Aputure Lantern, Spherical softbox

Aputure Chip-on-Board (COB) LEDs are celebrated for their versatility, offering the ability to switch between hard and soft light with ease. The Aputure Lantern is the ultimate soft light modifier for filmmakers who need to move fast without sacrificing quality.

Instant Soft Light Solution

The Aputure Lantern is one of the fastest soft light modifiers available. Featuring a tension-based quick-release design, this spherical softbox can be set up or broken down in seconds. It is the perfect tool for run-and-gun filmmakers who require a portable and efficient lighting solution.

Even, Omnidirectional Coverage

Light up an entire room with ease. Utilizing a 26-inch spherical design, the Lantern spreads light from your LED or studio strobe in all directions with a 270-degree beam angle. This allows you to fill a space with soft, even light using just a single source.

Precision Light Control

To create cinematic depth, control is essential. The Aputure Lantern features a 4-section fully adjustable light control skirt. Using a hook-and-loop design, these removable skirts can be attached in any position to flag off unwanted light and precisely shape your output.

Universal Bowens Mount Compatibility

Designed to fit any Bowens mount fixture, the Lantern is compatible with the Aputure LS 120d and 300d series, as well as many other studio strobes. It is an essential accessory for casting soft light over a wide area while maintaining professional control.
