Aputure Amaran 300c LED Video Light Review: Exceptional Lighting Quality and Versatility

For filmmakers and content creators, lighting is one of the most important aspects of their craft. And with the Aputure Amaran 300c LED video light, they can achieve exceptional lighting quality and versatility.

The Amaran 300c is Aputure's first-ever full-color 300W Bowens Mount point-source LED light, offering RGBWW full-color control, optical and soft light Bowens Mount versatility, integrated controls, and high-quality light output. It punches well above its weight class, providing an impressive 26,580 lux (5600K) using the included Hyper Reflector, combined with 0-100% dimming control.

One of the standout features of the Amaran 300c is its RGBWW technology. It uses the same foundational RGBWW technology as professional fixtures like the Aputure LS 600c Pro, providing stunning color quality throughout its expanded bi-color CCT range of 2,500K to 7,500K, with green-magenta adjustment and 360° HSI color control with >90% coverage of the Rec.2020 Color Space. It has high CRI/TLCI [95+], SSI (D56) [71], and SSI (Tungsten) [83] scores, allowing it to output color-accurate light to achieve faithful skin tones.

The Amaran 300c is also equipped with Sidus Mesh technology, allowing it to be controlled wirelessly. The Sidus Link App can help match colors perfectly with Color Picker and activate 9 System FX, including Party Lights, Cop Car, Paparazzi, Fireworks, Lightning, Faulty Bulb, TV, Explosion, Fire, Pulsing, and Strobe. It offers a hassle-free way to adjust and control the lighting from your smartphone or tablet.

The Amaran 300c features a universal Bowens Mount and color-blending optics, allowing users to magnify or diffuse its high-intensity output using a large variety of Bowens Mount modifiers, including optical modifiers like the Fresnel 2X and the brand-new Amaran Spotlight SE, and soft light modifiers like the all-new Amaran Light Dome Mini SE for producing even light.

The design of the Amaran 300c is another feature that sets it apart from other LED video lights. It features a minimalist control interface that blends into the body for a simple yet elegant lamp head design, removing the need for a control box. The dual rear-facing side handles and redesigned Bowens Mount release latch allow for ergonomic adjusting of the fixture wherever it is rigged. It's also equipped with a redesigned high-efficiency heat sink and silent active cooling system that doesn't produce any fan noise, allowing users to focus on choosing the perfect-colored light.

In conclusion, the Aputure Amaran 300c LED video light is an exceptional product that offers outstanding lighting quality and versatility for filmmakers and content creators. From its RGBWW technology and Sidus Mesh technology to its universal Bowens Mount and minimalist control interface, every aspect of the Amaran 300c is designed to help users achieve the perfect lighting for their projects.
