“Aputure didn’t just make it brighter—they made it smarter and ready for harsh conditions.”

Considerations Before Buying

  • Even with compact head design, total rig (head + control box + cables) adds weight—plan rigging accordingly.
  • While 700 W is high output, you’ll still need proper modifiers and accessories to shape the light effectively.
  • Ensure your power setup can handle draw (up to 850 W) on location or in studio environments.
