i just bought a set of Profoto Compact 600 and a Sekonic 758 meter. This is one great setup. I had my first model shoot and tried the 1:1 down to 4:1 ratios with this model and the results are interisting. I have seen pics of this done on the net various places but until you do it yourself you just cant really judge the difference. I will attach the photos so you can see what I mean.

The meter made it fool proof to get the light setting ratios correct. I am one happy camper.

Great tests, but sure you played with camera settings, are those all light power adjust at the same setting of camera?
