The Profoto RFi 3’ Octa Softbox (90cm) is a favorite among portrait, fashion, and beauty photographers who demand an wrap-around light source that mimics the natural geometry of the sun. While square or rectangular modifiers are excellent for structured environments, the octagonal shape of the Octa creates a beautifully distinct, circular catchlight in the subject’s eyes, closely emulating a large beauty dish or window light but with a vastly softer quality.

Part of Profoto’s elite RFi (Recessed Front Intense) line, this 3-foot softbox features a deep, parabolic design and a recessed front lip. This structural depth gives you incredible control over the light beam, allowing you to focus its wrap-around quality cleanly onto your subject while dramatically reducing side spill on studio backgrounds. Built with an industrial-grade silver interior, it amplifies raw strobe output while preserving brilliant micro-contrast. Paired with its premium dual-layer internal and external diffusion panels, it eliminates hotspots entirely for flawless skin-tone transitions. This rental package includes the native Profoto RFi Speedring, making it an instant, plug-and-play solution for your Profoto D2, B1, B1x, B10, or B10 Plus strobes.
