Profoto OCF Zoom Reflector

Introducing the Profoto OCF Zoom Reflector

The Profoto OCF Zoom Reflector is a versatile light‑modifying accessory designed to work seamlessly with Profoto’s flagship studio strobes and speedlights. Whether you’re shooting portraits, product photography, or event coverage, this reflector offers precise control over the direction and intensity of reflected light.

Key Features & Design Highlights

• Zoomable Reflector Head: The core innovation is its adjustable reflector head. By rotating the head, you can direct reflected light at a wide range of angles without moving the entire unit. This gives photographers the freedom to shape highlights and fill shadows on the fly.
• Compact 15 cm Diameter: With a diameter of just 15 centimetres, the OCF Zoom Reflector is lightweight yet robust enough for studio use. Its compact size makes it easy to mount on stands or attach directly to flash heads.
• High‑Quality Reflective Surface: The reflector’s surface is engineered from a premium aluminium alloy with a matte finish that reduces glare while maintaining consistent light diffusion. This ensures that reflected light remains soft and natural, even when used at close distances.
• Integrated Softbox Compatibility: Many photographers pair the OCF Zoom Reflector with a softbox to create a combined “softbox + reflector” setup. The reflector’s design accommodates standard softbox brackets, allowing for quick transitions between pure reflection and diffusion modes.
• Sturdy Mounting System: Equipped with a secure mounting plate, the reflector can be attached to Profoto’s B1, B1X, B2, D1, or D2 light units. The mounting interface is designed for quick release, enabling rapid reconfiguration during shoots.
• Durable Construction: Built with a reinforced aluminium frame and protective rubberized edges, the reflector withstands frequent handling and transport without compromising performance.

Compatibility & Usage Scenarios

The OCF Zoom Reflector is specifically engineered for Profoto’s B1, B1X, B2, D1, and D2 lighting systems. Its mounting plate aligns with the standard attachment points on these units, ensuring a secure fit.

• Portrait Photography: Position the reflector to bounce light onto the subject’s cheekbones or hairline, creating flattering highlights while maintaining natural skin tones.
• Product Photography: Use the reflector to fill in shadows on glossy surfaces, reducing harsh contrasts and revealing fine details.
• Event & Live Coverage: The quick‑adjustment feature allows photographers to adapt lighting on the spot, making it ideal for dynamic environments where lighting conditions change rapidly.

Installation & Setup Guide

1. Mounting: Align the reflector’s mounting plate with the attachment point on your Profoto light unit. Secure it using the provided screws or quick‑release mechanism.
2. Positioning: Rotate the reflector head to the desired angle. The adjustable arm allows you to direct reflected light precisely where needed.
3. Softbox Integration (Optional): If using a softbox, attach it to the same mounting plate. The reflector’s design ensures that both accessories can coexist without interference.
4. Fine‑Tuning: Adjust the distance between the light source and the reflector to control the intensity of reflected light. Closer proximity yields brighter reflections; farther distances produce softer, more diffused highlights.
