Hi, I’m experiencing very low FPS with the Profoto Connect PRO and Leica SL2/SL2s cameras. The SL2/SL2s are set to 6 FPS and perform perfectly, but when the Profoto Connect PRO is mounted and turned on, the FPS drops dramatically. Is there any way to resolve this issue? Thanks.

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

maybe your Profoto strobe cannot fire at 6 fps. What's your power setting on the Profoto?

Tried with profoto connect pro in set on Ttl and manually at minimum power, 0.1 on my b10, SL fires slower than 1 fps.  
Same settings with my canon r3, the b10 fire continuously without issues.

It is very much possible that the pre-flash delays the shutter. Is there a legacy mode on the trigger.

it is the same with the godox. I use a godox/canon trigger in the studio. Flash is all manual anyway

Just use the ProFoto Leica air remote 

Any ProFoto flash will fire at any fps ( if turned down from 1/1 

the Connect is for automation photographers 

it’s best to always use manual on flash anyway.
