the Mola was first and Profoto simply copied the design for the beauty dish. I dont think theres much difference between them unless there are size variants that I am unaware of with Mola.
a copy? I don't think so...
The mola has much nicer specular highlights. a kind of crispness to it. beauty dish ain't bad, just different.
After looking at the Mola reflectors and accessories on the B&H site I'd like to know how people modify them to use Profoto light heads. Thx.
