- The Brand New Aputure Amaran 150c has just been released (along with the Amaran 300c), part of Aputure's budget lighting lineup. This thing is packed with features that will make it the perfect all-in-one light for most creators, TH-camrs, and videographers. I think this might be one of the best-selling and most popular lights of the year.

Great info. Great video! Thanks--this totally sealed the deal for me on picking up the 300w version.
Nice! You’ll love it
Great video!!! The production quality is great. I’m thinking about the 300 to go with my 200x’s and f21x
That’s an extremely useful review. I have a little godox litemon for some colour splash, but certainly a constant light like this would come in extremely useful for products photos and video
Killer review, Kyle! I’m on the market for a mid range full RGB light, mostly for product and accent lighting so this might be something to get. Thanks a millie for the insights
always happy to help!
On the hunt for a continuous light and have been told Aperture is the way to go. Thanks for the clear review 😊
Nice review, many thanks
As always, nice review! I like the lighting in your background, better than I like the one on you in this video. It feels a little bright and like it’s flattening you out. If I’m understanding correctly, the aperture amaran 150c is the one you’re using to light the background?
I ended up getting a goadox SL60 for my main key light a few years ago. That being said I was thinking about upgrading and I'm in between the 200 x and this one
Excellent video! RGB aside, would you recommend this over the Godox VL150/SL150 etc? I’m upgrading from cheap soft boxes soon and I had settled on the Godox but now wondering if the 150C/300C would be a better option.
love the video, very enlightening
EnLIGHTening?
Hi! Did you prefer 150 c or 200 x s? Thank you
How accurate is the color of the light compared to the nanlight fs 150?
What do you think of the Godox SZ150r vs this one?
Why you can’t use a vmount battery? Just get the cable xlr to dtap , what’s the problem?
hi ! So i'm wondering, is there a way to get an external power supply for this light ? like a generator ?
If yes, what would u recommand ? Thank you in advance
7:49 there is a battery powered option.
The Aputure 2-Bay gold mt. / V-mt. Battery add on for $180.
You’d think Aputure woulda told me that 😅
vs amaran 200xs ?? what's better ?
Full video and no measurement of the lux/ m?
this is freaking dope man, great video. I am surprised I haven’t found many other videos making a review on this yet,,, so I have a quick question, im a studio photographer, and I use the good ad200 as my main light and also as backlight with GELS.
I want to use video lights like these because I do product video work as well. so I want to minimize my gear as much as possible.
in your experience with the AMARAN 150c,, would you say that is enough for studio work for backlights individual portrait sessions? possibly grabbing 2 of the 150c,,
thanks man!
Definitely think having two of these for your kit would be great. Possibilities are endless and you have so much more flexibility vs gels
The question is how much power you need. For example with the Amaran 100 D S you get F3,5 with 1/125s and iso 100. So if you raise ISO up to 400 you get about F 5,6. If you need higher F values Flash is the better way or you need way stronger led lights.
Does 300c have built in effects ??
Nice Review!!
May I ask if you can test the faster electronic shutter to take pictures with the new Aputure amaran 150C or 300C, will there be flickering problems? 🙏
For example Aputure amaran 300C 30% or 60% output, while uses 1/800s, 1/1000s or 1/2000s electronic shutter
Because I have more than 20 different brands of LED lights, but only all Aputure amaran leds have the problem of flickering stripes when taking pictures with electronic shutters (such as 1/800s, 1/1000s, or 1/2000s electronic shutter, LED lights are low at 100% output), There is also a flickering problem when shooting high speed video!
Aputure amaran F22C will have flickering problem even at full power, Aputure amaran 200D will have flickering problem below 100%, there are more models...
And before only shooting with other brands never happened
I have also tested other brand models in detail, and I did not find the flickering stripes similar to Aputure:
Nanlite pavotube 30x 4800k 30% & 65% output
ZHIYUN MOLUS X100 5500k 30% & 65% output
Canon EOS R5 electronic shutter 1/250s to 1/8000s all shutters, including 1/250s and 1/8000s
Due to work, sometimes high-speed continuous shooting is required, but Canon R5 can only shoot 20 frames per second with the electronic shutter, and the mechanical shutter does not have the problem of flickering stripes, but the continuous shooting is only 12 frames per second
If Aputure amaran 150C & 300C is used to take pictures without flickering problem, it is indeed very attractive and the price is very affordable😍
I'd love to know if this is a problem with these also!
Do you shoot aerial sports?
9:11 I know where this white desk lamp is from :) Nice video!
is the 300C a solid keylight or do I stick with my Forza 300B ? I've looked up some output comparisons and the forza is at 68,000 lux while amaran 27,000 light , i have no idea wether thats near from accuratre or not
Do you need that extra power? If so stick w the Forza. Definitely more powerful
@@kylemeshna Thank you !!
If I want to take this on the go, is there a portable battery V-mount charger that can be attached?
Check out 7:48-7:55 he states there is no capability for v-mount option, unfortunately.
do you think it's enough output with a softbox for some slowmo B-Roll ?
Definitely
Hello! If I put a key light in a room with a lot of windows, do you think the 150c with the light mini dome SE could work, or would a light dome SE be better? Thanks
Depends what look you’re going for and how focused you want the key vs having some spill off
@@kylemeshna tks
This looks like a very capable light for a reasonable price. The Amaran line is great overall.
"before you click away to watch the latest Nelk video" 😂😂
Do you use a teleprompter for these videos?
I do yes!
Couldn't tell, but been considering getting one and was curious. What's the name of the one you use?
@@iambenlerner Glide Gear and then use an iPad with Prompt Smart Pro
@@kylemeshna thank you!
what microphone do you use on the boompole?
Shure SM7B
Will this be ok as key light for talking head or should I got with 200xS?
This will be great for a key light for talking head yes
Most content creators and filmmakers will easily always have extension cords and if you don't have extension cords then you shouldn't really be in content or filmmaking because that's like 101. You should have that on every single set. Multiple extension cords crates full. So this light is fine. You just hang it like you said and have an extension cord
can i use the 300c like key light for home studio?
Definitely!
thank you
what light stand would you use it with?
I use an impact rolling C stand in my office
what battery should we use in 150c?
Thank you for the video.
I can’t believe that you’re using a 300C as the key light at 15 percent. I have a 300c and at 1 percent it’s too bright for my front room! I’m definitely exchanging for the 150.
1%? What ISO and Aperture are you using? Hahahah
@@Francisfphoto_ iso 6400 f1.4
No battery powered options is a really big deal.
There is, it's just a $180 v-mount / gold-mount add on. Realistically though, reliable battery options once you get above 150w are gonna look pricey.
@@SimplestUsername it looks amazing. But once you get into that range with all the accessories for a on the go setup, it almost feels like you should just get one of the Aputure 300 series. Don’t get me wrong, for my podcast studio these would work great just being setup and leave. I love what the are doing with the Amaranth series for sure.
@@ronaldroberts9555 If you're considering this or the Amaran 300c for use as a primary key light then yeah, you're right. However if you're looking to use this as an RGB effect light in conjunction with the spotlight + gobo's then this thing is in a class on it's own..
If the spot and gobo doesn't matter to you then look into the Amaran p60c. They're fantastic lights that use Sony batteries.
@@SimplestUsername definitely makes sense! Thanks!
Finally what I am looking for without breaking my damn wallet
Haha exactly!
Great review but I find the meme cuts way too distracting. Your good enough to not use them. 😉
So I now have that light and I should say something… I have totally no complaints about the WW part, the power of the cool and warm light is respectful, but why does no one says about how unsaturated the RGB part of this light is? Compare it to any other light even from lower price range. The saturation of the RGB just simply disappointing…
At the risk of sounding obvious… have you set your saturation on the HSI settings? Cuz mine is not desaturated
One of the main reasons we can't save any money 😂
✌...
you should drop that silly antic in between clips. Rather irritating
They’re called titles.
So was this comment but… more
No don’t drop it I like it
Oh wait, you’re actually being serious. 🧐 dude it’s called being creative and adding some humor. Get a grip.
