Product Information

Still, fixing fan noise is an extra step that I’d rather not deal with. Don’t get me wrong, the fan is necessary. The light would overheat without it, but I’d have liked a way to adjust fan curves, instead of having the fan turn on immediately. To be fair, that’s asking a lot from a product at this price point. Considering everything else it offers, I can live with fan noise. Battery Adapter Weight Upgraded High SSI LED Design: SSI (Tungsten): 90+, SSI (D56): 87+ Significantly Improved Spectral Continuity and Light Quality As with most bi-color lights, output decreases for the flexibility of having the 2700K to 6500k option. Below are the stated output readings provided by Aputure. The new mini reflector being much smaller has a new design with three extended arms to attach to the Bownes Mount. Hopefully, other versions with a wider spread will be available. The bare bulb without the reflector has a 120° beam angle.

Because I could work around it, it’s more of a hassle than an actual problem. I also don’t plan on using the light without the softbox diffuser, so It’s unlikely I’ll experience it often. Though, if you plan on using the reflector or a lighter diffuser, this could be more of an issue for you. In addition to the included AC Power supply, The fixtures can be powered using the included Dual Sony NP-F Battery Plate, or a D-Tap Battery (cable sold separately), which attaches to the V-Mount plate located on the side of the light. No Gold Mount option is avavaible. With a color temperature range of 2700K-6500K, you can use the light for warm and cool lighting, giving you a lot more value for your money. When set to 5600K (daylight) and used with the included reflector attachment, the COB 60x can output 35,700 lux from a 1m distance. The light is rated as having a CRI (Color Rendering Index) of 96, meaning it can accurately portray the color of illuminated objects — CRI tops out at 100, so 96 is quite good. The COB 60x’s display lists the current color temperature and brightness, which can be adjusted via the knob or the Bluetooth app. Aputure เปิดตัว Amaran 60d และ Amaran 60x ไฟต่อเนื่องน้องใหม่ ที่มาพร้อมขนาดตัวเล็กและกะทัดรัด เหมาะกับการพกพาไปใช้งานนอกสถานที่ โดยไฟ Amaran 60 series เป็นไฟ LED (Chip On Board) ที่ให้กำลังไฟขนาด 65W (ใช้พลังงานสูงสุด 76W) และยังรองรับการทำงานร่วมกับ NP-F หรือ V-Mount แบตเตอรี่ อีกทั้งยังให้คุณภาพแสงที่มีความเที่ยงตรงสูง โดยมีค่า CRI / TLCI สูงถึง 96+ พร้อมพัดลมระบายร้อนในตัวที่ช่วยเพิ่มการทำงานอย่างต่อเนื่องได้ยาวนาน The tradeoff is that the 60d has a higher maximum brightness. For my use case, though, the COB 60x’s color temperature range is very much worth the extra.Aputure รุ่น Amaran 60 series เปิดตัวมาพร้อมกันถึง 2 รุ่น เริ่มจากตัวแรก Amaran 60d ไฟต่อเนื่อง Daylight ที่ให้อุณหภูมิสี 5600K และให้ความสว่างสูงถึง 45,100 lux เมื่อใช้ร่วมกับ Hyper Reflector (Mini) ที่ระยะ 1 เมตร จึงเหมาะกับการทำงานเป็นไฟ Fill Light ทั้งในและนอกสถานที่ ด้วยขนาดตัวเมื่อเทียบกับไฟที่ให้กำลังไฟและความสว่างเท่ากัน Amaran 60d จึงเป็นไฟที่มีขนาดกะทัดรัดและน่าใช้สุดๆ Amaran 60D Aputure announced a few months ago that they are going to expand the budget-friendly amaran light fixture line-up. Aputure has been focusing on their current lighting products to be robust with better build quality and higher outputs, such as the NOVA P600c and Light Storm 1200d Pro. Both fixtures have 65 watts of output from a COB (Chip On Board) LED cluster. The fixture itself, without reflector or mount, only weighs 675g / 1.49lbs. With the power supply, mounting pin added, it comes in at 2.060kg / 4.54lbs. The fixture doesn’t have a yoke. Instead, it uses a 1⁄4-20in Mounting Pin with Stand Adapter. What’s Included In Each Kit ITEM Since the amaran 60x/60d both have a full-size Bowens Mount, the fixtures are compatible with a large selection of modifiers on the market, including the Aputure Light Dome SE, Light Dome Mini II, and Aputure Lantern, making it versatile. amaran COB 60x I had to shoot the second part twice because I underestimated how powerful the COB 60x is. At 80% brightness, it proved too bright, resulting in the footage being blown out everywhere. It looked much better when I reshot it at 50% brightness, though I still had to tone down the highlights slightly.

There’s hardly anything negative to say about this product. I didn’t encounter anything that put me off completely, which is a testament to Aputure’s design. But there were a couple of small things I should mention. The cooling fan is one of them, and the battery functionality is another. The app experience was also an issue, though to a smaller extent. Fan NoiseThe amaran 60d/60x comes with a Hyper Reflector (Mini) that Aputure states are specially designed with a 15° Beam Angle. This is a pretty tight degree however the light is very compact, and the reflector is much smaller than the more common you see on the Light Storm 120 through 600 series. What feels like a first the amaran 60d/60x lights don’t include a remote; however, the lights are fully compatible with Sidus Link. The COB 60d and 60x feature an LCD display and offer stepless dimming from 0 to 100 percent. In addition, both fixtures have a range of built-in lighting effects: paparazzi, fireworks, lightning, faulty bulb, TV, pulsing, strobe and explosion. The bi-color 60x also adds a fire effect to that list.
