Needless to say I was happy I stumbled across this today, not knowing that this was available last night when I purchased the AcuteB 600R. Looks like I will be able to get a few more goodies. I'm glad I waited to get it to because this runs from April 1 - June 30, 2009. I neary bought it a couple weeks ago. :D Finally it worked out.

Jeff,

is it worth the money to get D4 instead of Acute2R?

btw, the way they give out free is weird. For example, if i buy the Profoto Acute2R 1200 Pro Value Pack ($4000) then i can get $1,000 in Free Accessories while i can buy it as:

1. Acute2/D4 Head ($915) then i can get $1,000 in Free Accessories = another Acute2/D4 Head (do this twice then i will have 4 Acute2/D4 Head
2. Buy a D4 Generators, get another $1000 Free Accessories.

Now the question is, will they honor if i send in 3 or 4 different receipts?

It doesn't say how that works, so it's possible.

If I had double the funds available, I would have considered the D4. But I don't, so AcuteB it is :) Unless you want to gift one to me :D

Rereading your post - You have to buy "Acute2/2R ProValue Pack or Acute2/2R pack with 2 Heads" to get the $1000 in free stuff. You are unable to buy just the heads.

The D4 Generator gives you $2000 in free stuff - not too shabby.

I just wish I had an extra $3k. I spent nearly that for what I got - AcuteB 600R, 3' octabox, an extra battery for the 600R and an extension cord for my Acute head (mainly for my bg light in studio because I need more reach at times).

The D4 is a monster and would be lovely to have, but I think the AcuteB will suit me fine.

Even of buying the D4 Generator, you will be able to get 2 free head. Still a good deal. :)
