Product Overview
The Aputure STORM 1000c Cine Kit is a full-color RGB LED monolight package for Canadian gaffers, studios, rental houses, and commercial crews that want the 1000c head plus a more complete Fresnel, barndoors, and support path instead of buying the base fixture first. Order it through Filmgear Canada in Canada with Canadian dealer and manufacturer-warranty support and no U.S. retailer import or tariff surprise for Canadian buyers; contact us before a deadline-sensitive shoot for current availability.
Product Video
Use the official STORM 1000c videos to judge color control, fixture scale, and why the Cine Kit package matters when the shoot needs optical control from day one.
The Cine Kit is the better STORM 1000c route when the first job already needs controlled beam shaping, hard-light direction, and a package that behaves like a production fixture instead of only a light head. It is not just a different title; it changes the first-purchase planning.
Buyers comparing the STORM 1000c Cine Kit with the Wide Reflector version should decide by accessory certainty. If you know you need CF12-style Fresnel control, barn doors, and support hardware, the Cine Kit can prevent piecemeal buying. If you already own the accessories or need a custom package, the Wide Reflector version may be cleaner.
Key Features
- Full-color 1000W STORM fixture package for professional RGB and white-light production work.
- Cine Kit path suits crews that want Fresnel-style beam control, barn doors, skid/support planning, and a more complete first package.
- Designed for buyers comparing STORM 1000c Cine Kit, STORM 1000c Wide Reflector, and STORM 1200x.
- Strong for commercial, music-video, rental, studio, and color-heavy lighting packages where accessory decisions are known.
- Helps avoid buying a large color head first and only later discovering the optical-control package was required.
How It Compares
The Cine Kit is the right purchase only when the accessories solve the buyer’s real first-shoot problem.
| Option | Choose it when | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| STORM 1000c Cine Kit | Choose it when full-color output plus Fresnel, barn doors, skid/support, and production control are needed from day one. | More package than necessary if the buyer already owns or does not need those accessories. |
| STORM 1000c with Wide Reflector | Choose it when you want the 1000c head and reflector first while building accessories separately. | Requires more separate planning before the fixture is production-ready. |
| STORM 1200x Cine Kit | Choose it when bi-color white-light output is more important than full-color control. | Different creative role; do not treat it as the same light with more power. |
| STORM 700x Cine Kit | Choose it when smaller crew handling and lower package size matter more than 1000c-class output and color. | Less output and not the same flagship full-color fixture class. |

Who Is This For?
Choose this for commercial gaffers, studio owners, rental houses, music-video crews, and production teams that need one flagship full-color STORM package with optical control.
Who Should Choose Something Else?
Choose something else if your work is mostly white-light output, close interviews, small creator rooms, low-budget accents, or custom accessory builds. Compare STORM 1200x, STORM 700x, STORM 400x, or the Wide Reflector version.

| Color workflow | Aputure BLAIR-CG full-color STORM system |
| Kit role | Cine package for optical control and production support planning |
| Best package question | Cine Kit vs Wide Reflector depends on whether Fresnel and support pieces are needed immediately |

FAQ
What is the difference between STORM 1000c Cine Kit and Wide Reflector?
The Cine Kit is for crews that want a fuller production-control package from the first purchase. The Wide Reflector version is leaner and makes more sense when accessories will be chosen separately.
Should I buy STORM 1000c Cine Kit or STORM 1200x Cine Kit?
Choose STORM 1000c Cine Kit for full-color RGB production work. Choose STORM 1200x Cine Kit when stronger bi-color white-light output is the main requirement.
Is the Cine Kit worth it for rental or studio use?
It can be, because rental and studio packages often need beam control, barn doors, support hardware, and predictable accessory workflow rather than only the head.
Who should not buy the STORM 1000c Cine Kit first?
Do not buy it first if you only need a compact key, a lower-cost creator light, several small RGB accents, or mostly white-light headroom. Those jobs point to smaller STORM fixtures or the 1200x.
