When Profoto sent over the new B20 strobe for review, I was instantly concerned by the box that showed up at my doorstep. It was a massive and heavy cardboard box that was hiding a safely packed backpack with the light, a trigger, and the necessary charging brick. Upon unpacking, what instantly stood out was the weight. The B20 is a beefier successor to the B10 and B10X, and while there’s a lot more strobe to go around, in this review, we ask if bigger necessarily means better.
