Aputure Amaran COB 60X S LED Video Light

My Go-To Key Light

The Aputure Amaran COB 60x S has been my main light for a while now, and it is an absolute workhorse for video production. If you are shooting indoors, setting up a home studio, or working in small spaces, this light punches way above its weight class.

Small Form Factor, Massive Output

Despite its incredibly compact size, this 60-watt light is remarkably powerful. It provides more than enough output to light up a subject beautifully in a standard-sized room. Because it is the “x” model, it is bi-color, meaning you can dial in the exact color temperature you need—whether you are matching the warm glow of a desk lamp or the cool daylight coming through a window. The upgraded “S” series also features an all-new dual-blue LED chipset, meaning the color accuracy and skin tones look absolutely phenomenal on camera.

Ultimate Modifier Compatibility

One of the best things about this light is that it features a standard full-size Bowens mount. I almost always pair mine with a softbox. Because of the Bowens mount, you aren’t locked into proprietary modifiers; you can attach virtually any softbox, lantern, or reflector on the market to easily shape and soften the light exactly how you want it.

Perfect for Creators on the Go

This light was designed with portability and ease of use in mind:

• Sidus Link App: Like all modern Aputure and Amaran lights, you can control the brightness, color temperature, and lighting effects directly from your phone using the Sidus Link app. This saves you from having to walk over to the light to make minor adjustments.
• Power Options: While it comes with a standard AC power supply, it also includes a dual NP-F battery plate. This means you can run this light entirely off camera batteries, making it perfect for on-location shoots where you don’t have access to a wall outlet.
• Ultra-Lightweight: It is so light and compact that it can be packed into a regular backpack or mounted on lightweight, travel-friendly light stands without worrying about it tipping over.

If you need a reliable, professional, and portable lighting solution for YouTube videos, interviews, or talking-head client work, the Amaran 60x S is an unbeatable value.
