With Aputure's Chip-on-Board LEDs, experience the versatility and adaptability of lighting that can effortlessly switch between hard and soft light. The introduction of the Fresnel 2X and the Spotlight Mount has revolutionized the way we shape hard light. Now, it's time to reshape your soft light experience with the Aputure Lantern, our quickest soft light modifier to date. This spherical softbox, designed for filmmakers on the move, pops open in seconds, ensuring your lighting never slows you down. With the Aputure Lantern, you can generate soft, even light wherever your shoots take you. The Lantern's unique 26" spherical design allows it to distribute light from your LED or Studio Strobe in all directions, boasting a 270-degree beam angle. This innovative design enables you to fill an entire space with soft, even light from just a single light source, illuminating the entire room. In the world of cinematic depth, controlling your light is crucial. The Aputure Lantern stands out among spherical softboxes with its 4-section fully adjustable light control skirt. This feature, coupled with a hook-and-loop design, allows the removable skirts to attach in any position, offering quick and precise control over your soft light. You can easily roll the skirt up or down to flag off unwanted light. The Lantern's tension-based quick release design allows for setup or breakdown in just a few seconds, making it the ideal companion for run-and-gun filmmakers. Its durable and portable design, combined with the speed of setup, allows you to set up fewer lights, faster. Designed to fit any Bowens mount Studio Strobe or LED fixtures, such as our 120d or 300d series lights, the Aputure Lantern is the ultimate photo or video accessory for casting soft light over a wide area while maintaining control. Whether you're on a professional shoot or an impromptu filming session, the Lantern is ready to be thrown in the back of your car and light up your next project.
