Why this $349 light is BETTER than the Aputure Nova P300C 

Super useful comparison. Thank you!

I have a P60C and I don't use it where my 100d with a softbox is what's needed. I use it as it was made. It's a tool that's best for some specific uses. I laid it under a steel set of stairs in a warehouse with a really high ceiling. We blew fog straight up through the stairs and this light lit up everything in a thick red color as the girl who was being chased by Freddy frantically came down the stairs in this "boiler room." I could not believe how much light this thing put out and how cinematic it looked. Also, when we were shooting an interior house room, but needed to see the action taking place outside the window too, the P60C brought up the inside in a warmer light to expose the wall and the girl on the loveseat in front of the window, who was oblivious to the horror happening outside. We got great exposure both inside and out the window. Just needed a little kicker coming from the other side of the room. This light is fantastic. Creates "weird" feels for room with very saturated color for those kinds of scenes. Also convenient with warm to cold white light, and the softbox provides just what's needed. Of course there are times when the 300 Nova would be needed, but not in the projects I do (Indie film, commercials, shorts). The P60C is a steal at its price.

Fellow Oklahoma filmmaker, your video popped up in my recommended.🤘 I definitely am going to scoop a few of the P60c lights, always can have some more small panels lights available!

thanks :)

I recently got two sets of the Aputure MC 4 light kits I just got a pair of these. This system is fantastic. Though on these P60Cs I plan to build some kind of stirrup for mounting onto a baby pin. I can see on the Left and Right 1/4-20 threads there are notches for a better mounting system. Aputure did have this in mind. Maybe they just want to add it later as an upgrade?

@JAMImagery I would be interested in a new comparison video such as this, for the Amaran 150c and 300c point lamps just released.

I was looking for a video like this. Thanks! Just got two p60c units. Both are giving me 4000lux at 1m, 5600k. Far away from the 5900lux Aputure has promissed. The store did the test too and got the same results as I did. That and the mount are really down sides to me :(

I live in Skiatook, about 30 mins north of Tulsa. We should collaborate.

we are planning to build a curved white studio, and have been thinking about which rgb panel to choose, we think we would need two or three Nova 300c but would it work with lile 6 60c do you think?

I mean, I get what you're trying to get at -- but that's why they have ND filters,

This makes me mad with the p300C. Granted, the P300C is bright and it’s never not been bright enough, I feel like a lot of power is wasted because of how much the light spills on everything. It looks a a light the fifth of price and power draw, is only 2 stops dimmer. The P300C needs those lenses on the LED the P60C because the spread is already intense
