Profoto Softbox Octa (3', Silver Interior)

The Quick-Setup Standard for Stunning Portrait Catchlights

When portrait and fashion photographers want to create a flattering, natural-looking light that mimics the wrap of a large window or the sun, an octagonal softbox is the industry standard. The Profoto Softbox Octa (3', Silver Interior) perfectly balances this beloved shape with Profoto's next-generation, frustration-free setup design.

By integrating the speedring directly into the modifier, Profoto has eliminated the tedious process of threading separate metal rods. You can pop this 3-foot modifier open like an umbrella in seconds. Paired with a highly reflective silver interior, it delivers a punchy, crisp light with beautiful contrast, ensuring your subjects pop off the background while maintaining perfectly round catchlights in their eyes.

This is a dealer demo, new open-box, and priced accordingly.

Why You'll Love This Modifier

• Instant Umbrella Setup: Say goodbye to wrestling with tension rods on set. The mount is built directly into the fabric of the softbox, allowing you to snap the entire unit open and securely lock it onto your flash in seconds, drastically speeding up your studio workflow.

• The Perfect Catchlight: The octagonal (8-sided) shape is specifically favored for portraits because it creates natural, circular reflections in the subject's eyes. It avoids the artificial, square "window" look that rectangular softboxes leave behind.

• Crisp, High-Output Silver: While a white interior provides ultra-soft, forgiving diffusion, this highly reflective silver interior maximizes the efficiency of your flash. It creates a slightly punchier, more directional light that enhances contrast, making textures and details pop in fashion and commercial work.

• Customizable Diffusion: The softbox includes a removable inner baffle and a 1-stop front diffuser. Keep both attached for incredibly smooth gradients, or remove them entirely to utilize the softbox as a massive, hard-edged silver parabolic reflector.

• Heat-Resistant Durability: Constructed from premium, heavy-duty fabrics, this softbox is built for the rigors of a professional studio. It can safely handle continuous halogen modeling lamps (hot lights) up to 500W.

Technical Specifications

Things to Note

Because this modifier features the new integrated speedring design, it mounts natively onto traditional Profoto 100mm flash heads right out of the box (including the D1, D2, B1X, B10, and ProHeads). If you intend to use this softbox with Profoto's smaller battery-powered A-series flashes (like the A10 or A2), you will need to purchase the separately available Profoto OCF Adapter.

It is also important to distinguish this new model (simply named "Profoto Softbox") from the battery-optimized "OCF" line. Unlike OCF softboxes (which are built of lighter materials strictly for battery flashes with LED modeling lamps), this standard Softbox Octa features heavy-duty fabrics that can safely handle the intense heat of traditional AC-powered studio strobes.
