amaran expands its LED monolight line with the S-series COB 60x S Bi-Color LED Monolight, adopting the quality of light and the compact and lightweight form of the previous COB 60x. Featuring an upgraded LED chipset design, this 65W fixture provides a variable 2700-6500K color temperature and ultra-high SSI score across the board for extremely accurate and improved color reproduction. This point-source video light has a surprising output of 33,300 lux at 3.3' when paired with the included mini hyper reflector. A variety of nine lighting effects are easily accessible to help you simulate different creative looks. This is a practical lighting solution for content creators and videographers looking for a portable and quiet light without sacrificing image quality.
Adjustments can be made locally on the unit with an intuitive LCD screen or wirelessly from a distance of up to 262' using your smartphone and the Sidus Link app. The 60x S offers extended power options and is ready for worldwide use thanks to its included 100 to 240 VAC power supply, but it can also run on separately available NP-F or D-Tap batteries for situations when AC current is unavailable. Equipped with a full-size Bowens mount and a stand adapter with an umbrella holder, you get great compatibility with a wide array of light modifiers. A carry bag is supplied as well for storage and on-the-go productions.
Detailed Color Fidelity System
The S series has improved spectral continuity to achieve the enhanced color quality of an ultra-high SSI (Tungsten) of 90 and (D56) of 87, a 17.5% increase in SSI from its predecessor. Impressive ratings of CRI 96, TLCI 97, CQS 95, TM-30 Rf 96, and TM-30 Rg 100 are your assurance of a high degree of accuracy in color reproduction at all times. Suitable for home studios or live stream setups, the significantly improved spectral quality of the 60x S will ensure accurate skin tone reproduction for your videos.
Powerful Output with Mini Hyper Reflector
The 60x S emits up to 2427 lux at a distance of 3.3' at 5600K. When equipped with the included mini hyper reflector, the light's output climbs to an impressive 33,300 lux. A soft diffusion cover is included for use with the reflector.
Preset Effects
The light has nine special effects, including paparazzi, fireworks, lightning, faulty bulb, TV, pulse, strobe, explosion, and fire.
Compact and Versatile
The amaran 60x S is as compact as a camera yet comes with full Bowens mount versatility. You can combine it with a large selection of optional modifiers, including the Light Box 45x45, Light Dome SE, Light Dome Mini II, and Aputure Lantern.
