Profoto Clic Softgrid Octa (2.3' / 28")

The Essential Tool for Precise Portrait Lighting on the Go

When you want the beautifully soft, natural catchlights of your octagonal softbox but need to prevent that light from washing out your entire scene, a grid is your best friend. The Profoto Clic Softgrid Octa (2.3') is a high-quality fabric egg crate specifically tailored to fit perfectly over the highly portable 2.3-foot (28-inch) Profoto Clic Softbox Octa.

By restricting the beam spread (similar to a 40-degree grid), this fabric softgrid gives you ultimate directional control. It tunnels the soft light forward, allowing you to beautifully illuminate your subject while keeping the surrounding environment dark and dramatic. It is an absolute necessity for location photographers working in tight interior spaces or trying to create moody, high-contrast portraits without spilling light onto walls or backgrounds.

Why You'll Love This Modifier

• Precision Spill Control: It concentrates the light beam into a more directional tunnel. This maintains the smooth, flattering edge transition your octagonal softbox is known for while drastically reducing unwanted light spill on your background.

• Effortless Slip-On Design: Say goodbye to wrestling with stubborn, noisy hook-and-loop (Velcro) straps on location. This grid features a brilliant elastic "pull-over" edge that quickly and securely slips entirely over the outer lip of the 2.3' Clic Softbox Octa in a matter of seconds.

• Packs Down to Nothing: Made of high-quality, lightweight fabric, it folds down completely flat to a fraction of its open size. It easily fits into the included labeled soft pouch, taking up virtually zero space in your gear bag.

• Maintains Softness: Unlike hard metal reflectors that change the texture and harshness of the light, this fabric grid strictly controls the direction of the light without sacrificing the smooth fall-off required for professional portrait and beauty photography.

Technical Specifications

Things to Note

It is crucial to understand that this product is only the fabric grid itself; the actual Profoto Clic Softbox Octa 2.3' and the flash unit are sold separately.

Additionally, because this modifier is part of the "Clic" ecosystem, it is sized perfectly for the 2.3-foot (70cm) Clic Octa softbox (which is built for Profoto's compact A-series flashes like the A10 and A2). You cannot attach this grid to the smaller 2-foot or larger 2.7-foot Clic softboxes, the heavier OCF softboxes, or classic RFi modifiers, as the dimensions will not match. Finally, because of the lightweight materials, this grid is strictly intended for flashes using cool-running LED modeling lights, not hot halogen bulbs.
