The image above shows the view you’ll get of the placement of the LED diodes. You’ll notice the “c” version also has a small piece of plastic diffusion over the light that doubles as a light protector, while the “x” version is clear. This stand adapter with umbrella holder seems to be a holdover from the days of the Aputure amaran Tri-8, and there’s some room for improvement here given just how fantastic the ballast stand adapter is that ships with the LS 600d/x. Beyond the base 1/4″- 20 threads, there are also threads on the side of the fixture for additional mounting options. I would personally prefer a yoke mount for this type of light. It does work, but I’m a little worried that over time, I’ll strip the 1/4″-20 threads at the base of the fixture. There’s also a hinge stand mount included that allows for basic tilting on a C-Stand or light stand. I’m being picky about the accessories here, but at $349, I would expect both these fixtures to not include any accessories at all, and the fact that we get a variety feels like a bonus. The soft box itself does work to soften the light, breaks down quickly, and the four hinges that allow it to pop up (a potential failure point) don’t seem flimsy at all. Oddly, the included soft case doesn’t have room for the grid to fit and will require another case to transport. That is, as long as Aputure continues to support more “pro” folks with their Nova P600c and LS1200.Īt $349 for the P60c, you’re getting a fairly complete kit that includes grid, soft case, stand mount, power cables (not D-Tap), and a basic softbox (one built-in diffusion option).

So, for me, the trend towards innovation in their lower-cost amaran series is a welcome move. The amaran P60c isn’t the first low-cost color-capable light aimed at filmmakers on the market, but it is a first in terms of form factor from a brand that I’ve grown to trust since their MK 2 generation of fixtures started hitting the market a few years back.

In that latter feature department, there’s much to like here.

Honestly, I don’t drop (knock on wood) or even rent my lights out that much so, for me, I’m not too worried about the build quality of the amaran series and feature set. The plastic build of both the P60c and the P60x and power consumption by the more affordable NP-F batteries reflect that design philosophy. It’s meant for at-home content creators, students, and one-person bands or filmmakers traveling light on a budget. The amaran series isn’t intended to garner a hefty kit fee or become a rental item, and that’s just fine. Or, an item might be of such low cost that in some minds, it just can’t be as good as a more expensive product. Perhaps a given product isn’t high enough cost to justify the day-rate fee for the owner, or maybe there are just better alternatives well ingrained into the rental system in your particular media market. There’s absolutely a stigma around budget options in filmmaking. So, when approaching this review, I was already curious about the budget category for a brand like Aputure that, along with their Light Storm and Nova product lines, I consider budget-conscious alternatives. In my mind, for better or worse, the Aputure brand has always been on the more affordable side when compared to other older industry staples like ARRI or Litepanels. There are always tradeoffs for lower-cost products –especially in the lighting category– so do the P60c and x fixtures nail that delicate balance between cost and performance?
