Key Features
Compact Softness: The LS 60 Softbox is designed to work in tandem with the LS 60d & 60x, transforming the focusable point-source lights into the perfect compact soft lighting tool.
Run-and-gun Lighting: With 35mm (14in.) sides, the square LS 60 softbox has a diffusion area larger than a 1x1 LED panel, making it perfect for a run-and-gun key, fill, or back light, increasing the aperture of the light source while maintaining the lightweight, compact nature of the LS 60d & 60x.
Diffusion Options: With its two included front diffusions, the LS 60 Softbox allows filmmakers to choose the density and softness of their light source, matching the 1.5 & 2.5 stop diffusion fabrics of the Light Dome II and Light Dome SE.
Light Control Grid: Following Aputure’s philosophy of ultimate light control for both soft and hard lights, the LS 60 Softbox includes a fabric light control grid to give the soft light direction and minimize excess spill.
Quick Opening & Folding: Special design makes it quite easy to open or fold up, can be assembled or disassembled in a minute. Light weight, foldable, and comes with a carrying case, convenient for storage or transportation.
