Aputure LS 300x Two Light kit w/ Softboxes

Light Storm 300x
Redefining Flexibility

The Light Storm 300x is Aputure’s latest point-source LED and is the first bi-colour Bowens mount light fixture to be compatible with optical lens modifiers. By combining the latest optical colour blending technology with Aputure’s dual-colour LED chipset, the LS 300x can utilize the Fresnel 2X and Spotlight Mount to give you unprecedented flexibility from a single fixture. With a simple turn of a dial or press of a button, you can adjust the fixture’s white light CCT output between 2700K-6500K in just seconds. And utilizing the same robust lamp head and control box design as the 300d II, this light is built to handle any filmmaking challenge.

Key Features:

• Bi-Colour Bowens Mount Point Source (2700K-6500K)
• Compatible with Optical Lens Modifiers
• All-in-One Control Box
• Sidus Link App Controllable
• Single Battery Operating (50% Output)

The First of Its Kind

Multiple Control Methods

The Light Storm product line is all about flexibility, and the 300x continues to support this by being compatible with multiple control methods. In addition to the control wheels, the 300x can be controlled using Aputure’s tried and true 2.4G RF Remote, DMX512, as well as by the Bluetooth Mesh Sidus Link App. With the added range you get from having multiple Sidus Link lights active, you can control all of your lights’ settings from nearly anywhere on set. And with professional DMX512 compatibility, the 300x allows for control through several channels so you can precisely fine-tune your lighting setup.

Flexible Bi-Colour Range

Built-in Effects

The 300x also launches with 9 built-in lighting FX, such as, “Paparazzi,” “Fireworks,” “Lightning,” “Faulty Bulb,” “TV,” “Pulsing,” “Strobe,” “Explosion,” and “Fire,” all with adjustable colour temperature, opening up new possibilities for precise lighting control on your film sets. The 300x’s capabilities will always continue to grow with firmware upgrades to both the fixture and the Sidus Link ecosystem in the future.

Bowens Mount Modularity

Not to be taken lightly, the 300x continues Aputure’s tradition of being compatible with the Bowens-S Mount, offering a wide variety of both soft light and optical modifiers to choose from, making it a unique bi-colour fixture. With the Bowens Mount, you can flexibly change the quality of your light source in seconds. Whether you want a punchy hard light with crisp shadows or a pleasing soft light, never sacrifice output or colour quality. The 300x’s Bowens Mount can even be used with other industry-standard modifiers from brands like Chimera, as long as you have a Bowens mount speed ring.

Dual Output Modes

The 300x even features two output modes: Max Output and Constant Output mode. In Constant Output mode, you can change your CCT precisely while maintaining a consistent luminance level. Combined with a new, smoother dimming system, you even gain the ability to seamlessly shift your colour temperature in the middle of a scene. In Max Output mode, however, the 300x will always maximize your output for your CCT and dimming level, with the highest output range being 4000K-5500K. With these two modes, you can do everything from overpowering existing light to tackling precise problems.

The Sidus Link Ecosystem

With the integration of the Sidus Mesh chipset, the 300x gives you professional lighting control from a single app. This mesh technology extends across the entire future Aputure product line, creating an ecosystem you can trust. With the Sidus Link Mesh Network created by Aputure products, such as the 300x, 300d II, and MC, you can control up to 100 fixtures from your smartphone or tablet, with each additional light fixture increasing the range of the network. That means every light not only talks to your phone but also to each other, creating a smarter ecosystem. Sidus Link allows you to control every aspect of your light’s output, including luminance, CCT, Effects, and even Light Source presets for fast-paced situations. 

With its immense flexibility, the 300x becomes an incredibly powerful light, whether you are working on a large film set, or you’re a solo guerilla filmmaker. Meet the latest member of the Aputure Light Storm family.
