With an aluminum alloy die-cast metal body, the Spotlight Mount maintains Aputure’s standards for durability while utilizing a more lightweight design than typical tungsten ellipsoidal lights
The Spotlight Mount maintains our philosophy of versatility and modularity by utilizing the Bowens mount for use with our 120d Mark II and 300d lights.
With the included B-size Gobos, Gobo Holder, and gel frame the Spotlight Mount allows for even further light manipulation, to easily project any shape or color you can think of.
