I did recently also get a Move 1200L kit and plan to use it with the para exclusively. Keeping the profoto stuff because i\'m already far too invested in their OCF system
Thankx for posting—a good read.
Me, I\'d sell the OCF stuff while it still has some value. Godox, or some-other asian company will kill the OCF market soon.
I\'ve already seen a lot of work with the godox, flashpoint, and other chinese strobes. they seem to be awesome for the price, and with a bowens mount, there are plentiful options for modifiers.
I still like the profoto stuff, though, and it\'ll always have a place in my kit for its ruggedness, performance and reliability. And all of the OCF modifiers I\'ve already invested in. I\'d hate to lose a good amount of money i just spent over the last year by trying to move into the Siros L (and possibly another Move pack) as replacements, and then trying to replace all my profoto modifiers.
on the up side, the RFi modifiers and rotalux modifiers are easily adapted to broncolor. The OCF modifiers aren\'t recommended to be used with an RFi speedring, so i can\'t adapt any of them. those will be strictly for use with the B1\'s and B2\'s
I have a ton of lighting and each piece has a place in my kit, either for a specific purpose, or just as a backup
