    Basically, the Aputure MC Light is a high quality product. What I don’t like at all is that the Sidus Link app, without which I cannot use the full range of functions of the light, wants the access to my location, my camera and the permission to make REQUIRED recordings. Without this permission, the Aputure MC will not connect to the Sidus Link app and I cannot use all functions. What??? Now my video light wants to monitor me? I will probably send the light back. As good as it is…

    As a professional photographer, I always look for the best lighting tools available in the market. Recently, I got my hands on the Aputure MC, and I must say I am highly impressed with this product.

    The Aputure MC is a compact and versatile LED light. Its 9.1 cm width makes it easy to carry in my camera bag, making it my go-to lighting tool for outdoor shoots. Moreover, its easy-to-use interface allows me to adjust the brightness, hue, and saturation according to my preference, giving me complete control over the lighting scenario.

    What sets the Aputure MC apart from other studio lighting equipment is its wireless control ability through the Sidus Link App. It gives me the ease of controlling the light from my phone without having to walk back to the set. This feature is particularly useful when I’m shooting alone or with a small team.

    The light output is fantastic, and the colors are beautifully saturated, making my photos look more vibrant and vivid. Another feature worth mentioning is its built-in rechargeable battery, making it eco-friendly and extremely convenient.

    Overall, I highly recommend the Aputure MC for any professional or amateur photographers who are looking for a versatile, easy-to-use, and reliable lighting solution. Its compact size, wireless control, and superb output make it a must-have lighting tool for any photographer. I would rate Aputure MC 5 out of 5 stars.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How do I set up studio lighting for my Apurture MC camera?

Here are some steps you can follow to set up studio lighting for your Aputure MC camera:
1. Determine the purpose of your shoot and the type of lighting effect you want to achieve. This will help you decide on the type and number of lights needed.
2. Choose the right light modifiers. You can use umbrellas, softboxes, or diffusers to create different types of lighting effects.
3. Set up your main light source. The main light should be positioned at a 45-degree angle from the subject's face and slightly above eye level. This will provide a flattering light that accentuates facial features.
4. Add fill light if needed. Fill light is used to reduce shadows on the side of the face opposite the main light source. You can use a smaller light or bounce light off a reflector to achieve this effect.
5. Set up backlighting or rim lighting. This type of lighting creates a halo effect around the subject and separates them from the background. Place the backlight behind and slightly above the subject's head.
6. Adjust the power levels of your lights. Use your camera's built-in light meter or an external one to ensure that all lights are balanced and provide even illumination on the subject.
7. Test your setup. Take some test shots with different lighting combinations until you find the perfect balance for your shoot.
8. Consider using gels or color correction filters if you need to adjust the color temperature of your lights.
Remember that practice makes perfect, so don't be afraid to experiment with different lighting setups and techniques to achieve the look you want.

How do I set up and adjust my studio lighting using Apurture MC?

To set up and adjust your studio lighting using the Aputure MC, follow these steps:
1. Place the MC mount on your camera's hot shoe or use a compatible adapter if necessary.
2. Connect the MC controller to the MC receiver.
3. Power on both devices by pressing and holding the power button until the indicator light turns green.
4. Turn on the Aputure MC lights you want to control using their individual switches.
5. On the MC controller, press the "M" button to enter manual mode. Use the left and right arrow buttons to select a specific light, then use the up and down arrow buttons to adjust the power output of that light.
6. If you want to change the color temperature or white balance of a particular light, press the "C" button on the MC controller, select the light, and use the left and right arrow buttons to choose a preset color temperature (in Kelvin) or white balance mode.
7. To save your settings for future use, press the "M" button again and then press and hold the "OK" button until the indicator light flashes three times. This will store the current settings as a user-defined scene.
8. To recall a saved scene, press the "M" button and then press the "S" button to cycle through your stored scenes until you find the one you want. Press the "OK" button to activate that scene.

How do I properly attach and detach the diffuser from the Aputure MC light panel?

To attach the diffuser to the Aputure MC light panel, follow these steps:
1. Align the diffuser's velcro strips with the corresponding areas on the back of the MC light panel. Press the diffuser onto the light panel firmly and evenly. Make sure there are no wrinkles or creases in the diffuser to ensure even lighting. To detach the diffuser from the Aputure MC light panel, follow these steps:
1. Grasp the edges of the diffuser and gently pull it away from the light panel. Make sure to lift the entire diffuser at once and avoid pulling on the corners to prevent tearing or creasing. Store the diffuser in a safe place when not in use.
