Product Information
Full details
The Profoto MaxiZoom Reflector is designed for professional photographers and videographers who utilize Profoto flat-front flashes or point-source LEDs and need maximum light intensity over distance. Its standout benefit is the ability to boost output by up to two full f-stops while providing a highly controllable beam, making it an essential tool for high-power studio or location work. A notable caveat for prospective users is that its performance is specifically optimized for flat-front light heads, so owners of recessed or domed heads may experience inconsistent beam patterns.

FAQs
Does this work with Profoto B1 or B10 series?
Yes, as long as the light heads feature the standard flat-front design consistent with Profoto's system requirements.
Can I use this with dome-diffused strobes?
It is not recommended. The reflector is specifically designed for flat-front optics to achieve the intended 25-degree spot and output boost.
How do I clean the interior surface?
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust. Avoid using chemical cleaners that may damage the high-gloss finish.
Does it come with a grid?
The product includes the reflector and a padded case; grids are sold separately if you require further beam control.
How much weight does it add to my light setup?
It is designed to be lightweight, but it does add significant physical length to the front of the light head, so ensure your light stand is balanced.
Troubleshooting
Beam appears uneven or shadow edges are inconsistent.
Verify that your light head is a flat-front model and that the reflector is seated completely straight on the mounting track.
The reflector feels loose or slides too easily on the mount.
Tighten the locking mechanism on the reflector mount or check the track for debris preventing a firm connection.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the reflector, simply align it with the mounting ring of your Profoto light head and lock it into place. The zoom functionality is engaged by sliding the reflector along the track on the fixture; always adjust this slowly to avoid mechanical wear on the locking pins. For compatibility, ensure your light head is a flat-front design, as this ensures the light hits the faceted interior at the correct angle. To care for your unit, keep the interior surface free of dust and fingerprints, as oil can degrade the reflectivity over time. Store the reflector in the included padded case when not in use to prevent dents, which can negatively impact the light beam pattern.
