and about Profoto ComPact Plus 600 Special profoto

Profoto ComPact Plus 600 Special [CPPS] 600 Ws Overview

Convenient, economical and easy to set-up with modular light shaping tools. For the pro or photo enthusiast, Profoto ComPact units offer the simplest and most economical way to get the best quality of light with the Profoto modular system of light shaping tools.

The ComPact makes fine control of individual lights easy. They are ultimately simple, convenient, versatile, and more economical than generator plus head units. As a main light, they are usually used with an umbrella or other diffusion-type light shaping tool, such as the Profoto Softlight Reflector, often near full power. At lower settings, they can be placed close to the subject, to provide character lighting in portrait photography.

ComPact units have generator and fan cooled flash head built into one ?compact? unit, sometimes referred to as a ?monobloc.? They share the same quality of light as all other Profoto flash heads, and accept the same complete system of Profoto light shaping tools for Pro Acute heads as well as Pro 6 and Pro 7.

Profoto ComPact units provide very high light output, fast recycling, and short flash durations for their size. Efficient fan cooled design assures continuous heavy duty performance where other self contained units fail.

On location or in the studio, they are perfect for instant set-up and fast break-down. They are the ideal choice when the situation calls for the minimum amount of fuss and cables, such as with corporate portraits or industrial locations. With their light weight, small dimensions, and multi-voltage capability, one or several can be easily packed for travel, whether going alone, or with a crew. Profoto ComPact units are also perfect to supplement generator set-ups in the studio or on the road.

A removable Voltage Key Card allows instant adjustment of the line voltage anywhere in the world. Just switch power cables and modeling lamps.

Both 300Ws and 600Ws ComPacts can be selected in a ?special? version with a 150W (300Ws unit) or 250W (600Ws unit) halogen modeling lamp and frosted glass cover; or economical version with 100W tungsten modeling lamp. The ComPactPlus 1200 is supplied with a 500 watt modeling light.

Wich equipment is better Profoto or Elinchrom?
