Any REGRETS?! Aputure Amaran P60c Long-Term Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 июл 2024
- Not all products you purchase turn out the way you expect. And for the Aputure Amaran P60c, there is perhaps no better example of that, given some notable issues I've discussed with it on the channel. But how does this 60w RGB color LED panel stack up in terms of the good and not so good aspects, do I have any regrets in purchasing it, and is it something I'd recommend for others?
In this review, I'll cover my thoughts on the Amaran P60c, including many good attributes and its vast array of specifications and features, and what/how I use the panel in my regular video production work. That said, I'll equally discuss some of the lesser discussed or hidden not so good aspects to the product, and my personal experience in dealing with these over the course of time. Last, I'll discuss price as a factor when considering this or other similar models, and offer my final thoughts on the P60c.

Tbh, i have 2 of them, one for a second light, the other one for the background when i can use it. & it’s an amazing « little » light.
Maybe one of the best for panel light on the market. Perfect color fidelity, huge power, perfect to travel with it.. that is what i want for a light. Okay the soft box is not amazing, but i think they wanted to do something « easy » & little. I personally use the 300c as a main light & its great.
Listening your video, i feel like you’re almost saying its a bad product haha (i’m french so it’s my appreciation ^^)
For what it does, it's a great light - I wouldn't have bought more than one if I didn't think so. I think Aputure went a bit cheap on some of the accessories, and didn't handle the BT Reset issue well. That said, those flaws don't change my overall opinion of the light.
I have two of them and recently started using them more. I got the aluminum yokes for them and it give them more mounting options. Instead of getting a 3rd I've considering getting a p300C or another brand with hire output to just flood a space in a compact unit.
Are you talking about the ones from ProAm? They look nice, I'm surprised Aputure didn't bother making something similar. The Nova's a great fixture; would easily pair well with these as a bigger/brighter option.
@@andrewsaraceni Yes the ProAm ones. Note, you can't store the yoke in the case with the light so it ads an extra step during setup and tear down. With the soft box you really only have the ability to change the angle when the base of the yoke is horizontal.
Light enough to boom up as a hair light? Or should I get a F21c mat light?
So long as you're using a solid light/C stand, it should be fine.
for the size and output, the P60C is way to heavy - the P60X is much lighter. its the main downside - because when ultra-portable, it makes no sense for a small light and a heavy tripod. if you are additionally using NPF batteries for this light, it gets crazy heavy and very unbalanced (because it got no yoke - so its very front heavy) - you need a good tripod and sandbags.
@@noBfilm Yeah it's definitely a fair amount larger/heavier than competing RGB panel lights. If you're mounting it flat/standing up, might be fine with the average light stand, but any extreme angles or complex rigging it needs good stands and sandbags.
You get what you pay for. Glad I never got one.
I've been happy with mine, but a light that's even a fraction of the cost still shouldn't have had the BT Reset, etc. issues.
@@andrewsaraceni we ended up getting some P600c and P300c instead 😂
@@Bobsmithabc Well that's definitely an upgrade. 😂
