The Aputure Amaran AL-H198 On-Camera LED Video Light produces 920 lux of daylight balanced white light and can be easily mounted on your camera’s hot or cold shoe so that you can confidently shoot in dim light and capture correctly exposed images. Its frameless, lightweight body and modular design makes it a great solution for both on location and in studio shooting. 

The Amaran AL-H198 LED Light uses 198 LEDs to deliver an impressive 920 lux maximum output measured at 1m from the light source. The 60° spread provides bright, even lighting to illuminates subjects in the foreground allowing you to shoot correctly exposed videos.

The AL-H198 is daylight balanced with a 5500K colour temperature. With a Colour Rendering Index of 95+, the light panel offers accurate colour reproduction that allows you to capture the natural look of your subject. This is especially ideal for things like product photography and portraits.

At just 325 grams, the Amaran LED panel can be easily attached to your camera’s accessory shoe using the supplied swivel mount adapter. The adapter has a ball joint that lets you position the light as needed.
