Aputure presents two new additions to our panel lineup. Build your sunbeam with the NOVA 9° 2x1, a hyper narrow beam panel with an Extended BLAIR light engine, ideal for throwing direct white light over great distances with pleasing, hard shadows. The NOVA 9° 2x1 3-Light Kit combines three panels in an array with a shallow footprint, with more output than a 12k tungsten lamp.
The NOVA II 1x1 reinvents the 1x1 panel form factor, with the color performance of the BLAIR-CG light engine and more output than most 2x1 panels. NOVA 9° and NOVA II panels share an accessory ecosystem and a structural design that achieves three goals normally at odds: low noise, low weight, and IP65 weather protection.

Meet the Aputure STORM 700x, your new favorite light. The STORM 700x brings the next generation BLAIR light engine to a popular and essential form factor used by on-the-go videographers, rental houses, and every type of production in between. With the included reflector, STORM 700x is more than 3x brighter at 3 meters than the LS 600x Pro, while remaining small and light enough to mount on a baby stand.
The BLAIR (Blue/Lime/Amber/Indigo/Red) light engine delivers the highest quality white light and greatest +/- green adjustability of any LED technology, and the engine’s indigo emitters enhance fluorescing materials like natural daylight and tungsten sources. The BLAIR light engine can also output saturated colors across more than 70% of Rec.2020 color space using Limited HSIC+ and x,y control modes.
The Aputure STORM family offers tunable white point source lamps with BLAIR light engines, and tunable color point source lamps with BLAIR-CG light engines. Innovative features and rugged build quality make the STORM family the most complete line of professional point source LED lights ever.

Aputure reinvents the panel. Introducing the NOVA II 2x1, the first panel light to utilize the breakthrough BLAIR-CG light engine and the first fixture in the NOVA II family. NOVA II 2x1 casts high fidelity white light and rich colors never before seen in a panel, more than 90% of the Rec.2020 color gamut. The unique “focus-then-blend” optical formula maintains brightness when used both direct and diffused. You also don’t have to compromise: the structural design of the NOVA II allows it to achieve three goals normally at odds: low noise, low weight, and IP65 weather protection.

Cinematographer Tom Shaw (@tomxshaw ) has mastered the art of high-stakes corporate work by staying mobile and keeping his lighting kit versatile. We sat down with him to discuss how he approaches a new space, identifies "helpers and hindrances," and builds a kit that can overpower the sun without a massive crew.

No rain. No lighting. So we built both. 🌧️
We were able to pre plan this entire lighting setup using the new 3D Visualizer by @diagram_master@sidus.link using Sidus Link Pro. Download the app and check it out!
Nighttime rain scene essentials:
STORM 1000c — soft moonlight
STORM 1200x — rain backlight
STORM 400x — second actor backlight
STORM 80c (x3) — warm background motivation

Moonlight. Rain. Backlight.
