The New Profoto Connect Pro Is Now Also Compatible with the Leica SL System

Wetzlar, January 17, 2023

For more than a century, Leica Camera AG has been manufacturing outstanding precision tools, and image quality has always been the focus of their development. The cooperation between Leica and Profoto concentrates on this as well. Profoto’s Connect Pro flash control is now also available for all SL2 and SL2-S cameras from the Leica SL system. As a result, photographers in particular gain full control to adjust the balance between ambient light and flash especially fast and precisely on set at any time.

The Profoto Connect Pro serves as a remote control and central hub between camera and flash units. It is connected to the camera via the hot shoe and is ready for use at once. With its clear and intuitive controls, the slim flash trigger works reliably and with consistent performance under changing light conditions where the established TTL and HSS functions can speed up the workflow.

In automatic mode, the flash output is calculated automatically and can then be adjusted with the Connect Pro. In manual mode, photographers have the possibility to adjust the exposure to their personal style.

The Connect Pro and other Leica-compatible Profoto products will also be available in selected Leica Stores soon.
