Questions & Answers

KEELY S : Would this work with my strobe modifiers? Specifically (bowens mount) Glow softboxes? Is there any reason I couldn't use a Photek Softlighter with it? I need a light for my video work and would be thrilled if I could use my existing modifiers.MICHAEL O : Most Bowens mount modifiers will work with this light, however it can get quite hot 6-8 inches in front of the element, so be careful of any modifiers that cannot withstand excessive heat. The light lacks an umbrella mount, so the Photek Softligher would not work unless you get something like the CLAR 7" reflector that has an integrated umbrella mount.Alan E : It will work with any Bowen’s mount accessory.STEVE B : I have some Glow brand and many other Bowen’s Mount modifiers and so far they have all worked on the Aputure 300Dii
Shopper : What softbox mount does it use?MICHAEL D : This has a Bowens Mount.
Shopper : Does it come with a battery charger?DAVID T : No. This doesn’t come with any large batteries or a charger. Simply a plate to power the lights off batteries.

I love my new light

I loved my 120 but wanted a little more power. Well, I got A LOT more power. And the light stand clamp is a major bonus.

Great light but should have waited and got the 300x to keep me more future proof. Still a great product.

Solid light exceeds expectations

I had read a lot of great reviews about this light so I already had some relatively high expectations. But this was even better than expected. Solid build and seamless user interface. My only complaint is the carrying case. It is a little too form fitting for the items included. Adding the fresnel adapter and barn will require upgrading to a flight case just for the extra space. But in the grand scheme of things this is a relatively minor complaint.

Great Key, no led competitors

Love this light. It’s a huge improvement over the last version and there really isn’t a competitor in this type of light. It’s bright (although not as bright as they claim, probably more joker 400 than joker 800). But the single source led and their great accessories like the parabolic lite dome 2 make this an indispensable key light. Pick up the fresnel to shoot it through windows like a small HMI.

FEATURED REVIEWS

Great light

By JARED W.

Love this light. So powerful and very quiet. Can?t recommend enough.

Beautiful light

By Josh F.

Awesome light. Powerful and bright. Built to last with beautiful and creative design.

Changing the Game.

Two years ago, Aputure revolutionized the industry with the 300d, by creating a powerful and compact LED fixture that could be modified easily. Filmmakers from around the world loved the light’s capabilities, but we knew we could enhance the light even more. So we listened and went back to the drawing board. Powered by user feedback, the new and improved 300d Mark II is 20% brighter, more durable, more portable, and more intelligent than the original 300d. Change the way you light.

Changing the Game.

Even More Output.

By utilizing the latest in Aputure COB LED technology, the 300d Mark II outputs a whopping 20% more light than its predecessor. When combined with the Fresnel 2X, the 300d Mark II can produce up to 80,000 lux. And as always, the 5500K‐balanced 300d Mark II maintains impeccable color fidelity with CRI and TLCI ratings of 96+ and 97+ respectively.

Even More Output.

A More Robust Lamp Head.

The 300d Mark II also introduces new design features, while maintaining the same form factor and lightweight aircraft aluminum body as the original 300d. The new yoke allows for 360° of rotation, and when combined with the handbrake locking mechanism from the 120d Mark II, you’ll be able to mount the light in any position, with any modifier.

A More Robust Lamp Head.

Max Efficiency with Hyper Reflector.

The 300d Mark II is also the first Aputure light to feature the all-new, hyper efficient 55° reflector. By slightly narrowing the beam from 60° to 55° and redesigning the inner shape and coating of the reflector, we were able to increase the output of the 300d II by more than 3 times, when compared to the original design.

Max Efficiency with Hyper Reflector.

A Revolutionary Redesign.

But the real advancement is in the complete redesign of the control box. By utilizing Aputure’s fan‐less heatsink design, the 300d Mark II’s All‐in‐One control box is now completely silent. Composed of a durable aluminum alloy, with a new concealed antenna and military‐grade paracord strap, the control box is ready to withstand the rigor of any film set. The 300d Mark II control box is also the first product to utilize Aputure’s new quick release plate and clamp system, allowing you to firmly secure it on any stand, truss, or speed rail.

A Revolutionary Redesign.

Power Solutions for Indie Filmmakers.

The 300d Mark II can produce its maximum output by using two high capacity V‐Mount or Gold Mount batteries, but it also features new technology that allows you to power the light with a single battery at up to half output.* You can use this light anywhere your filmmaking takes you.

The included 6m NEUTRIK® cable provides the 300d II with a sturdy power connection and allows you the convenience of not having to grab a stinger to power your light. And now, by utilizing a standard 3m male‐to‐female 5‐pin XLR, you can easily replace the header cable in a pinch. An optional 7.5m 5‐pin XLR is also available, letting you keep your control box within arm’s reach while giving you the ability to rig your light anywhere you want, from a menace arm to a tall goalpost rig.

*Due to the high maximum 340‐350W power draw from the light, we recommend only using batteries that are capable of at least 15‐amp continuous power draw.

Power Solutions for Indie Filmmakers.

New Control Features.

The long‐awaited 0%‐100% stepless dimming control allows you to use the 300d II in low‐light environments or to overpower the sun, and can utilize any of 4 different dimming curves: Linear, Logarithmic, Exponential, and S‐Curve.

The 300d Mark II also features a “studio mode” that allows the lights to turn on and be controlled immediately upon receiving power, making it perfect for DMX lighting grids.

New Control Features.

More Options For Control.

In addition to the control wheel, the 300d Mark II also features DMX512‐compatibility, a new 2.4Ghz Aputure Wireless remote with an FX toggle button, and the ability to be controlled by the Sidus Link App using our Bluetooth mesh network protocol.

More Options For Control.

Sidus Link App Control.

Featuring all‐new Bluetooth SIG mesh network technology, the 300d Mark II will also the first app‐controllable Aputure lighting fixture.* This technology will allow you to control a 300d Mark II from up to 400 meters away, by linking multiple lights up to 80 meters apart. Using the Sidus Link app, you’ll be able to access all of the functions of the control box, in addition to being able to save presets, finely tune and trigger additional lighting FX, as well as install firmware updates, all from your smartphone or tablet.

*Support for the Sidus Link app on iPhone, iPad, and Android will be released a varying times throughout 2019.
