MORE PRACTICAL

The Accent B7c is a battery-operated 7W RGBWW color-mixing LED light bulb, and the first product in Aputure’s Accent family of “practical” LED lights built for filmmakers, with a unique combination of features no other light has.

YOUR FAVORITE LAMP

The B7c features a standard E26/27 lamp socket screw connector making it compatible with a wide variety of lamps anywhere in the world. Its light bulb form factor allows users to more naturally integrate programmable, color-mixing, practical lighting into any scene.

MATCH ANY LIGHT

The Accent B7c matches the color temperature range of the Nova P300c, Aputure’s most advanced color mixing light, producing a wide color temperature range of 2,000K-10,000K. And when combined with Sidus Link’s SourceMatch feature, it can match nearly any white light source.

PRISTINE QUALITY YOU CAN TRUST

Unlike typical household LED bulbs, the Accent B7c uses cinema-grade LEDs to reproduce immaculate skin tones -- with impeccable CRI and TLCI values of 95+, and a tungsten SSI score of 85, outpacing industry-standard lights.

COLOR TUNABILITY

Utilizing Aputure’s unique RGBWW LED configuration, the B7c bulb is able to produce over 90% of the saturated colors in the Rec.2020 color space, putting it on par with industry-standard lighting instruments.

FLICKER-FREE FILMMAKING

The Accent B7c like all Aputure products is made with filmmakers in mind. Unlike consumer LED smart bulbs, the B7c features 20KHz stepless dimming that remains completely flicker-free up to at least 1,000fps with no color shift.

BUILT-IN BATTERY

The B7c is also the first bulb designed for filmmakers to have a built-in battery, powering the B7c for over 70 minutes at full power, and over 20 hours as it approaches minimum brightness.


AC/DC MODE

The B7c’s unique internal battery allows the B7c to have multiple power supply modes: AC & Battery (DC). In AC power mode the B7c retains its last settings and turns on and off like a traditional light bulb, allowing for natural interactions with actors.

PREMIUM CONSTRUCTION

Using an aluminum metal structure and a unique toroidal diffusion design, the B7c spreads lights evenly while also maintaining absolute stealth on-camera.

ON-BOARD CONTROLS

The Accent B7c is the only LED smart bulb to feature on-board buttons for both brightness and CCT control, allowing users to adjust intensity and CCT presets in a few simple clicks, without even connecting it to the Sidus Link app.

SIDUS LINK

Using built-in Sidus Mesh technology, the B7c can also be controlled wirelessly via a smartphone or iPad using the Sidus Link app, allowing filmmakers to fine-tune CCT, brightness, color, and FX, as well as use SourceMatch and ColorPicker modes to match nearly any color.

SIDUSPRO FX

Through Sidus Link, the Accent B7c has access to built-in lighting FX, as well as SidusProTM FX such as PickerFX, Manual FX, and Magic Program, producing an ecosystem that allows creatives to design a myriad of unique programmable FX.

CHARGING CASE

The Accent B7c is a battery-operated 7W RGBWW color-mixing LED light bulb, and the first product in Aputure’s Accent family of “practical” LED lights built for filmmakers, with a unique combination of features no other light has.

CHARGING CASE

The Accent B7c is also [soon to be] available in an 8-Light Charging Kit, made for indie-filmmakers, owner-operators, and rental houses, featuring a durable hard shell case with the capacity to store, protect, and simultaneously charge up to eight B7c bulbs.

Manuals

HOW DO I CHARGE THE ACCENT B7C?

The Accent B7c can be charged by simply inserting it into an actively powered lamp. As long as the lamp is on the B7c will charge. It can charge and produce light simultaneously, however, as the internal heat builds up, the pace of charging will slow. When powered off or in standby mode, the B7c can charge from 0-100% in 2 hours.

CAN THE ACCENT B7C USE MAGIC PROGRAM WITH MY APUTURE MC LIGHTS?

Yes, on the latest firmware, the B7c supports SidusProTM FX, allowing creatives to design lighting sequences in tandem with the MC.

SHOULD I BE CONCERNED IF THE SHELL OF THE ACCENT B7C GETS WARM?

The Accent B7c’s aluminum shell is designed as an external heatsink that wicks away heat from the internal components. By its nature, as it absorbs heat from the internals of the light, the aluminum shell will begin to heat up. This is will not cause any issues with the bulb, but users should maintain caution when touching the bulb after using it for longer periods of time.

WILL THE B7C PRODUCE FLICKER LIKE MY HOUSEHOLD SMART BULBS?

The B7c uses cinema-grade LED and dimming technology to provide a flicker-free filmmaking experience. Although household bulbs may produce flicker when dimmed or recorded in high frame rates, the B7c’s 20KHz dimming technology guarantees that it will remain flicker-free up to over 1,000fps.

WHEN WILL THE ACCENT B7C 8-LIGHT CHARGING KIT BE AVAILABLE?

The 8-Light Charging Kit will be available in early 2021.
