Profoto 1x4' OCF Softbox

The Profoto 1x4' OCF Softbox is a rectangular light modifier built for professional photography and videography. It delivers exceptionally soft and even illumination across its surface. A strip mask is included to narrow the light spread for creative control over shadows and highlights. The unit weighs 3.3 lbs and folds into a supplied soft bag for transport.

Upgrading from basic modifiers

Photographers moving up from simple umbrellas or small softboxes gain precise shaping and a unique blend of soft and hard light from the 1x4' format. The longer side produces elongated shadow edges while the shorter side casts crisper, shorter edges. This jump is worth it when you need dramatic rim or edge lighting that separates subjects from backgrounds.

Portrait and product specialists

This softbox suits shooters who want portable, durable studio quality for location work. The included strip mask adds versatility for contouring light on faces or objects. Buyers needing larger surface areas for full-body groups or wider flood coverage should look at bigger modifiers. Those requiring built-in grid mounts or motorised adjustment will need different systems.

Questions about this item

What size speed-ring or adapter do I need to mount the 1x4' OCF Softbox on a Profoto flash head?

The softbox uses the Profoto OCF speed-ring system; attach the dedicated OCF ring to the flash head first, then lock the softbox onto the ring.

Which step do people skip when setting up the 1x4' OCF Softbox and the strip mask?

Many forget to tension all four rods evenly before snapping the front diffuser; uneven tension leaves wrinkles and lets the strip mask sit crooked.

How do I clean or replace the front diffuser and strip mask on the 1x4' OCF Softbox?

Both panels unzip from the frame; hand-wash the fabric in lukewarm water with mild detergent, air-dry fully, then zip them back in place.
