The Aputure Lantern Softbox Series offers two versatile, omni-directional lighting solutions designed to meet the needs of filmmakers and photographers who require soft, even illumination over a wide area. Available in both 2.2' and 3' diameters, these lantern softboxes are ideal for creating beautiful, diffused light that fills your entire space, whether you're working with LED or strobe fixtures.
Aputure Lantern Softbox (2.2')
The 2.2' Lantern Softbox is compact yet powerful, perfect for overhead use or raising the ambient light level on set. Its 26-inch spherical design spreads light evenly with a 270° beam angle, making it ideal for lighting an entire room with just one fixture. The softbox includes a 4-section adjustable light control skirt, allowing you to direct and shape the light precisely as needed. Whether you’re a run-and-gun filmmaker or need a reliable soft light modifier, the 2.2' Lantern Softbox is designed for quick setup and easy transport.
Aputure Lantern 90 (3')
For those needing even broader coverage, the Lantern 90 features a 3' diameter, casting near 360° of soft light. This makes it perfect for illuminating larger areas, whether mounted horizontally or hung overhead on a boom. The Lantern 90 is equipped with a versatile skirt that can control the light’s spread. Use the skirt on all four sides to focus the light into a soft pool or cover just one side to create a striking light-to-dark ratio, adding depth and dimension to your shots. The Lantern 90 also features a Bowens speed ring, making it compatible with Aputure lights and other brands that utilize this popular mount.
Universal Compatibility
Both the 2.2' and 3' versions of the Aputure Lantern Softbox come with a Bowens mount, ensuring they are compatible with a wide range of LED and strobe fixtures, including popular models like the Aputure 120d and 300d series. This universal fit makes them versatile additions to any lighting kit, offering soft, controlled lighting wherever you need it.
