About This Product

Unicorn Films offers the Aputure Light Dome SE as a travel-friendly, 16‑rod parabolic softbox built to turn Bowens‑mount COB lights into flattering, controllable soft sources. Its 85×85×45cm (33.46×33.46×17.72in) profile and highly reflective interior generate smooth center‑to‑edge gradients, creating natural skin tones, round catchlights, and consistent results for interviews, portraits, and product work on compact sets.

For nuanced control, the Light Dome SE ships with two front diffusers 1.5‑stop for more punch and 2.5‑stop for gentler wrap plus a 1.5‑stop inner baffle to even the source and tame hotspots. The included 45° fabric grid tightens the beam, reduces spill, and preserves contrast, making it easier to keep light off backgrounds and the lens axis. Flexible fiberglass rods maintain a circular shape for pleasing catchlights while keeping weight low for lean rigs and small stands.

Compatible with standard Bowens mounts, the Light Dome SE pairs seamlessly with Amaran 60/100/200 series and Aputure 120d/300d/600d-class fixtures, as well as other Bowens lights. Weighing roughly 1.1kg, it packs down to 60×18×18cm for efficient travel, with a carry bag included to keep kits protected between locations.

  • 33.5-inch parabolic softness: Large aperture with compact depth for flattering interviews and portraits.
  • Dual front diffusion + inner baffle: Tailor softness, punch, and highlight control for different sets.
  • 45° fabric grid: Manage spill and maintain contrast for clean, cinematic frames.
  • Bowens universal mount: Works across Amaran/Aputure COBs and other Bowens fixtures.
  • Lightweight build: ~1.1kg with fiberglass rods and travel bag for location-ready workflows.

 

Rent the Aputure Light Dome SE from Unicorn Films to add a fast, professional soft source with precise spill control to Bowens COB kits optimized for interviews, portraits, and product sets that demand reliable softness and efficient setup.
