flashes with Air built-in

The Profoto Air Remote Transceiver is a proprietary radio slave transceiver designed to work with the Pro-8a 1200 and 2400W/s power packs as well as the D1 Air series of monoheads. This transceiver can control an unlimited number of power packs and heads on eight channels. It can mount to your camera's hot shoe, or sync to your flash terminal for firing.

Operating from two AAA batteries, at a frequency of 2.4GHz, the Air Sync has a range of 1000' (300 m). It can sync up to 1/250 second with a focal plane shutter camera, and 1/500 second with a leaf shutter camera. Its triggering speed is over 100 fps.

The Air Remote can also be used in pairs or in conjunction with the Profoto Air Sync (one on camera and one on flash) to trigger flash units without built-in Air technology.
