The Aputure Amaran Spotlight SE Kit consists of the Spotlight SE lens modifier, a 36-degree lens, a medium-sized gobo holder, 15 medium-sized gobos, a carry strap, and a carrying case. The Spotlight SE is Amaran’s first projection lens modifier designed to elevate the performance of your Amaran 150c or 300c. This compact optical modifier for Bowens Mount point-source fixtures (up to 300W) transforms your light into a powerful spotlight that can extend the reach of your illumination and produce an even, shapeable output.

Target Audience

The Spotlight SE is ideal for users who want to pair it with Amaran or Aputure Bowens mount point-source fixtures (up to 300W) to easily create shapeable beams of light. Precision light shaping is key for filmmakers and creators who want to achieve a specific look or mood in their scenes. The Spotlight SE’s interchangeable lenses and built-in shutters allow for precise control over the size and shape of the output, making it possible to achieve anything from a sharp, focused beam with crisp edges to a defocused image using M-Size gobos to project patterns. Different beam angles are essential for filmmakers and creators who need to quickly adjust their lighting setup to suit different scenarios. With its 36-degree lenses, the Spotlight SE offers the versatility needed to adapt to a wide range of shooting situations. Whether lighting a close-up or a wider shot, the Spotlight SE’s adjustable beam angle and 18-leaf iris (sold separately) can always be sized to fit your scene. The Spotlight SE is an excellent choice for filmmakers and creators who require precise control over their lighting designs. Whether used on its own or as part of a larger lighting setup, with its Bowens mount compatibility, precision light shaping, and different beam angle options, it offers the versatility and precision to make it a valuable addition to any filmmaker’s or creator’s toolkit.

Compact and Lightweight Projection Lens

The Amaran Spotlight SE is a smaller form factor projection lens than its bigger brother, the Aputure Spotlight Mount. Measuring up to 12.2 inches or only as heavy as 3.4 lb with an additional iris, users can mount the Spotlight SE to Bowens Mount fixtures with an output of up to 300W.

Even Edge-to-Edge Light Distribution

With custom optics that provide a clean projection beam, the edge-to-edge light distribution of the Spotlight SE is even and smooth, reducing artifacts like hotspots in any part of the illumination circle.

Larger Beam Spread

The 36-degree lens provides a larger beam spread, perfect for illuminating wider areas. And, to make sure you can adapt to any situation on the fly, you can easily swap between Spotlight SE's lens options.

Built-In Shutters

The Spotlight SE’s beam output can be precisely cut using its built-in shutters. Four individual metal shutters are found in the body of the Spotlight SE which users can quickly slide in and out to cut the projection beam and various angles.

Quick Focus Adjustments

Focusing the 36-degree lenses while installed on the Spotlight SE body is fast and simple. Simply loosen the red retaining screw on the side of the Spotlight SE and slide the lens back and forth.

Universal Bowens Mount

The Spotlight SE features a Universal Bowens Accessory Mount, making it compatible with point-source Bowens Mount fixtures with less than 300W of output such as the new Amaran 150c and 300c as well as the Amaran COB S Series lights like the 100x S or 200d S.

15 Included M-Sized Gobos

For projection shaping capabilities, the Spotlight SE comes with 15 M-Size Gobo inserts, each one capable of creating a range of interesting lighting shapes, from tree and window panes to other shapes that can match any scene or environment. These M-Size Gobos match the Aputure Spotlight Mini Zoom and are perfect for adding visual interest to the scene.
