Aputure STORM 700x
A new LED Monolight is here, and Aputure is betting big that it’s going to be a fan favorite for production crews of all sizes. The STORM 700x aims to bring the company’s next-gen BLAIR light engine to a popular and essential form factor, which is commonly used by all types of videographers, rental houses, and pretty much every type of production in between.
With its reflector included, the STORM 700x is set to be three times brighter at three 3 meters than the LS 600x Pro, while still small and light enough to mount on a baby stand.
Let’s look at the Aputure STORM 700x Tunable White LED Monolight and see what it has to offer.

Designed to be simply a great lighting solution for filmmakers, cinematographers, and lighting professionals, the STORM 700x should easily satisfy any need for high output and precision white light color performance in a weather-resistant body.
The STORM 700x ships with a 35° reflector, a control box, a clamp, head, and power cables, and a soft rolling case that packs it all.
