Storm warning as Aputure’s 400x breaks cover

Aputure has released the Storm 400x, the latest addition to the Storm series of point source LED lights. It features Aputure’s BLAIR light engine, which delivers tunable white light quality with a wide 2500K-10,000K CCT range as well as the greatest CCT and full ASC MITC range +/- green adjustment.

The Storm 400x is capable of putting out saturated colours across more than 70% of the Rec.2020 colour space, controllable in limited HSIC+ and x,y modes. The Storm 400x is surprisingly bright, with an output matching or exceeding many 500W and 600W-level COB lights.

The Storm 400x also shares the Storm family’s industry-leading build and functionality, including extreme low-end dimming, IP65 rating, professional connectivity and the ProLock Locking Bowens Mount for securely attaching modifiers with perfect optical alignment.

Optimised for the Storm 400x, the CF7 Fresnel and Barn Doors Kit is a 7-inch Bowens Mount fresnel with included 8-leaf barn doors. Its beam range adjusts from 15º to 40º while maintaining a compact profile. The dual-expanding focusing system with multiple lens elements drastically reduces size and weight without compromising optical performance. UK prices have not yet been set but in Europe the Storm 400x is €1,050 (excluding VAT) and the CF7 Fresnel and Barn Doors Kit is €199 (excluding VAT).
