It has stellar CRI and TLCI scores of 95+ and 97+, and stepless dimming from 0 to 100%. An included folding X-frame stretches the mat to a rigid panel that can be attached directly to a C-stand grip head using the straight Baby Pin adapter, or onto any standard light stand with the included right angle Baby Pin and tilting stand mount. The included foldable softbox has two strengths of diffusion, and a fabric grid that uses an integrated hook-and-loop fabric to instantly turn this flexible mat into an ultrathin soft light that will add beautifully controlled soft light to a scene.
The control box is a multi-voltage AC power supply that features a V-mount battery plate for use with compatible 14.4V, 26V, or 28.8V batteries. Full output can be achieved when using the AC power supply, using batteries allows the F21c to be used at either half or full power, depending on battery strength.
The free Sidus Link app makes it possible to utilize tools unique to the Aputure and amaran ecosystems, such as Source Match, Color Picker, and Custom FX. The F21c can also be controlled using DMX with a separately available USB-C to 5-Pin DMX512 in & out adapter cable, adding professional-level control to an individual unit or groups of lights. The amaran F21c is ideal for videographers who need a versatile and literally flexible lighting solution. The RGBWW flexible panel gives users unmatched strength and control over a wide, expanded CCT range to match a variety of white light environments.

The Amaran F21c – V-mount is a 60cm by 30cm flexible light mat that is a great alternative to heavy LED panels enclosed in large housings. It is the ideal choice for working in tight and hard-to-reach areas. The unit is 5mm thick and weighs just 440g. You will install it anywhere with tape, Velcro or zip ties. The maximum output power of the lamp is up to 100 W. The innovative RGBWW LEDs will allow you to work with coloured light (HSI palette) and adjust the colour temperature (2500 K – 7500 K). The expandable X-Frame bracket will allow the lamp to be connected to professional tripods and mounts. The kit also does not lack a softbox, grid, power supply and transport case.
There are film sets where limited space makes working with light significantly more difficult. This is when the Amaran F21c LED lamp comes into action! You can install this flexible light mat measuring 60 by 30 cm wherever there is no room for large tripods. Stick it to the ceiling with tape, use cable ties, attach it with clamps at a convenient location or combine it with “magic arm” holders. At 5 mm thick and 440 g in weight, it will give you the ultra-mobility that traditional LED panels enclosed in heavy housings do not offer.
The use of a state-of-the-art RGBWW circuit allows the colour of the light to vary freely within the HSI colour space. Adjustment of intensity, hue and saturation will provide you with thousands of possible combinations of settings. To ensure that the light colour is perfectly matched to your needs, the manufacturer has also included a green and magenta glow adjustment function. There is also a simulation of gel filters (GEL). You no longer need to buy coloured foils – with the Amaran F21c lamp they will be replaced by modern technology!
The innovative light mat is not only ultra-mobile and conveniently mounted, but also offers exceptional performance. The maximum output power here is up to 100 W. The light intensity without additional modifiers is a maximum of 12150 lux (at a distance of 0.5 m). The device is distinguished by the high quality of the modern LEDs. This is best confirmed by indicators such as CRI: ≥95, TLCI: ≥98, CQS: ≥96, SSI (Tungsten): ≥83 and SSI (D56): ≥73.
When you use the Amaran F21c – V-mount LED lamp, with just a turn of a dial or a few clicks on the mobile app, you can quickly set the right light colour temperature, ranging from 2500 K to 7500 K. Do you want to create a pleasant focal camping atmosphere? Or do you want your shot to emphasise the coolness of a cloudy day? Thanks to the wide adjustment range, you will not only find it easier to match colours, but you will also learn to think creatively about warm and cool colours in film and photography!
In the kit with the Amaran F21c LED lamp – V-mount you will find modifiers to soften the light, disperse harsh shadows and direct the beam accordingly if necessary. You can use one or two diffusion fabrics ( -0.5 EV and -2.5 EV ) or reach for a “honeycomb” (45° grid). Thanks to Velcro fasteners you can conveniently install each modifier inside the softbox.
Included with the Amaran F21c LED Lamp – V-mount you will find a foldable X-Frame mount, which will provide the right rigidity for the panel when working with light modifiers or tripods. You will successfully combine it with popular mounting studs, as well as with an articulated adapter, which will allow you to direct the light at the right angle.
Among the innovations offered by the Amaran LED F21c – V-mount lamp, there is no shortage of a set of unique special effects. Spectacular combinations of flashes and changing colours will allow you to use such simulations as a music club, paparazzi, thunderstorm, TV, candle, campfire, strobe, explosion, broken bulb, pulsating, welding, radio car, ‘penetrating’ light, party and fireworks. You can customise each effect by changing the individual parameters from the built-in screen or the Sidus Link app.
The included external Control Box controller to control the lamp weighs just 1.2 kg. The slim box is sure to appeal to those who appreciate minimalism and ergonomics. It features a bright OLED display and easy-to-use buttons and dials. On its casing, you will find a quick-mount plate with which you can connect the Lighting Clamp. There is also a metal cable allowing you to safely hang the controller in the desired location.
Included with the Amaran F21c – V-mount LED light you will find a traditional power supply and a set of necessary cables. If you are planning to shoot in locations where there is no access to electrical sockets, nothing lost! You can connect an external rechargeable battery to the unit (to be purchased separately). The V-mount socket, which you will find on the controller, will keep things tidy on set and avoid unnecessary cable clutter. You will not only connect compatible batteries to it, but also the power supply, which is equipped with a suitable mounting plate.
The Amaran F21c – V-mount LED lamp is compatible with the Sidus Mesh system, which allows remote control via the Sidus Link app. You download it completely free from Google Play, App Store, Mi App Store or Huawei App Gallery. The app allows you to control a single light source as well as an entire setup of lighting equipment from the Aputure and Amaran brands. The remote control range is up to 80 metres!
Every film set is different. With the Amaran F21c – V-mount lamp, far fewer variables can surprise you! To ensure that you can work comfortably in different conditions, you can choose from 4 lighting power control curves:
These will allow you to adapt the lamp behaviour to your individual working style and current requirements.
On the case of the Control Box controller you will find a USB-C port, which will allow you to connect the device to a DMX512 control system using a suitable adapter. If you are using a control console to manage your lighting and stage effects, the Amaran F21c – V-mount LED lamp will be an excellent addition to such a set-up.
Convenient transport and safe storage of the lamp and accessories is made possible by the handy carrying case included in the kit. The compartments make removing and stowing the equipment even more convenient. The case is covered with a pleasant-to-touch material. Its thickness is only 10.5 cm, so that the ultra-mobile Amaran F21c – V-mount lamp will not take up much space in transport.
