The Aputure NOVA II 1x1 Tunable Color LED Light Panel delivers high-performance, full-color output in a compact 500W form factor designed for cinematographers, gaffers, and lighting technicians who demand precision and power. Bringing the same professional features and color accuracy found in the larger NOVA II 2x1, the NOVA II 1x1 offers a more space-efficient design while maintaining a durable, weather-sealed construction for demanding production environments.
At its core is Aputure’s advanced BLAIR-CG LED chipset, enabling rich, accurate color reproduction across a wide range of professional lighting applications in film, television, and broadcast. The panel delivers exceptional color fidelity with high CRI, TLCI, TM-30, SSI, and CQS ratings, and offers an expansive 1800–20,000K color temperature range with precise ± green/magenta adjustment for refined color control. Powerful, versatile, and compact, the NOVA II 1x1 is a premium full-color lighting solution built for high-end cinematic workflows.
Among the NOVA II 1x1's features is reliable and advanced control. Users can opt for the intuitive onboard or app control, or go with 16-bit DMX512 in/out, LumenRadio CRMX, Art-Net/sACN, as well as USB or DMX batch firmware upgrades. Experience multiple dimming curves, four fan modes, and dual output modes with max and constant settings. Another fact that will impress gaffers and lighting technicians is a QuickClip front-mounting accessory ecosystem that reduces the complexity of mounting slide-in modifiers by providing a quicker light-shaping solution. Finally, a rugged IP65-rated body was attentively engineered for the most demanding productions. Here, Aputure includes a conveniently removable yoke, a flat diffuser, a 19.6' long AC power cable, and a 1.6' long safety chain.
Full-Color Lighting
Building on the legacy of the Nova P300c and Nova P600c models, Aputure launches the NOVA II 1x1 to deliver a brighter output and more creative features. Take advantage of a weather-sealed IP65-rated design that makes it suited for both indoor studio setups and demanding exterior shoots. Even when paired with its included flat diffuser, the NOVA II 1x1 maintains smooth, even, bright illumination from a compact form factor optimized for travel and on-set flexibility.
Impressive Output
The NOVA II 1x1 has a native 35° beam angle with a brightness of 108,200 lux at 3.3' and 5600K, 13,300 lux at 9.8', or up to 2466 lux using the included flat diffuser at the same distance. It features smooth stepless dimming for adjusting light output from 0.1 to 100% with four dimming curves: linear, exponential, logarithmic, and S-shaped. This 16 x 15.4" LED panel is actively fan-cooled and offers four DMX-controllable fan modes: smart, high, medium, and silent.
Impressive Color Accuracy
Industry-leading fidelity metrics and high color accuracy ratings ensure the NOVA II 1x1's ability to faithfully reproduce colors. With CRI 95, TLCI 95, TM-30 Rf 95, and Rg 100 ratings, the fixture ensures natural and lifelike rendering that's ideal for color-critical applications. Other noteworthy ratings include: CQS (CIE D5600) 96, SSI (P3200) 90, and SSI (CIE D5600) 86. The light also provides advanced white point control with green/magenta color correction by +/-G at 100% to conform with the full ASC MITC standard.
BLAIR-CG Chipset
Aputure's advanced BLAIR-CG chipset features a seven-diode structure combining blue, lime, amber, indigo, red, cyan, and green emitters. With its powerful output, expansive CCT range, and color accuracy, the NOVA II 1x1 delivers clean, reliable illumination for high-end film and television setups. This panel is the answer for those requiring consistent, color-accurate light that can match or contrast ambient sources. Emulate ambient light sources, fine-tune white point consistency, or push bold creative contrasts with confidence.
Batch Firmware Updates
Batch firmware update options ensure dependable performance across productions, and the fixture supports upgrades through Sidus Link Pro, Sidus Link, USB drive, or DMX. Rental houses will also appreciate the NOVA II 1x1's combination of a reliable IP65-rated body, 500W output, and ecosystem compatibility. Whether operating as a single key source or integrated into complex console-controlled networks, the NOVA II 1x1 ensures fast, reliable communication.
Durable & Convenient Design
The panel's LEDs are packed into a compact design that doesn't sacrifice power and flexibility. A removable yoke is included to facilitate rigging, while Aputure's QuickClip direct front-mounting accessory ecosystem improves your workflow by making light shaping easier and faster. The lamp head only weighs 21 lb without its yoke or 25 lb with it, making the NOVA II 1x1 a durable lighting solution with rigging and control options.
