The Pro-D3 is our first-ever industrial-grade powerhouse of a monolight, designed to work relentlessly in the most demanding high-volume production environments. 

With a flash capacity of 1250Ws and a recycling time as short as 0,01 sec, the Pro-D3 delivers frequency at speed for hours on end, making it optimal for high-volume shoots. At the same time, the three flash parameters resemble the flexibility of creative choice: for increased equipment lifetime and color consistency, run it in default flash mode (ECO); when in need of a little more power, toggle to Boost mode; to eliminate motion blur, thrive off the shortest flash duration to this day in Freeze mode. 

The Pro-D3 also features a very power-efficient LED-modeling light. It shines brighter than a 400-watt halogen lamp with only 15% of the power consumption. Beyond saving energy costs, this keeps light shapers cool and extends their lifetime. Additionally, the modeling light has a fixed daylight-balanced color temperature and spreads light like a flash, which gives an authentic representation of the light in the final shot.

Choose between full flash power or accent light; the 11 f-stop range, fine-tuned with 0.1 f-stop precision, provides nuances. For seamless synchronization between devices, the Pro-D3 is equipped with Profoto’s latest user interface and AirX technology, which gives way to a hassle-free workflow.

Customer Reviews (5.0 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Mia X. ★★★★★

The recycle time on this thing is unreal—barely a pause between full-power pops during a bridal shoot. Solid build too, it’s handled back-to-back jobs without a single hiccup.

Matthew Q. ★★★★★

The modeling light is incredibly bright for a monolight this size, and the built-in color consistency shot to shot has been flawless on our last two catalog shoots.

Olivia W. ★★★★★

The recycle time is incredibly fast, even when I'm firing at full power repeatedly during a shoot. I also appreciate the sturdy build, it feels solid and ready for heavy studio use. Glad to have this kind of reliability for my commercial work.
