Aputure Storm 1200X
Beyond Bi-Colour. The STORM 1200x is the first light to feature Aputure’s tuneable white BLAIR light engine, which delivers the most accurate match to natural daylight and tungsten quartz light. The STORM 1200x offers even more industry-leading features, from the largest range of CCT adjustment to full +/- Green control, extreme low-end dimming, and the new ProLock Bowens mount for securely attaching modifiers with more movement and perfect optical alignment.

INTRODUCING BLAIR
The STORM 1200x utilizes a new BLAIR five-colour (Blue/Lime/Amber/Indigo/Red) light engine to better fill out the colour spectrum while offering greater adjustability.
EXPERIENCE FULL SPECTRUM
The calibrated Indigo enhances fluorescing materials, resulting in a higher quality white light that better matches natural daylight and black body sources such as tungsten quartz, CRI 95+, SSI [P3200]): 87, SSI (CIE D5600): 87.
SEE THE DIFFERENCE
We compared the colour response for natural daylight, a traditional bi-colour LED, and the STORM 1200x together and found huge, but subtle differences in the objects that fluoresce.
BEST COLOR ADJUSTABILITY
The BLAIR Light Engine enables the STORM 1200x to offer a greater range of CCT than traditional bi-colours and is the first light of its kind to offer 100% +/- Green control, the full ASC MITC range of adjustment.
INTRODUCING XY CONTROL
The STORM 1200x has so much colour range Aputure has even added an x,y Coordinate mode for greater precision control.
PRECISION LOW-END DIMMING
Bit-depth control is increased for improved low-end dimming. This enables the STORM 1200x to use PWM dimming all the way down to 0.1% without shifts or drop-off. Colour accuracy is maintained throughout the brightness range, even at extreme low brightness levels.
ProLock Locking Bowens Mount
The STORM lights feature the ProLock Locking Bowens Mount, a more secure clamping design for attaching modifiers. Bowens accessories are held rigidly in place and precision optics such as fresnels and Spotlight projectors are precisely aligned with the light engine.
IP65 Weather Protection
Head-to-toe IP65 dust and weather protection means the STORM 1200x can work in extreme environments. Seals on every connector and around components allow not only the lamphead but also the control box and cabling to be used outside in the rain.
EVERY CONTROL OPTION OUT THERE
The Storm 1200x features all of the professional connectivity options used in modern lighting: CRMX, DMX512 in and out, sACN and Art-Net over etherCON, and Sidus Mesh.
