Amaran, known for its expanding line of innovative lighting solutions, has introduced the compact amaran Ace 25x and amaran 25c LED lights.
Designed for creators on the go, these lights offer industry-leading brightness and battery life, making them ideal for travel vloggers, wedding videographers, and influencers who need professional lighting in a portable package.
The amaran Ace 25x (bi-color) and Ace 25c (full-color) deliver up to 32W of light output, providing double the brightness of similarly sized lights.
At a distance of 0.5 meters and a color temperature of 5,600K, the Ace 25x emits up to 6,320 lux, while the Ace 25c reaches up to 4,440 lux. The lights also enjoy a TLCI/CRI color accuracy rating of 95+.
In terms of battery performance, the Ace lights excel.
In Silent Mode, the lights emit a low maximum noise output of ≥28 dBA and can run for up to 4 hours and 40 minutes, while Standard Mode offers 70 minutes of runtime.
The fast recharge feature enables the lights to reach 90% capacity in just 40 minutes, minimizing downtime.
A standout feature of these new lights is the Ace Lock, a quick-release mounting system that allows users to attach the light to a camera or tripod in under a second.
This innovative system significantly speeds up the setup process, reducing setup time from eight seconds to just one when using the included Ace Lock to Cold Shoe Adapter.
The amaran Ace series also provides plenty of customization options. Both the 25x and 25c models come equipped with a user-friendly colored menu screen that simplifies navigation and enables users to set up custom shortcuts.
Filmmakers can save time by using custom shortcuts that make navigating complex interfaces easier. With just a double-click or a long press, they can quickly access frequently used settings like CCT, FX, and Boost Mode.
To enhance portability, Aputure offers a complete travel kit that includes a Light Control Grid, a Mini Tripod, and a Carrying Case.
Additionally, the Ace 25x and 25c feature an innovative reverse charging option, allowing them to function as portable power banks.
