Aputure Light Dome Mini III Reviews

flat pack design is worth it

Flat pack is so much better for travel than the V2 design. Highly worth the expense.

Just get it

There are several other modifiers on the market like this one by other manufacturers. I wanted to stick to a well known name brand with proven quality, because I will be using this on my many upcoming travels and didn't want to worry about it breaking down. So far it checks all the boxes and the light quality coming out is very nice.

Will this work with the upcoming Aputure Storme 80?
Asked by: Robert
The Aputure Light Dome Mini III (22.8") can work on the Aputure STORM 80c BLAIR-CG LED Monolight (US) but only with the use of this adapter, BH #APMPBMAS80C (https://bhpho.to/40dICff).
