Adaptable light with a wide color temperature:
The Aputure LS 300x is a bi-color LED with incredible flexibility. The white and yellow light sources are seamlessly blended using an optical element in front of the light source, resulting in an accurate reproduction of correlated color temperatures (CCT) ranging from 2700K – 6500K. The vast color temperature range gives creators the ability to confidently shoot dramatically cool or warm scenes one after the other. The temperature can be precisely adjusted down to 50K increments so you can properly light a sunset scene or a moonlit moment. To keep things moving on a busy set, the 300x comes with five different presets of popular color temperature (2700K, 3200K, 4300K, 5500K, 6500K) to quickly choose from.
Creators can shape the lighting exactly to their liking with light modifiers. For example, the Fresnel 2X allows the Aputure LS 300x to produce 56,000 lux at one meter, or the Light Dome II nicely diffuses harsh light. The 300x comes with two output modes: Constant Output Mode and Max Output Mode. Constant Output Mode ensures luminance levels stay fixed while changing color temperatures, and Max Output Modes emits maximum output if overpowering light is needed.
The 300x comes with nine built-in light effects including Paparazzi, Lightning, and TV. The effects are available in the full range of CCT so content creators can add personality and style to any shot they want.
All-in-one design with remote controlling:
The Aputure LS 300x is modeled after the 300d II and keeps a sleek lamp head build. The light comes with a totally silent control box and can be powered by two separate batteries. The passively-cooled control box is a quick and efficient way to adjust the CCT, choose presets, effects, and more. If you need mobility, the settings can be adjusted via 2.4G RF remote or the Sidus Mesh app. The Sidus Mesh app can control up to 100 synced up lights right from your smartphone or tablet.
The light can be operated with one battery at half of maximum output, or two batteries at full output, and the batteries show real-time battery life. Lastly, the 300x is compatible with the Bowens S mount so users can switch between light modifiers with ease.
The new Aputure LS 300x comes in V-mount (available now), and A-mount (pre-order now) for at Adorama.
