Aputure STORM 700x – Powerful Precision Lighting for Film and Broadcast
The Aputure STORM 700x is a high-output 700W point-source LED fixture that combines extreme brightness, advanced color control, and a weather-resistant IP65-rated design. Built for cinematographers, gaffers, and professional photographers, the STORM 700x delivers exceptional output and color accuracy in a compact and reliable form factor. Featuring Aputure’s proprietary BLAIR LED chipset (Blue, Lime, Amber, Indigo, Red), it offers full-spectrum color reproduction and a tunable CCT range from 2500K to 10,000K with full ±G green/magenta adjustment.
Unmatched Output and Color Fidelity
Powered by a 700W COB engine, the STORM 700x produces an impressive 16,730 lux at 3 meters (5600K) with the included 35° reflector. It achieves industry-leading color accuracy with CRI ≥95, TLCI ≥95, and SSI 87 (Tungsten and D56). With over 70% Rec.2020 color gamut coverage and ultra-smooth dimming from 0.1–100%, it ensures consistent, flicker-free performance for film, TV, and commercial shoots.
Advanced Control and Workflow Integration
The STORM 700x integrates seamlessly into modern lighting ecosystems with full support for Sidus Link® and Sidus Link Pro® apps, LumenRadio CRMX, and 16-bit 5-Pin DMX512 in/out. Wireless connectivity extends up to 100 meters, and firmware updates can be applied directly via USB-A or Sidus Link batch updates. Choose between operational modes such as Max Output, Constant Output, High-Speed, Lead-Follow, and Studio Mode to adapt to any production workflow.
Engineered for Professional Durability
Built with an IP65-rated aluminum housing, the STORM 700x withstands dust, rain, and extreme environments (−20°C to +45°C). The fixture includes Aputure’s ProLock Bowens Mount for secure attachment and optical alignment of modifiers, even when using heavy accessories. A sophisticated cooling system offers four fan modes — Smart, High, Medium, and Silent (0 dBA) — allowing for noise-free operation on sound-sensitive sets.
Precision Lighting Control
Designed to meet the needs of professional lighting setups, the STORM 700x features four dimming curves (Linear, Logarithmic, Exponential, and S-Curve) and nine built-in lighting effects, including Paparazzi, Fireworks, Flickering Bulb, Cannon, Lightning, TV, Pulse, Flash, and Flame. With 10 user presets and over 12 DMX control profiles, it’s a fully customizable powerhouse for creative lighting design.
