The Aputure STORM 400x is a high-output cinema LED monolight in the new STORM line, sold here in the V-Mount configuration. It targets productions that want a powerful single-fixture key with modern controls and battery-friendly operation.

Key features

  • STORM-series cinema LED monolight, V-Mount option for off-grid use
  • Compatible with Aputure's Bowens-mount modifier ecosystem (Fresnels, softboxes, snoots, etc.)
  • Designed as a primary key light for narrative, commercial, and event coverage

Available from Filmgear Canada, with Canada-wide shipping.

Compact STORM-series bi-color LED monolight for interviews, small commercial work, product video, and mobile owner-operator kits.

Works as a more serious key-light choice than small RGB fixtures when output, CCT control, modifier choice, and stand planning matter.

Pairs with CF7 Fresnel, softboxes, grids, power planning, V-Mount workflow, stands, and sandbags for a complete field package.

Natural comparison against Aputure 400x search terms, STORM 700x, STORM 80c kits, older 600-series lights, and amaran color fixtures.

Best when the buyer wants one dependable main fixture rather than several small accent lights trying to do a key-light job.
Check the exact V-Mount listing and current Shopify variant before a deadline-sensitive order, especially if the case, cables, yoke, power supply, reflector, or modifier package matters.

FAQ

Is the Aputure STORM 400x a good interview key light?

Yes. It is strongest as a compact main fixture for interviews and small commercial work when paired with the right softbox, grid, stand, and power plan.

Should I buy STORM 400x or three STORM 80c lights?

Choose STORM 400x when one stronger key is the job. Choose three STORM 80c lights when multiple small placements, color accents, and compact kit flexibility matter more.

Is Light Dome 150 too big for STORM 400x?

It can be more modifier than some small crews need. Match the softbox to room size, stand capacity, subject distance, and whether you need punch or close soft light.

Should I upgrade from Aputure 300x or 600-series lights to STORM 400x?

Upgrade when you want a newer STORM workflow, better tunable-white control, and a compact professional fixture. If maximum output is the constraint, compare STORM 700x or 1200x.

Where can I buy Aputure STORM 400x in Canada?
