Aputure NOVA II 1x1
The Aputure NOVA II 1x1 is a next-generation full-color LED panel designed to redefine what a compact professional lighting fixture can achieve. Building on the legacy of the Nova P300c, the NOVA II 1x1 delivers more than twice the diffused output and greater creative control than its predecessor, all within a rugged, IP65-rated housing engineered for the most demanding film, television, and broadcast environments.
At its core lies Aputure’s advanced BLAIR-CG color engine, a seven-diode architecture combining Blue, Lime, Amber, Indigo, Red, Cyan, and Green emitters. This design achieves exceptional spectral accuracy and natural color reproduction across an expansive 1,800K–20,000K CCT range, with full ASC MITC ±G green-magenta control. The result is a light that offers unmatched flexibility for fine-tuning white balance, matching practical sources, or achieving consistent skin tone reproduction in any lighting environment.
With a 500W output, the NOVA II 1x1 produces an impressive 13,300 lux at 3 meters (5600K, bare bulb), making it one of the brightest fixtures in its class. Even when paired with its included flat diffusion panel, it maintains smooth, even luminance and exceptional color fidelity, supported by industry-leading metrics: CRI/TLCI ≥95, TM-30 Rf 95/Rg 100, and SSI scores of 90 (3200K) and 86 (5600K). This blend of power and precision allows lighting technicians to achieve both crisp key lighting and soft, flattering fill from a single, compact source.
Designed with versatility in mind, the NOVA II 1x1 introduces Aputure’s QuickClip front-mounting accessory ecosystem, streamlining the process of attaching modifiers directly to the fixture without traditional slide-in frames. Its removable yoke and lightweight 11.35 kg (25.02 lb) body make it ideal for rigging on trusses, stands, or ceilings, while maintaining a balanced form factor optimized for travel and on-set flexibility.
Built for professional control and durability, the NOVA II 1x1 offers Sidus Link® and Sidus Link Pro® wireless operation, along with 16-bit DMX512, CRMX, and Art-Net/sACN. Whether used as a standalone key light or integrated into complex lighting networks, it ensures reliable communication and intuitive operation that meets the needs of modern productions.
With its compact size, robust output, and unmatched color accuracy, the NOVA II 1x1 stands as the definitive small-format panel for professionals seeking uncompromising performance and creative control in a portable, weather-sealed design.
The NOVA II 1x1 is designed for cinematographers, gaffers, and lighting technicians who need a compact, high-performance LED panel capable of delivering professional-grade results in any environment. Ideal for film, television, commercial, and broadcast productions, it provides the perfect balance of portability, precision, and power. It offers the same color accuracy and control as the larger NOVA II 2x1 in a smaller, more portable form factor. Its weather-sealed, IP65-rated design makes it suited for indoor studio setups as well as demanding exterior shoots. Its integration with Sidus Link®, DMX, CRMX, and Art-Net/sACN ensures seamless control across both single-fixture and large lighting networks. Whether used as a key, fill, or effects source, the NOVA II 1x1 empowers lighting professionals to achieve consistent, creative results with confidence and efficiency.
