Aputure Releases 2 Storm Fixtures, CF7, Spotlight Mini
The company has also announced the Nova II panel light, which is on the horizon.
Aputure has released the Storm 400x point-source fixture; the CF7 Fresnel with Barn Doors Kit; the Storm Parallel Beam 70; and the Spotlight Mini accessory for the Storm 80c.
The Storm 400x features the Blair light engine, which delivers a 2,500-10,000K CCT range as well as full ASC MITC range +/- Green adjustment. The solution can output saturated colors across more than 70 percent of the Rec.2020 color space, controllable in Limited HSIC+ and x,y modes. Like the rest of the Storm line, it offers extreme low-end dimming, an IP65 rating, professional connectivity and a ProLock Locking Bowens Mount.
Optimized for the 400x, the CF7 Fresnel and Barn Doors Kit is a 7" Bowens Mount Fresnel with included eight-leaf barn doors. Its beam range adjusts from 15 to 40 degrees. The dual-expanding focusing system with multiple lens elements reduces size and weight without compromising optical performance.
The Storm Parallel Beam 70 is a 28"-diameter true Cassegrain mirror system optimized for the Storm XT52. The optical design delivers a 5-degree beam of coalesced light that can be used directly without distorted shadows. The solution is optimized for peak efficiency at distances of 33' or more.
The Spotlight Mini is a compact, ellipsoidal projector that transforms the Storm 80c into a light-shaping tool capable of creating controlled beams. Its rotating barrel allows for the granular orientation of both the integrated four-leaf cutter and modifiers. It comes with a 19-degree or 36-degree lens, and there is room in the soft case for both lenses. An adjustable iris is available as an optional accessory.
The Aputure Storm 400x lists for $1,059; the CF7 Fresnel and Barn Doors Kit lists for $199; the Storm Parallel Beam 70 lists for $2,250; and the Spotlight Mini lists for $349.
Aputure has also announced the Nova II, the first panel light to utilize the Blair-CG light engine. The company will preview the solution at IBC next month.
