Introducing the Aputure CF16 Fresnel Motorized

The Aputure Motorized CF16 Fresnel is a 16-inch motorized Fresnel lens designed specifically for the STORM XT52. Equipped with an Aputure Mount, this professional optical modifier amplifies the light output of the source up to 7 times, providing exceptional intensity for demanding broadcast, cinema, and audiovisual production environments.

Thanks to its spot-flood range of 18º to 50º, the Motorized CF16 Fresnel allows for precise control of the light beam, transitioning from a tight, focused beam to a wide, even coverage. Its motorized, double-extension focusing system extends the lens barrel at both ends to mechanically reduce size and overall weight while ensuring smooth beam falloff of high optical quality.

Motorized CF16 Fresnel: Advanced control and professional integration

The motorized focus system offers a full range of motion in 12 seconds, ensuring smooth and controlled transitions on set. Remote control is compatible with DMX, CRMX, Sidus Link , and Sidus Link Pro, allowing for easy integration into complex and synchronized lighting workflows.

Certified IP65, the Motorized CF16 Fresnel is protected against dust and water splashes, making it perfectly suited for outdoor shooting and harsh environments. It can also be used in manual mode via the optional CF16 Fresnel Manual Focus Cover.

For precise beam control, the product includes CF16 Barn Doors, essential for accurately shaping the light. Two transport solutions are available: the CF16 Rolling Soft Case or the CF16 Flight Case, allowing for the safe transport of the lens and its barn doors.

Practical use cases

In broadcast studios, the Aputure Motorized CF16 Fresnel allows for a focused, powerful 18° beam to illuminate distant subjects with maximum intensity. In a 50° flood configuration, it offers wide, even coverage ideal for TV sets or fictional scenes. Thanks to DMX or CRMX control, directors of photography can adjust the beam in real time without physically touching the fixture.
