Compact Light Source for the Demanding

The Aputure MC Pro LED light is an upgraded version of the filmmakers' acclaimed RGBWW LED panel. Underneath this small aluminum casing, it hides huge capabilities. It’s a sturdy design measuring 10.8 x 7 x 2.5 cm and meets the IP65 standard. This means that it is fully resistant to dust and water spray.

Now you can enjoy full control of your lighting in a pocket-sized variant. This inconspicuous little guy will meet the demands of even the most demanding professionals.

Even More Power

The Aputure MC Pro LED lamp is equipped with specially designed optics, featuring a narrower angle of light (45). This design strikes the perfect balance between quality and performance. As a result, the MC Pro creates a clearer and more concentrated light, which is ideal for professional film and photography applications. The lamp will generate a beam of 1585 lux, from a distance of 0.5 m and at a color temperature of 5600K. Thus, the MC Pro model offers 4 times more brightness than its older sister, the Aputure MC!

Light Quality at the Highest Level

You’ll be hard-pressed to find another lamp this small that offers such advanced technology. The Aputure MC Pro is equipped with the same RGBWW chip as the flagship Nova P600c. The unit offers a wide range of color temperature adjustment (from 2000 K to 10000 K), while guaranteeing excellent color fidelity. This is confirmed by CRI and TLCI scores of 96, SSI (D56) of 72, and SSI (Tungsten) of 82. The Aputure MC Pro mini light panel also provides a wide range of color control, within 3 color spaces HSI, RGB, and XY. There are also 300 ready-made gel filter simulations on board, and 15 built-in special effects (including paparazzi, explosion, fireworks, and party).

However, this is not the end of the MC Pro model’s capabilities. Thanks to built-in neodymium magnets and metal adhesive plates, the pocket lamp can be installed almost anywhere!

Advanced Control Functions

The Aputure MC Pro LED lamp is not only the ability to control the device from the control panel and the free Sidus Link app (range up to 80 meters).
