A pioneer of lighting tools for creators, amaran has just announced the launch of the amaran Ace 25x and 25c, brand-new bi-color and full-color compact LED lights that pack double the brightness of similarly sized lights, designed for on-the-go creators.
These brilliantly bright yet compact lights come with the amaran Ace Lock quick-release mount, an introduction to amaran’s all-new ultra-fast and secure locking ecosystem, which allows creators to snap their light onto a camera or tripod in less than one second, even with one hand. Available in five colorways and as an all-in-one creator kit, the amaran Ace 25x and 25c deliver best-in-class brightness – up to 32W of powerful light output – in a format that is, amaran says, “ready for any and all kinds of action.”
“The amaran Ace 25x and 25c are designed specifically for on-the-go creators – travel vloggers, influencers, wedding videographers, product photographers, and so many others who have embraced video to tell stories – who are constantly pushing boundaries and exploring new approaches to content creation. When amaran re-launched as its own unique brand identity, it was with these creatives in mind,” said Aaron Tsai, amaran VP of Marketing. “From a brand-new quick-release mount to capture moments with speed and confidence to having double the battery life and charging speed of competitors to sustain long shoots, the small yet mighty amaran Ace 25x and 25c are a must-have for any on-the-go creator.”
The amaran Ace symbolizes the brand’s expansion and commitment to content creators worldwide who require tools that enable them to shoot in fast-paced environments. Here is a more detailed description of the feature highlights included in the new lights:
The Arrival of the amaran Ace Lock Ecosystem
The amaran Ace 25x and 25c are the brand’s first products to feature the Ace Lock, an entirely new quick-release mount ecosystem that is more efficient and secure. It keeps the light stable while allowing for incredibly fast mounting adjustments attaching onto a camera takes less than one second with the included amaran Ace Lock to Cold Shoe Adapter, compared to traditional cold shoe mounts of around eight seconds. Whether used on-camera or a tripod, the amaran Ace can be snapped on in a blink, allowing creatives to save valuable setup time while ensuring they never miss the perfect shot.
Best-in-Class Brightness
With up to 32W of powerful light output in Boost Mode – double that of other comparable pocket-sized on-camera lights – these lights are the brightest in their class. The amaran Ace 25x and 25c’s optical design can output up to 6,320 lux and 4,440 lux of soft, natural light at 0.5m at 5,600K, respectively, which can easily light up any space while remaining compact and weighing less than a pound.
Express Your Creativity: Choose From Five Colors
The amaran Ace 25x and 25c are available in five colors – charcoal, white, silver, pink, and green – giving creatives a chance to express their creativity without compromising on quality. Personalize your setup with lighting that matches your aesthetic and gear.
Long Battery Life for Uninterrupted Shoots
Content creators need to know they can create on the move without having to interrupt their flow to recharge. With a runtime of up to 4 hours 40 minutes in Silent Mode and 70 minutes in Standard Mode – double the battery life compared to competitors – creators can shoot confidently knowing that their content will be well-lit throughout the entire shoot. Plus, a fast recharge time of 40 minutes from 0-90% means that when it is time to reboot, downtime can be kept to a minimum. Less time waiting, more time creating.
Customizable Multi-Action Shortcuts
Spend less time navigating complex interfaces and more time on the creative process with a simplified, colored menu screen and the ability to create custom shortcuts. Recall frequently used settings such as CCT, FX, or Boost Mode with a double-click or long-press. Customize workflows to fit any creative project with the shortcut button and the amaran Ace’s intuitive menu screen so creators can focus on what they do best – creating captivating content.
The amaran Ace 25x and 25c also come available in a travel-ready kit, including all the necessary tools for mobile content creation. With an added Light Control Grid and Mini Tripod, packed in a protective Carrying Case, securely transport gear between locations with the confidence that it’s protected – and that you’re always prepared.
Quick Magnetic Mounting Design
With the amaran Ace’s magnetic front accessory mount, creators can shape their light in seconds from hard to soft with the Dome Diffuser or Light Control Grid. Its integrated back silicone pad allows the amaran Ace to be attached to any magnetic surface for easy or last minute mounting. Save time and streamline the content creation workflow.
Power Devices in a Pinch with Reverse Charging
For emergency power situations, the amaran Ace 25x and 25c can be transformed into a portable power solution to power other compact lights, cameras, or even a phone via the USB-C PD charging port. This powerful multi-tool can keep your shoots running without interruptions.
