Featuring an all-new dual-blue LED chipset design, the 100d S has improved spectral continuity to achieve stunning spectral reproduction of an ultra-high SSI (D56) of 86, a 19% increase in SSI from its predecessor. The 100d S also features super The main differences come down to build quality, CRI, and options to control the light.

It plays a key role in setting the mood and creating the desired atmosphere for a project. With the increasing demand for high-quality video content, professionals need access to reliable and effective lighting equipment. However, like the camera and lens department, the lighting section on any online outlet is also inundated with various models and choices. Often leading the consumer to a paradox of choice.

A series of lights aimed at online content creators, photographers, live streamers and solo filmmakers who need consistent lighting for a fraction of the price of the professional units. This is even more prevalent when manufacturers seem to be producing similar items. In this article, we will compare and contrast two popular lighting manufacturers, Aputure and Amaran, to help you decide which company might best fit your needs.

Designed with the familiar monolight form factor, intuitive design, and solid core features, the 100d LED Light from Amaran is a 100W light source with 5600K color and a CRI/TLCI rating of 95/96 to indicate advanced accuracy in color rendering. When Aputure announced a series of affordable “ Amaran” daylight and bi-color lights alongside their live stream deep dive into the flagship 600d Pro, it came as a surprise. The Amaran 100d and 200d are both hundreds of dollars-cheaper when compared to the Aputure 120d MK II which raises questions for the consumer. What are you giving up in exchange for these savings? And, is what you are giving up worth the tradeoff? Let’s find out. Please note – The Aputure 120d Mk I is now discontinued and replaced by the Mark II model. Which offers a slight boost in brightness performance, offering a 20w increase in power)

Aputure are innovators and constantly pushing new features, products and options to its consumers. They have been the go-to for LED lighting products for years, and it’s always exciting to see the following new product they bring to the market. First, let’s discuss what both brands offer; each offers powerful lighting equipment for studios and enthusiasts, light-shaping accessories, and lighting software. The difference? Price, features and materials used.

The 200d S’s 48V DC power input grants the color accurate LED light with the flexibility of both AC and battery power options. Use two Gold or V-Mount batteries with the Aputure 2-Bay Battery Power Station* or the included AC Power Supply for seamless workflows across all shooting environments. The light is dimmable from 0 to 100%, and while you can make light intensity adjustments locally on the fixture, you can also make them via Bluetooth with your smartphone and a free app. The 100d has eight built-in customizable effects, an umbrella mount, and a Bowens reflector mount for access to Amaran light shapers and also those many other manufacturers that use this popular mount. The 100d is ready for worldwide use via its built-in 100-240V power supply, but it will also run on optional batteries when AC power is unavailable. They keep it simple with the main aspect of the product providing high-quality lighting for all users but maintaining acceptable build quality and minimal features to justify its low price.

The Lightdome SE is more compact and pairs well with the less substantial yoke on the Amaran 100d and 200d. More details on the new Lightdome SE can be found here.

In 2014, the Aputure we now know and love was founded, and if you thought Aputure was just a form of misspelt branding like Lyft, the name combines the words “ aperture” and “ future.” The amaran 100d is a daylight point-source LED fixture with stunning brightness, Sidus Link app control, and compatibility with optical modifiers. Whether used in the studio or for on-the-go content creation, the amaran 100d provides the ultimate portable and lightweight light for content creators, interviews, studio filmmaking, portrait photography, and video production.

If, based on the above, you’re starting to get a little concerned, know that where these fixtures really shine (pun intended) is in the color temp accuracy and output/cost/size ratios. This is great because in the end what matters in a light is how it looks on camera, right? Incredibly compact and lightweight. Weighing in at 1.4kg (3.086lbs), the amaran 100d has an ultra compact lamp head with built-in controls, perfect for on-the-go content creation. While remaining incredibly compact, it is also able to output a powerful 39,500 lux at 1 meter using the 55° Hyper-Reflector. You can also find well-priced accessories for the LED units they produce (though very limited in choice); these include soft boxes and light modifiers, cables and handles and grips.

The Amaran 100d has a CRI of 95, and the Aputure 120D has a CRI of 97. The difference between a light with a CRI of 80 vs 90 will be extremely apparent. And a light with a CRI of 95 will perform notably better than one with 90. The jump from 95 to 97 is only incremental, and we would need to be in a specific setup for it to become quite apparent. However, that being said, a 97 CRI is ultimately better and preferable than a light that has a 95 CRI.The Amaran 100d is a daylight point-source LED fixture with stunning brightness and wireless Bluetooth app control. Meet the perfect light for content creators, interviews, portrait photography, and video production. By using the latest COB technology from Amaran, the 100d is able to output a powerful 39,500 lux at 1 meter using the 55° Hyper-Reflector while remaining incredibly compact.
