Pres Release:

Phase One and Profoto Deliver Unique Integrated*
Image Capture & Light Control Solution

Capture One Pro 6 and Profoto Studio Synergy Accelerates Workflow

FOCUS ON IMAGING, Birmingham, March 6, 2011*— Phase One and Profoto today announced the availability of a unique image capture and light control solution that*allows photographers to capture images and to control lighting from within Capture One Pro 6, when using Profoto lighting equipment.*

How it works
A separate light control tool will be enabled in Capture One Pro 6 when the Profoto Studio plugin is installed. With this configuration and the Profoto Air USB transceiver,*photographers have full remote access for wireless control of Profoto lighting equipment from within the Capture One application.

Value to photographers
“Prior to this solution, photographers would have to either switch between Capture One and Profoto Studio to get the optimal light on their set or they had to adjust the light*manually,” said Carsten H. Olsen, senior product manager, Phase One. “Now photographers can stay focused on the scene and get their desired captures much faster.“*

“Lighting is one of the key creative elements for the photographers we serve,” said Fredrik Fischer, product manager, Profoto. “The new combination of Profoto Studio and*Capture One gives our customers easy access to experiment and develop their creative processes.”**
