Introducing the Aputure NOVA 9° 2×1 Travel Kit

The Aputure NOVA 9° 2×1 Travel Kit is a professional LED lighting solution designed for cinematographers, gaffers, and lighting designers seeking a compact light source capable of replicating the power and precision of natural sunlight. This kit is specifically designed for film, television, and advertising productions requiring a narrow, high-intensity beam and excellent portability.

Thanks to its 2×1 and ultra-tight 9° native beam angle, the Aputure NOVA 9° 2×1 Travel Kit projects extremely focused, directional light over long distances. It excels at creating realistic sunbeams, hard, defined shadows, and in setups where traditional LED panels lack punch and precision.

BLAIR Engine and Advanced Spectral Quality

At the heart of the Aputure NOVA 9° 2×1 Travel Kit lies the BLAIR Engine, based on a five-diode architecture combining Blue, Lime, Amber, Indigo, and Red. This advanced technology ensures exceptional color reproduction with high CRI and TLCI values 95, as well as precise white point control over a wide CCT range from 1800 K to 20,000K.

The BLAIR engine also incorporates an ASC MITC ±G , allowing for fine-tuning of green/magenta casts. This flexibility makes the projector ideal for blending with existing ambient light sources, enhancing skin tones, and faithfully reproducing daylight.

Long-range projection and modularity

With its highly focused beam, the Aputure NOVA 9° 2×1 Travel Kit maintains high intensity over long distances, making it ideal for use through windows, with reflectors, or to create highly directional hard light effects. The included flat diffuser widens the beam angle to 80° while maintaining consistent and controlled luminance.

Designed to evolve with production needs, the NOVA 9° 2×1 can be stacked in multi-projector configurations using multiple yokes, creating powerful directional sources that rival natural light. It shares the same QuickClip as the NOVA II 2×1, ensuring complete compatibility and rapid deployment.

Practical examples with the Aputure NOVA 9° 2×1 Travel Kit

The Aputure NOVA 9° 2×1 Travel Kit is perfectly suited for both studio and outdoor shoots thanks to its robust design and IP65. It can be used as a directional key light, integrated into truss structures, or deployed as a main light for powerful and realistic daylight effects, even in demanding environments.
