Aputure 600d Pro with a 5' Lantern — a recent Felt Studios shoot in Indian River County, FL
The Aputure 600d Pro is the workhorse of our electric package, and for good reason. At 600W of daylight-balanced output, it hits hard enough to punch through a large diffusion overhead, create a convincing window source in a dark interior, or supplement full Florida sun without disappearing into the ambient. It's also quiet, controllable, and genuinely idiot-proof on set — which matters when your gaffer is also pulling cable.
We rent it daily from our Vero Beach location and deliver across the Treasure Coast — Fort Pierce, Stuart, West Palm Beach, and points in between. Here's what you need to know before you book.

What "600W" Actually Means in Florida Daylight
People sometimes ask if this light is powerful enough to compete with direct Florida sun. The honest answer: it depends on how you're using it. Straight sun-to-sun outdoors at midday, you're not winning. But the 600d Pro is extremely effective when you:
- Use it as an overhead source through an 8x8 or 12x12 silk, creating a large soft key that shapes the ambient
- Backlight through diffusion to separate talent from background
- Shoot in the shade or on a covered location and use it as a primary key
- Work during golden hour, overcast days, or in the early morning window
- Pair it with a negative fill (black flag) to increase perceived output ratio
Florida tip: The 600d Pro through an 8x8 Litedam or Ultrabounce is one of our most-requested combos for outdoor lifestyle and commercial work here. It produces a soft, wrapping key that reads natural — not "lighting" — and it's fast to set up with our C-stand and arm combo.
Modifiers We Stock for the 600d Pro
We carry a Bowens-mount modifier kit that pairs with the 600d Pro. What's available with your rental:
- Fresnel attachment — converts to a hard, throw-able spot for background work or motivated sources through windows
- 5' Lantern — 360° softbox, excellent for fill, practicals, or event-style ambient
- 4x4 and 6x6 frames with diffusion — our C-stand set-ups for creating a large overhead or window source
- Gel kit — CTO/CTB warmers, color fx, and 1/4, 1/2, full CTB for daylight/tungsten matching

Power Requirements — Can It Run on Your Generator?
The 600d Pro draws approximately 720W from the wall at full output. Our Honda EU7000is handles it easily — you can run the 600d Pro, 300d II, and two 120d units simultaneously off the EU7000 with power to spare.
If you're running off a building circuit, you need a 20A circuit (or two 15A circuits via separate breakers). Do not run it on the same circuit as air conditioning or other high-draw appliances. The ballast is fan-cooled and generates moderate heat — keep it off carpet and out of enclosed cases while running.

Our most common single-package configuration that includes the 600d Pro:
- Aputure 600d Pro (key)

- Honda EU7000is + 100ft stinger + C7 distro
