Essential lighting tool for filmmaking

These lights are essential for flexible filmmaking. With the Sidus app you can remotely control them and choose nearly any color to light your scene! I would highly recommend them to anyone!

One of the Silliest Offerings from Aputure

Although certainly not the highest quality lighting instruments out there, Aputure usually puts together very capable products, and although these units are very capable this kit borders on the ridiculous. Why not put everything into just one case, incorporate the power supply into that case, and then provide accessories for ALL (4) of the units? This kit doesn?t make much practical sense and the cherry on top is that you?ll be paying more than if you purchased (4) units separately (where you would actually get accessories for all four fixtures).

Aputure MC Mini Led Kit

These little lights are great... have an old monitor platform with a 5/8ths mount and the magnets on these light grip on this and can create a quick portable soft light. Just lit an indie film and created a hair light by attaching two MC's to an overhead AC duct...very useful as accent lights.

Great Product

A solid product. Aputure does not cut corners in design and reliability. I think I may purchase a few more of these soon.

Badass Lights

Incredible set of lights and a must have if you want something compact, RGB, has effects, and a case that wirelessly charges them. Highly highly highly recommend!!

Get them!!

These things are amazing! Powerful, small, portable, magnetic, versatile. These suckers are a game changer! And throw enough light out to even shoot a one person interview. I would recommend a thousand times over.

Good overall

very interesting lighting kit. Look forward using it on a real set. The charging case feels very well designed. Wish the bag is more rigid so that it's easier to organize things inside

Very handy

It was a little smaller than I expected but good things come in small packages. Once I realized the ease of these LED’s and how handy they are I was happy. It’s also nice to impress the DP and have him asking for them regularly as well.

Where have you been all my life?

Unreal how useful these are. Just amazing. I can't believe I lived so long without something like this. Only issue is now I need like 100 to use for everything. Luckily it's the same price for three cases of 4 as it is for one case of 12. So I can keep them separated and not have to lug a bigger case around.

Super lights

Still late with shipping but I like those lights a lot especially because they are magnetic just be careful because the battery is only for two hours but enough to lit a scene with any color and effect possible

multi color to go!

Great kit, super portable. Works nicely for color and fills, app is nice as well. although not strong enough to be a key light. because they are magnetic i was able to just slap these on the c-stands and other items to get targeted fills. Only complaint is the battery life is only about 3 hours and they died towards the end of an event. in hindsight i might have bought the larger kit so i have swaps!

Small, Practical and Mostly Perfect

I’ve used these lights for several paid gigs and love them. Specifically, I’ve used them as accent lights in the background for cooking shows and to add atmosphere to “hero” food shots while on set and they go great with my Aputure 300D2. They last a long time, the charging case is definitely worth the little bit extra, and the app control makes these things a no brainer. The only bad thing is I wish it came with 4 diffusers, not 2. But, that’s a pretty small gripe. Overall, would buy it again. Hands down.

Great compact multiple light system

Like the lights. The interface is fairly easy to navigate. The charging options are great. Note there are two things carry for full use (accessory bag) but a quick single use only needs the pictured case to go with. Complete item list for the 4 light kit is: 4 lights Charging case Accessory case including AC charging cable Short USB a to USB c cable 2 diffusers 2 ball head mounts 4 Velcro mounts

Close to awesome

Neat product. Good build. Lights are great.. I wished everything fit into one case (there is a case and a pouch). It only comes with 2 diffusers, not 4. Uses a huge power brick rather than a type C USB to charge.

Awesome!

Having 4 of the Aputure MC lights in a nice travel case that also doubles as a wireless charger is just AWESOME!!! The case not only wirelessly charges all 4 lights at once, but also provides 2 additional USB ports for charging other items as well. This was well worth the wait. The Sidus Link application just puts this over the top with how easy it to control all of the lights individually or all at once. I would definitely purchase again and also highly recommend!

Love this product. Incredibly useful in so many situations

Amazing

By Brandon C.

Great product, Apurture only brand I will use for lighting needs!

MC. Any Color. Any Time.

The MC is Aputure’s first light to include full Hue, Saturation, & Intensity (HSI) color control. With 360° of hue and 100 levels of saturation adjustment, you have the power to conveniently reproduce any color, all in the palm of your hand.

mc

Stellar Color Quality.

As with all Aputure lights, the MC prides itself in its color rendition, with CRI and TLCI scores of 96+, and SSI scores of 84 in tungsten and 74 in daylight. This is all accomplished by an underlying technology that reproduces color better and more accurately than ever before: RGBWW.

Unlike traditional RGB, the Aputure MC isn’t just a light that relies on Red, Green, and Blue LEDs. By adding two additional white LEDs — one balanced at tungsten and a second at daylight — the Aputure MC is an impossibly small light that competes with industry giants.

mc

HSI/CCT/FX Lighting Modes.
The Aputure MC allows you to be more flexible in your filmmaking, providing you with multiple lighting modes to suit your needs. In addition to HSI Color Mode, the MC allows you to adjust your white light with CCT Mode, or use built-in lighting effects with FX Mode.

FX Modes.
In the MC’s FX mode, toggle between any of the MC’s nine built-in lighting effects presets to help you out in a pinch. If you need more control over your lighting effects, the Sidus Link app will allow you to adjust all of the effects’ parameters. Lighting effects include: Paparazzi, Fireworks, Faulty bulb, Lightning, TV, Pulsing, Fire, Party, Cop Car.

mc

Any Place. Any Time.

As part of our M-Series of mini LEDs, the 130g MC easily fits in the palm of your hand. With a footprint only slightly larger than a credit card and thickness of only 17mm (11/16 in.), the MC fits anywhere. The built-in magnets and 1-4″-20 screw mount allow you to place and use it in seconds. Use it as an on-camera light, or hide it off-screen for an app-controllable accent or fill light. With its lightweight, slim profile, you can tuck several MCs in your camera bag or pockets, so you’re always ready to go.

Sidus Link Control.

As the first RGBWW light to be compatible with the Sidus Link mobile app, the true abilities of both the light and the app are finally unlocked.

Sidus Link Control.

Sidus Mesh™.

The Sidus Mesh™ technology built into the MC, the backbone of the Sidus Link™ mobile app control, is perhaps the most advanced smart light technology yet. The proprietary Sidus Mesh™ system allows each light to communicate with each other and with the mobile app simultaneously. Each additional light increases the integrity of the network. This enables you to control lights within a 400-meter range, without the need for an external router, as long as there are lights at most 80 meters between each other.

With the current Sidus Mesh technology, you can control up to 100 lights in a stable network. Control a single light, or all of them simultaneously, from the Sidus Link mobile app for iOS and Android. Sidus Link allows for finer control of the light’s HSI, CCT, and FX functions by enabling additional control methods and parameters.

Sidus Mesh™.

Color Picker.

One of the most groundbreaking features of the Sidus Link app is the Color Picker function. With the Color Picker, you can simply point your phone’s camera at a color, capture it, and your light will reproduce it instantly. What you see is what you get. Just grab the color and start shooting!

mc

Enjoy Freedom from Cables.

The MC is compatible with the Qi wireless charging protocol, enabling it to be used with the majority of the wireless chargers on the market. Simply place it on a wireless charging pad and the MC will be ready when you need it.

mc

MC Charging Case.

The MC is also available in a 4-Light Travel Kit and 12-Light Production Kit. Each of these kits comes with a custom hardshell wireless charging case to protect and conveniently charge your MCs wherever you go. Make your workflow as efficient as possible.

The 4-Light Travel Kit was designed for guerilla and travel filmmakers, so you can slip the case into your camera bag or backpack while you’re on the move.

The 12-Light Production Kit was made for owner-operators and rental houses, including not only an accessory drawer built into the case, but also enough lights to pull off the unimaginable. Just plug in a D-Tap or power cable, and you’re ready to go.

mc

Ready for Any Challenge.

The MC is a light that is designed to be ready for any situation, whenever you need it. Offering multiple convenient power options, control methods, and mounting solutions, this fixture is truly the swiss army knife of light.
