Features

• Bowens Mount Compatibility: Both the Light Box 30120 and 6090 can be mounted on any light with a Bowens mount, ensuring wide compatibility.
• Diffusion Control: Both models include 1.5-stop and 2.5-stop removable diffusers to soften and control light intensity.

Key Differences

• Size:

  • Aputure Light Box 30120: Available in 1' x 4' (12" x 48") and 2' x 3' (24" x 36") sizes, the 30120 is designed for narrow, rectangular light, ideal for edge lighting and reflections in tight spaces.
  • Aputure Light Box 6090: Measuring 24" x 36", the Light Box 6090 provides broader, more even light coverage, making it perfect for portraits and interviews.

• Weight:

  • Light Box 30120: Weighs just 2.4 lbs, making it highly portable for on-the-go shoots or compact studio setups.
  • Light Box 6090: Slightly heavier at 3.5 lbs, but still lightweight for easy transport.

• Design Use:

  • Light Box 30120: The narrower design is ideal for fitting into tight corners or locations where larger softboxes can’t reach, providing precise edge lights and creating controlled reflections.
  • Light Box 6090: The wider design offers soft, even light over a broader area, ideal for larger-scale shots like portraits or broadcast setups where expansive, smooth light is key.

Both the Aputure Light Box 30120 and Light Box 6090 offer exceptional lighting solutions for professionals. Choose the 30120 for narrow, precise lighting or the 6090 for broader, softer light coverage, depending on your specific needs.
