Each month we take a closer look at a certain item in Profoto’s rich assortment of Light Shaping Tools. We have previously covered the Umbrella XL, the HR Lantern, the Softlight Reflector, the Softbox 3×4’ RF, the ProRing 2, the Zoom Reflector, the Giant Silver, the Softbox 5’ Octa and the TeleZoom Reflector. This time we will take a closer look at the Cine Reflector Video Production Kit.

But this time we will do things a little differently. As the Cine Reflector Video Production Kit was designed to work with both strobes and continuous light sources, we decided that it was about time for our very first Light Shaping Tool of the Month video. However, instead of recording the video ourselves, we asked fashion photographer Ville Paul Paasimaa to try out the kit and share his thoughts.

So, with no further ado, we present Ville Paul Paasimaa and the Cine Reflector Video Production Kit. Enjoy!

Oh, and for your information, the kit includes:

• 1 Cine Reflector (including PAR and Open Face type reflector) + stand attachment
• 1 Lens Kit (including 5 different lenses)
• 1 Scrim Kit (including 4 scrims)
• 1 clear glass cover
• 1 barn doors
• 1 diffusion sheet
• 1 pair of heat resistant gloves
