Description

Lightweight & Pocketable Size

The Aputure MC Pro is a 5W RGBWW mini LED panel light designed for professionals, featuring LumenRadio CRMX and a rugged IP65 construction. It is an upgraded version of the original Aputure MC, maintaining a compact, credit card-sized form factor while packing in a comprehensive suite of professional functionalities.


Mounting: 1⁄4-20in Screw Mount & Rear-Mounted Neodymium Magnets

Multiple Mounting and Control Options

The MC Pro offers various magnetic mounting solutions and accessories, as well as wireless control methods such as Sidus Link and LumenRadio CRMX. With these features, the MC Pro can be placed and operated virtually anywhere, making it a versatile lighting fixture for any situation.


Magnetic Accessory Mounts: Flat Diffuser, Dome Diffuser, & 30º Light Control Grid

Updated Optical Design is Brighter Than Ever

The upgraded optical design and LED chipset of the MC Pro allow it to output 1,585 lux at 0.5m at 5,600K, achieved by narrowing the beam angle to 45° for increased intensity and throw. Magnetic accessories such as a 30° Light Control Grid or diffusers can also be used to control or diffuse the light.


2,000K to 10,000K CCT with Green-Magenta Adjustment

Wider Color Range and More Accuracy

The chipset in the MC Pro provides expanded color controls and CCT range from 2,000K to 10,000K with green-magenta adjustment. It can reproduce more than 90% of all colors within the Rec. 2020 color space and produce faithful skin tones with a CRI/TLCI score of 96, SSI (D56) of 72, and SSI (Tungsten) of 82, consistent with Aputure's high color accuracy standards across all product lines.


Advanced HSI with White Point CCT Control

Advanced Controls and Customizations

For full creative freedom, filmmakers can fine-tune the MC Pro's color using advanced HSI with white-point adjustability, RGB, GEL, or xy controls. The MC Pro also comes with 15 built-in System FX and other advanced features unique to the Aputure and amaran ecosystems, including Sidus Pro FX such as Picker FX and Music FX, which can be saved using the Sidus Link app for easy access to different lighting modes.

The MC Pro can be controlled using its new TFT color display or any of its professional remote options such as LumenRadio CRMX, wired DMX/RDM1, or Sidus Link. Operating this light feels seamless even in the most demanding conditions.
