Aputure AL-MC LED light

Aputure AL-MC

The MC is the first light from Aputure to offer full color control for hue, saturation and intensity (HSI). With 360 ° hue and 100 levels of saturation adjustment, you can comfortably reproduce any color in your hand.

Outstanding color quality
As with all Aputure luminaires, the MC prides itself on its color rendering, with CRI and TLCI values of 96+ and SSI values of 84 in tungsten and 74 in daylight. This is all achieved through an underlying technology that reproduces colors better and more accurately than ever before: RGBWW.

Unlike conventional RGB, the Aputure MC is not just a luminaire based on red, green and blue LEDs. By adding two additional white LEDs - one in tungsten light and one in daylight - the Aputure MC is an incredibly small light that competes with industry giants.

HSI / CCT / FX Lighting Modes
With the Aputure MC, you can be more flexible in your filmmaking, with multiple lighting modes available to suit your needs. In addition to HSI color mode, the MC lets you adjust your white light in CCT mode or use built-in lighting effects in FX mode.

CCT lighting modes
The MC is the first mini LED from Aputure to offer fine CCT control. You can precisely select any color temperature in the MC's extended bicolor range between 3200K and 6500K in 100K increments to adapt to any situation.

FX lighting modes
Switch between the MC's nine preset lighting effects in FX mode to get an overview. If you need more control over your lighting effects, use the Sidus Link app to adjust all of the effects' parameters. Lighting effects include: Paparazzi, Fireworks, Broken Bulb, Flash, TV, Pulse, Fire, Party, and Police Car.

Anywhere, anytime
Part of our M series of mini LEDs, the 130g MC fits easily in the palm of your hand. With a footprint of just over a credit card and a thickness of only 17mm, the MC fits anywhere. With built-in magnets and 1-4"-20 screw mounting, you can place and use it in seconds. Use it as an on-camera light or place it in hard-to-reach places to add an app-controllable accent or fill light. With its lightweight, slim profile, you can slip multiple MCs into your camera bag or pocket so you're always ready to go.

App control
With the proprietary Sidus Mesh ™ system, each light can communicate with each other and the mobile app simultaneously. Each additional light increases the integrity of the network. This allows you to control lights within a 400 meter radius without the need for an external router, as long as the lights are 80 meters or less apart.

With the latest Sidus mesh technology, you can control up to 100 lights in a stable network. Control a single light or all at once using the Sidus Link mobile app for iOS and Android. Sidus Link enables more precise control of the luminaire's HSI, CCT and FX functions by enabling additional control methods and parameters.

One of the most groundbreaking features of the Sidus Link app is the color selector function. With the color selector, you can simply point your phone's camera at a color, capture it, and your light will instantly reproduce it.

Wireless charging
The MC is compatible with the Qi wireless charging protocol, so it can be used with most wireless chargers on the market.
