I got my hands on the Aputure 600x Pro and the Light dome 150. Learn a little bit about what it's like to use this powerful fixture and the giant accessory. I might need a bigger studio.

Keep ‘em coming man. I love your videos.

[@JamieFenn]

Nice video Tommy! Great to see you back!

[@ac1320]

Good to see you back! I want this just to Batman glide off a building with that softbox.

[@TommyCallaway]

I think he tried that but it was too big

[@joegraziano3580]

Great video as always, Tommy. Love your work! Huge support to you 🤙🏽

[@TommyCallaway]

I really, really like Artlist. lol

[@StefanFischerFacilitation]

You are back!? Nice!

[@AlexMinor]

TOMMY!!!! You're ALIVE!!!!

[@ScottJWaldron]

Nice video. Having one of those gigantic light dome modifiers would be like one of those "made it" moments if I had that much dedicated space, lol. Would be nice!

[@benarnoux]

That light looks great!! That dome though…idk. I’m never mad at soft light though… I’ll just hide it in my gear closet. 🤣

[@murallod]

The other lightdomes aputure has come out with have been very good. They are built very well and pairs with all their lights very well. Thanks for your thoughts Tommy!

[@NarutoUzumaki10.10]

Thanks for the review! At what intensity was the 600x when you demonstrated the Light Dome 150?

[@TommyCallaway]

Very low. like 5%. By contrast, the light dome SE on aputure 120d ii was at 80%

[@NarutoUzumaki10.10]

@@TommyCallaway Thank you for the quick reply, I appreciate!

[@AlmightyUniden]

I'd love to hear your opinion on the different apps for controlling dmx enabled lights. Since my gaffer has like 6 Skypanels and enjoys a really user friendly interface, we've been using Arri's Stellar app to control them with an ipad but honestly I have mix feelings about it. I think Blackout seems to have the most potential and depth but is the least easy to use while Luminair is a mix of both. Is the control One kit any good? We're trying the Cintenna 2 system next month

[@JamesRudd]

I use the Exalux Control One with 4 Kinos, 2 Nanlux Evoke, 8 Astera Nyx, 1 Hazer, 2 Astera Pixel Bricks, 1 Falcon Eyes 2x3 RGB and have spare receivers for say Skypanels - its very straightforward, efficient and can control up to 40 fixtures in one universe - good range too. The Aputure app drives me mad when I need to use with it with my MCs constantly loses communication and a real faff - when DoPs are used to CRMX wireless control - the App is too slow. So App ok at a push now and then, Exalux good all day day in day out.

[@MissDemonaable]

One question, what light stand did you use for your Aputure? Thank u in advance! 😀

[@Channel60291]

Could this light dome 150 work with lets say… an Aputure LS 60D? 😳

[@pattyrick8158]

no because it's so heavy that it's only compatible for 600x and 600d and the 1200

[@user-xv6tk2vw3r]

Is it compatible with LS 300 X

[@PancakeLighting]

What’s the name of that DMX controller?

[@TommyCallaway]

Exalux Control One (I have the "rental kit" which has a v-mount battery plate)

[@PancakeLighting]

@@TommyCallaway Awesome, thanks Tommy!

[@Humcrush]

Yeah, no. They're not too big for what they are intended for. You don't put a 600 Pro and and a Light Dome 150 in a KZbinrs garage or basement. You put them on set, you put them on location, you put them in a decent sized photo studio. They excel where you CAN'T get lights close or they'd be in shot. For my basement YT studio a relatively low powered flex light gives me the same sized key light (relatively speaking) because its inches from my head. If I have to hide a light outside a window and key a group of people, though, I need the 600D. Actually, I probably need two.

[@TommyCallaway]

I'm in agreement - that's exactly what I was saying toward the end of this video..
