Profoto Speedring for OCF Flash Heads

The Profoto Speedring for OCF Flash Heads is a versatile accessory designed to work with various Profoto light modifiers. It is specifically made for B1 and B2 accessories and is part of the OCF line, which is lighter weight and more affordable than the RFI line made for B1s and D1s. The speed ring is essential for using softboxes and Octa Boxes with B2 heads. Additionally, it can be used with Godox AD300Pro lights, as they have a similar diameter to Profoto's OCF lights. However, it is important to note that for certain models like the Profoto A1X OCF, an OCF adapter is needed for compatibility. The editorial review reveals mixed feelings about the quality and price of the product. Some users appreciate its sturdiness and reliable build, typical of Profoto products. Others find it flimsy and overpriced. They note that the plastic Construction feels questionable given the premium pricing. One user reported experiencing breakage, raising concerns about its long-term durability. Additionally, there are complaints about the difficulty of assembly, especially when attaching it to a 5ft octa, citing it as the most challenging piece to put together. Overall, the general sentiment is that while it works as intended, the price may not be justified for a plastic speed ring. **
