Profoto OCF 1’x3’ Softbox with Speedring
$200.00 /day
An ultra-lightweight, highly portable 1’x3′ (30x90cm) strip softbox from Profoto’s Off-Camera Flash (OCF) line. Includes a dedicated lightweight OCF speedring, engineered specifically for fast-paced location lighting with B10 and B1x strobes.
A 10% damage waiver fee will be applied to your order in the rental basket unless proof of own insurance can be supplied.
The Profoto OCF 1’x3’ Softbox (30x90cm) is a premium, ultra-portable strip light modifier engineered from the ground up for on-location photographers and fast-moving production crews. Unlike Profoto’s heavy-duty RFi studio modifiers, the Off-Camera Flash (OCF) ecosystem utilizes advanced lightweight fabrics and a streamlined rod architecture to significantly reduce load weights and setup times on set. It is the definitive choice for run-and-gun fashion, portrait, and wedding creators who need surgical light tracking without hauling heavy modifier frames.
The elongated 1’x3′ strip geometry generates a narrow, highly controlled beam of soft illumination that is exceptional for accent work. It creates clean, uniform highlights with a beautiful, natural gradient fall-off. Inside, a highly reflective coating maximizes the power output of your battery-powered flash units. This rental package includes the native, patent-pending Profoto OCF Speedring, featuring a lightweight rubber collar design and color-coded slots for instant, tool-free assembly.
⚠️ Important Thermal Notice: This OCF softbox is custom-built exclusively for portable, battery-powered off-camera flashes utilizing LED modeling lights (such as the Profoto B10, B10 Plus, B1x, and B1 series). Due to its lightweight material composition, it is not heat-compatible with studio monolights or heads using hot high-wattage halogen modeling lamps (like the Profoto D2 1000W or Pro heads).

-
Q: What is the main difference between an OCF softbox and an RFi softbox?
A: The primary differences are weight and heat resistance. OCF softboxes are built with featherlight, flexible materials and rubber speedrings tailored for fast location work, but can only handle the low heat of LED modeling lamps. RFi softboxes are heavier, reinforced studio modifiers built to withstand the intense thermal output of high-wattage halogen modeling lamps.
-
Q: Can I mount this OCF softbox onto a Profoto D2 1000W monolight?
A: No. We strictly advise against using OCF modifiers on the Profoto D2 series or studio lamp heads with 300W/600W halogen modeling lamps. The continuous high heat can scorch or melt the lightweight OCF fabrics. For the D2, please rent our Profoto RFi 1’x4′ strip box instead.
-
Q: Which flash units are natively compatible with this OCF softbox bundle?
A: It perfectly mounts onto the Profoto B10, B10 Plus, B1x, and B1 series. It can also be paired with the Profoto A1, A2, or A10 series if you rent the auxiliary Profoto OCF Adapter.
-
Q: How is the rental fee calculated?

-
Q: Is a deposit required?
A: Yes, a corresponding deposit is required for all equipment rentals.
-
Q: What payment methods are accepted for the deposit?
