WTB: Profoto Air Remote TTL-S for Sony
« on: January 18, 2018, 04:52:21 pm »

Looking for a used Profoto Air remote that works with my Sony equipment. I would consider trading the Nikon version, if you happen to need it. Or let me know how much you would sell for. Thanks!

I just got one three days ago. It won't work with my Sony A7RIII so if I can't return it I will sell it. I don't want to sell for a used price, so you likely will want to keep looking, but if you have an RIII Profoto has no timeline to provide a firmware update.

I'm told Profoto fixing that with a firmware update which makes sense, since they're committed to the Sony and not about to abandon the best Sony yet :)

The last firmware date on this device was February 2017.

For anybody following this thread here's an update.

My setup is: B1 flash heads, A7Riii camera, and an Air TTL-S remote with the latest firmware, A3.

For me, this combination *is* working. HSS and TTL are working at multiple shutter speeds and on multiple channels. No issues that I can find. YMMV, as I guess this camera is not officially supported yet.

Steve Hendrix at CI sent this tip and it worked: Set flash mode "Wireless Flash" to on.

Eureka!
