Description

The Aputure LS 300X represents exceptional value in professional LED lighting, delivering powerful 300W output with full bi-colour temperature control in a compact versatile package. The variable colour temperature from warm 2700K through to cool 6500K allows you to match any ambient lighting - tungsten practicals, daylight windows, fluorescent offices - ensuring consistent colour temperature across your lighting setup without gels. We've used this light extensively in our own studio for interviews, product photography, and commercial work, and supplied it for location shoots requiring powerful controllable lighting. The combination of output, colour flexibility, and Bowens mount compatibility makes it remarkably versatile for various shooting scenarios.

What sets the LS 300X apart is the combination of power, flexibility, and practical design. The 300W output provides sufficient brightness for key lighting medium-sized subjects or strong fill light for larger setups, whilst the bi-colour control eliminates the need for colour correction gels - simply dial in the colour temperature to match your scene. The Bowens mount accepts the extensive Aputure modifier ecosystem including the F10 Fresnel for adjustable spot-to-flood control, Light Dome II and Light Dome Mini II for soft beauty lighting, Lantern (26") for omnidirectional space lighting, Spotlight Mount with 19° and 26° lenses for precise beam control, and various Bowens-compatible softboxes. The separate control unit keeps the light head compact and cool, extending LED lifespan whilst making overhead rigging more practical.

The included RC1+ wireless remote provides convenient control of both intensity and colour temperature without approaching the light, essential when lights are positioned overhead or at distance. The high CRI and TLCI ratings ensure accurate colour reproduction - skin tones look natural, products render true to colour, and footage maintains professional quality without colour correction issues in post-production. We provide the complete ready-to-shoot package including Hyper Reflector for focused output, professional lighting stand rated for the fixture weight, sandbag for stability, protective transport bag, and all necessary cables. Whether you're shooting interviews, commercial content, product photography, or narrative work requiring controllable professional lighting, the LS 300X delivers exceptional performance.

FAQs

How powerful is 300W compared to traditional lighting? The LS 300X output is approximately equivalent to a 1000W tungsten light whilst drawing only 300W power. This makes it practical for location shooting using standard household circuits without requiring generators, whilst still providing sufficient output for key lighting or strong fill applications in typical shooting scenarios.

What's the advantage of bi-colour over single-colour LEDs? Bi-colour allows you to adjust colour temperature from warm 2700K to cool 6500K, eliminating the need for colour correction gels. You can match tungsten practicals, daylight windows, or any ambient lighting simply by dialling in the appropriate colour temperature. This saves time, maintains full output without gel transmission loss, and ensures consistent colour across mixed lighting environments.

What modifiers are available?We offer Aputure modifiers as optional extras: F10 Fresnel for adjustable spot-to-flood control, Light Dome II (35") and Light Dome Mini II (21.5") for soft beauty lighting, Lantern (26") for omnidirectional fill, and Spotlight Mount with 19° and 26° lenses for precise beam control. Any Bowens mount modifier works with this light, providing enormous creative flexibility.

Can I use this on standard power outlets? Yes, the 300W power draw works perfectly on standard 13-amp household circuits. Unlike larger fixtures requiring dedicated circuits or generators, the LS 300X can be powered from any standard wall outlet, making it practical for location shooting in homes, offices, or venues without special electrical requirements.

How do I control the light remotely? The included RC1+ wireless remote allows you to adjust both intensity and colour temperature from distance without approaching the light. This is essential when lights are rigged overhead, positioned at distance, or when you're monitoring from camera position and need to adjust lighting without leaving the frame.

Is the colour rendering suitable for professional work? Yes, the high CRI and TLCI ratings ensure accurate colour reproduction suitable for broadcast and cinema work. Skin tones render naturally, products show true colour, and footage maintains professional quality without requiring extensive colour correction in post-production. The accurate colour rendering meets professional broadcast standards.

What's included in the complete kit? We provide everything needed for immediate shooting: LS 300X light head, control unit, Hyper Reflector for focused output, RC1+ wireless remote, frosted protective cover, professional lighting stand rated for the fixture, sandbag for stability, PowerCon to 13-amp power cable, and protective transport bag.
