Aputure Nova P300c 300W RGBW LED Soft Light Panel

Soft, bright light with expansive CCT:

The Aputure Nova P300c is a 300W panel with incredible versatility. The panel produces full, soft light without any harsh edges in a 120-degree angle. The P300c is capable of outputting 9000lux from one meter, while still keeping the light soft. The new RGBWW LED light combines two different white LEDs — tungsten white and daylight white. The combination of the two white LEDs give the P300c a color temperature, or CCT, range of 2,000K to 10,000K so creators can quickly change from a warm sunset to a cool midday. To increase flexibility, users can precisely adjust brightness from 0 percent to 100 percent and use the P300c as a key light, fill light, etc.

All the colors you need:

Beyond an exceptional color temperature range, the new Aputure Nova P300c creates a broad set of colors. The RGB LEDs are able to reproduce more than 90 percent of colors from the Rec. 2020 color space. If users want to mimic a color they have used on another set, or want to recreate the color from their Nova P300c, they can use the industry-standard X,Y value for color matching. 

Creators have the ability to change the hue, saturation, and intensity of the color and even adjust the tint of the green-magenta balance. If you can’t find the exact look you’re searching for, the Nova has more than 300 gel presets from both Lee and Rosco to choose from. To satisfy your creative side, the P300c has 15 built-in lighting effects including cop light, paparazzi, lightning, and more.

NOVA P300c | Pre-Orders Now Available

Efficient, easy-to-use design:

The Nova P300c is Aputure’s most versatile unit. The sturdy frame has a built-in ballast and weighs about 23 pounds. The panel comes with an extendable control box where all adjustments and settings take place. The control box has an LCD screen and turnable knobs to fine-tune the brightness, color balance, gel presets, etc. As mentioned, the control box is extendable so you have more freedom for setup and movement. The P300c can be powered through the main power supply or by external batteries. If you opt for external batteries, a couple 90Wh batteries will give you around 90 minutes of life.

Like other Aputure products, the P300c is compatible with the Sidus Link app to unlock more functionality.

The new Aputure Nova P300c is now available for preorder for at Adorama
