PPC Silver - D1 & Basic Lst

Explanation
The correct statements are: Stockholm, Sweden is the home of Profoto, We still use the same mounting system for our modifiers dating back to the beginning, Profoto was founded in 1968 by Conny Dufgran and Eckhard Heine.

Explanation
A soft grid does not change a softbox into a hard light source. Instead, it helps to control and direct the light from the softbox by narrowing the beam and reducing the spread of light. This can create more focused and directional lighting, but it does not change the quality of the light from soft to hard.

Explanation
The correct answer is that the larger the light source in relationship to the subject, the softer the light. This is because a larger light source creates more diffused light, resulting in softer shadows and a more even distribution of light on the subject. Conversely, the smaller the light source in relationship to the subject, the harder the light. A smaller light source produces more focused and direct light, creating harsher shadows and a more dramatic lighting effect.

Explanation
The Profoto softlight reflector is a hard reflector because it is designed to provide a harsh and direct light source. Softlight reflectors, on the other hand, are used to create a diffused and softer light.

Explanation
The correct answer is 250/500/1000. The Profoto D1 offers three watt second ranges of 250, 500, and 1000.

Explanation
The statement is false because the Profoto D1 can only be used in manual mode. It does not have TTL (Through The Lens) capabilities, which means it cannot automatically adjust the flash output based on the camera's metering. Therefore, the only way to control the power of the flash is by manually adjusting it.

Explanation
The correct answer is "All of the above." This means that all of the statements mentioned about the Profoto D1 are correct. The Profoto D1 can be purchased with or without Profoto Air, it has a built-in 77 degree reflector similar to the B1, and it has a 7 stop range that can be controlled in 10ths of a stop.

Explanation
The unique feature of the Profoto reflector that was shown in 1968 when Profoto was first launched was its ability to zoom. This means that the reflector could be adjusted to focus the light in a specific direction or spread it out over a wider area, providing photographers with more control and flexibility in their lighting setups.

Explanation
The RFi line of Profoto soft goods offers a color coded rod and speedring system for easy set up, a 50 degree softgrid for all sizes, strip masks available for some sizes, and speedring mounts for other companies lights including speedlites. This means that the soft goods are designed to be user-friendly and efficient in terms of set up, with a color coding system that simplifies the process. Additionally, the inclusion of a 50 degree softgrid ensures that all sizes of the soft goods provide a consistent and controlled light spread. The availability of strip masks for some sizes allows for further customization and control of the light output. Lastly, the compatibility with speedrings for other companies' lights, including speedlites, makes the RFi line versatile and adaptable to different lighting setups.

Explanation
The Profoto Air Remote and AirTTL remotes are designed to control all Profoto lights that have Air built in. This means that these remotes can wirelessly trigger and adjust the settings of any Profoto light that is equipped with Air technology. Therefore, the statement is true.
