The Aputure MC Pro is 5W RGBWW lensed mini LED panel light made for professionals – featuring LumenRadio CRMX and a durable IP65 construction. Based on the original Aputure MC, the MC Pro utilizes a similar compact, credit card-sized form factor while packing in a comprehensive suite of professional functionalities. With various magnetic mounting solutions & accessories and wireless control methods (Sidus Link & LumenRadio CRMX), the MC Pro shines as a fixture that can be placed and operated virtually anywhere.
Featuring an upgraded optical design and LED chipset, the MC Pro can output 1,585 lux at 0.5m at 5,600K. This is achieved by narrowing the beam angle to 45° for increased intensity and a further throw, which can then be controlled or diffused using the included magnetic accessories, such as a 30° Light Control Grid or diffusers.
The upgraded LED design not only results in increased output power but also expanded color controls and CCT range, from 2,000K to 10,000K with green-magenta adjustment. This chipset can reproduce >90% of all colors within the Rec. 2020 color space and produces faithful skin tones with a CRI/TLCI score of 96, SSI (D56) of 72, and SSI (Tungsten) of 82, consistent with Aputure’s high color accuracy standards across all product lines.
For full creative freedom, filmmakers can fine-tune the MC Pro’s color using advanced HSI with white-point adjustability, RGB, GEL, or xy controls. In addition to having 15 built-in System FX, the MC Pro is equipped with other advanced features unique to the Aputure and Amaran ecosystems, including Sidus Pro FX, such as Picker FX and Music FX, which can be saved using the Sidus Link app for easy access to different lighting modes.
Whether choosing to control the MC Pro using its new TFT color display or any of its professional remote options such as LumenRadio CRMX, wired DMX/RDM1, or Sidus Link, operating this light feels seamless in even the most demanding conditions.
As a mini LED, the MC Pro’s rugged IP65 build maintains a lightweight frame (247g / 0.54lbs) with a built-in rechargeable 15.5Wh battery that can operate at max output for 120 minutes. Its lightweight body can be mounted anywhere for quick lighting solutions with its rear-mounted magnets and 1⁄4-20in mounting arm that can be attached to the included cold shoe ball head and magnetic plate.
With its compact yet rugged IP65 construction and professional connectivity options, the MC Pro is the perfect light for filmmakers, lighting technicians, and creators who need a portable, multifunctional light that they can pull from their back pocket to tackle any situation. Its small size, integrated magnets, and built-in battery allow it to be easily hidden away within a scene or brought in for the perfect last touch. And for professionals who want a remotely controllable mini LED, the MC Pro features LumenRadio CRMX and Sidus Link app controls.
The MC Pro is also the ideal tool for filmmakers who want a compact light with high output power. Its 45° focused optics, expanded CCT and color
controls, and magnetic modifier ecosystem allow cinematographers to adapt the MC Pro to whatever their scene may need, from a portable fill or accent light to an in-camera practical.
Whether for its durability, multifunctionality, compact form factor, or suite of professional control options, the MC Pro is a tiny powerhouse that belongs in every filmmaker, lighting technician, and creator’s lighting tool kit.
