Aputure Unveils Light Storm 60d and 60x Adjustable Focusing LED Lights

Aputure has announced two new adjustable focusing LED lights for its Light Storm series: the bi-color 60x and daylight-balanced 60d. Both models incorporate precision condenser lens optics capable of internally adjusting their beam angle from 15 to 45 degrees. Complementing the new lights is Aputure’s Spotlight Mini Zoom, a projection lens capable of adding a 2x optical zoom to the 60d and 60x.

Aputure LS 60x Bi-Color LED Light

The 60d produces 5500K light with a CRI of 95 and TLCI of 95. It is capable of outputting up to 50,000 lux at 1 meter when set to a 15-degree spot. For those requiring color temperature control, the 60x is adjustable between 2700K and 6500K and has a CRI of 95 and TLCI of 95. When set to a 15-degree spot, the 60x can output 30,000 lux at 1 meter. Both lights can be powered via an included AC adapter or DC battery input (via V-mount, or an included dual Sony-NP-F battery plate adapter). Whatever source of power you choose, it can be mounted on the side of the light’s 360-degree tilting yoke for easy access.
Both models include eight built-in effects: paparazzi, fireworks, lightning, faulty bulb, TV, pulsing, strobe, and explosion. The 60x also includes an effect for fire. A quiet 8 dB cooling fan minimizes audio interference to suit video applications. Both lights are IP54 weatherproof, so you can use them outdoors without fear. Barndoors are included with each light to manage spill, as well as a carrying case for protection and transport.
