Aputure Storm 700x Tunable White Compact LED Monolight

Introducing the Aputure STORM 700x, a high-output point-source LED lighting fixture that redefines what a compact, tunable-white engine can deliver on set. Building upon the same innovative foundation as the STORM 1200x, STORM XT52, and STORM 400x, the STORM 700x harnesses Aputure’s proprietary BLAIR LED chipset: an advanced five-diode architecture featuring Blue, Lime, Amber, Indigo, and Red emitters. This groundbreaking chipset enables exceptional spectral quality, unlocking more efficient utilization of each diode’s output and unparalleled accuracy in white light reproduction.

With a powerful 700W COB in a compact form factor, the STORM 700x is the perfect tool for professionals demanding both high output intensity and precision. Offering a wide CCT range of 2,500K to 10,000K and full ±G ASC MITC green-magenta correction, the STORM 700x empowers users to fine-tune their white point with unmatched flexibility

Leveraging its advanced optical system, the STORM 700x produces an impressive 16,730 lux at 3 meters (5600K) when paired with its included 35º reflector. Its performance is matched by industry-leading color fidelity: SSI [P3200] 87 and SSI [D5600] 87. With over 70% coverage of the Rec. 2020 color gamut and smooth stepless dimming from 0.1–100%, the STORM 700x provides the precision and reliability required for color-critical productions.

Engineered for the rigors of professional workflows, the STORM 700x features an IP65 weather-resistant construction and Aputure’s robust ProLock Bowens Mount for enhanced modifier security and optical alignment, even with heavier and optical accessories. Its intelligent cooling system offers four fan modes: Smart, High, Medium, and Silent.

Equipped with comprehensive control options, including Sidus Link® and Sidus Link Pro® app integration, LumenRadio CRMX, 16-bit 5-Pin DMX512 in/out, and support for batch firmware updates, the STORM 700x integrates seamlessly into modern lighting networks and workflows. Additional modes, including Max Output, Constant Output, High-Speed, Lead-Follow, and Studio Modes, expand its versatility for a wide range of production needs.

Designed for filmmakers, cinematographers, and lighting professionals who demand uncompromising output and color performance in a weather-resistant, and network-ready body, the STORM 700x sets a new standard for high-output, precision white light in a compact point-source fixture.
