Posted on Jul 22, 2025 by Adam Duckworth

The Aputure Spotlight Mini transforms the 80c into a precision lighting tool for creatives

A long-awaited accessory for the popular Aputure Storm 80c is finally here: the Spotlight Mini, a compact ellipsoidal projector that transforms the light into a precise light-shaping tool, capable of creating controlled beams. The Spotlight Mini features a rotating barrel, allowing for the granular orientation of both the integrated 4-leaf cutter and modifiers. The Spotlight Mini comes with a 19° or 36° lens with room in the soft case for both lenses. An adjustable iris is available as an optional accessory.

Spotlight Mini features include a Mini ProLock Bowens Mount, a rotating barrel design, a gel clip, gobo clip and 10 M-Size gobos for projecting fine patterns.

No UK prices are set but Euro prices are €338 MSRP (excluding VAT).
