Featuring an upgraded dual-sided and foldable quick release mechanism, the Aputure Light Dome III drastically reduces the set-up time for its 16-sided, point source-softening circular softbox, providing professional, portrait-ready lighting in mere seconds. The parabolic, hexadecagonal design of the Light Dome III is reinforced by 16 durable steel support rods, which now snap into place with a simple downward press of its widely-compatible Bowens Mount bracket, saving valuable time on set. This structure also ensures uniform light output distribution, delivering soft, even illumination on any subject. The modifier includes a silver interior to maximize light output and comes with 1.5-stop and 2.5-stop front diffusers, as well as a 40° fabric grid for enhanced light-shaping capabilities.
