Handling
Stand mounting
1.
Fit the stand adapter [12] to a light stand and secure it with the
clamp screw [13].
2. The D2 unit can be directed upwards/downwards when the tilt-
lock knob [11] is loosened. Fasten the tilt-lock knob [11] when the
unit is correctly directed.
Mounting Profoto Light Shaping Tools
The D2 unit has a built-in reflector that creates a wide and even light
spread with a high output. In addition, the D2 unit is compatible with
more than 120 light shaping tools, which can be used to shape its
already beautiful light into almost any light you can imagine.
Please note that the D2 unit is not compatible with the OCF Light
Shaping Tools, as they are designed for flashes with LED lights and not
for flashes with hot halogen modeling bulbs as in D2.
All tools with standard reflector mount (rubber collar with
clasp)
Most reflectors are equipped with Profoto's unique clamp mechanism,
which makes them easy to mount and allows you to shape the light by
simply sliding the reflector back and forth along the zoom scale [9].
1.
Unlock the clasp on the external reflector.
2. Slide the reflector onto the D2 unit. Use the zoom scale [9] to place
the reflector in the desired position.
3. Secure the reflector by locking the clasp.
Umbrella mounting
Umbrellas are easily mounted by sliding the umbrella shaft into the
umbrella holder [8]. The diameter of the umbrella shaft must be
between 7 mm and 8 mm in order to fit. When an umbrella is used, it is
not possible to mount an external reflector at the same time.
1.
Slide the umbrella shaft into the umbrella holder [8] on the D2 unit.
2. After a few centimeters, there will be more friction. Continue to slide
the umbrella shaft a few more centimeters into the umbrella holder [8].
