With our recent release of the Fresnel 2X and Spotlight for intensifying and shaping hard light, we decided it was time to introduce an easier way to shape your soft light too.

Quick Solution

This spherical softbox can pop open and be ready to use in mere seconds. With the Lantern you can produce soft, even light wherever your shoots may take you.

Even, Omnidirectional Light

By utilizing a 26-inch spherical design, the Lantern spreads the light from your LED or Studio Strobe in all directions with a 270-degree beam angle.

Art of Control

The Aputure Lantern is one of the only spherical softboxes on the market with a 4-section fully adjustable light control skirt. By using a hook-and-loop design, the removable skirts can attach in any position, to quickly and precisely control your soft light.

Ready For Run and Gun

With its tension-based quick release frame, the Lantern can be set up or broken down in just a few seconds, allowing you to set up fewer lights, faster.

Any Bowens Light

With the ability to fit onto any Bowens mount Studio Strobe or LED fixtures, such as our 120d or 300d series lights, the Lantern is the perfect photo or video accessory for casting soft light over a wide area, while still maintaining control.
