FAQ

Can I use this narrow reflector on the STORM CS32?

Yes. The CS32 uses the Aputure Mount, and Aputure lists the 20°, 25°, 35° and 50° XT52 reflectors as compatible with it. Reflectors for the STORM 1200x and 1000c use the ProLock Bowens mount, so they are the wrong fit for the CS32 and XT52.

How much tighter and brighter is the narrow reflector than the stock 35° reflector?

On the XT52 at 5,600K the 25° reflector gives 77,500 lux at 5 m, almost double the 41,900 lux of the 35° reflector that ships with the light. For an even tighter beam over long distances, Aputure's STORM Parallel Beam 70 produces a 5° beam.

How does the XT52 with a narrow reflector compare with an HMI?

Aputure states that with a narrow reflector the STORM XT52 is significantly brighter than a similarly focused ARRI M90, and that its 35° reflector reading of 41,900 lux at 5 m already exceeds a 6,000W HMI fixture.
