I'm sure that like me, many of you have read about the newly released Profoto A2 flash. It is a compact 100ws flash that looks to be quite versatile. After watching a couple videos, I went to see the price and was amazed that it's US$1K which I will never justify for such a tool. I'm curious what others think about and if you'd spend $1K on a 100ws flash.

These look pretty cool and I was curious about the price. Knew it would be expensive since it's profoto, but man, don't think I could swallow $1000 on these.

I really liked the OCF adapter they shown for it too. Hopefully they price that reasonably or at least clearance out the old $300 version. I'd love to have a couple for my A1 flashes when I'm trying to pack light.

It's an interesting light, especially if you do weddings or use a smartphone for photography. It's on the low end of strobes and not a hot shoe speedlight. Kind of in between. The price tag isn't surprising since Sweden adds a 25% VAT tax on these types of exports.

Probably good for run and gun applications such as real estate and event. It's lightweight with an easy to use menu, so there's an appeal to some. It will be interesting to see how well it sells.
