Overview
The Aputure NOVA 9-Degrees 2x1 Tunable White LED Light Panel (3-Light Kit) is a professional lighting solution designed for filmmakers, studios, and location shoots requiring high-output, directional illumination. Each panel features a tight 9° beam angle capable of producing up to 29,730 lux at 16.4' (5 m), with adjustable color temperatures from 1800 to 20,000K, making it ideal for simulating natural sunlight or achieving precise cinematic lighting effects.
This 3-light kit includes three NOVA 9° 2x1 fixtures mounted on a removable yoke for creating a larger vertical light array. The package also comes with flat diffusers, AC power cables, and safety chains, allowing for immediate deployment in both single-panel and multi-light configurations.

Performance & Design
Impressive Output & Beam
The NOVA 9° 2x1 delivers a concentrated, long-throw shaft of light perfect for defined shadow edges, specular highlights, or simulating sunlight through windows. Stepless dimming from 0.1–100% is adjustable via four dimming curves: linear, exponential, logarithmic, and S-shaped. The fixture’s tight 9° beam preserves intensity over long distances while the flat diffuser expands it to 80° for softer illumination.
Advanced Color Accuracy
The BLAIR chipset with five different diode types ensures rich, natural colors, extended red response, and accurate skin tones. Adjustable green/magenta correction allows full compliance with ASC MITC standards, while metrics such as CRI, TLCI, TM-30, CQS, and SSI confirm superior color fidelity for color-critical applications.
Connectivity & Control
Operate the fixture via onboard controls or the Sidus Link app. Networked productions are supported with DMX512 in/out, Art-Net/sACN, CRMX wireless (100 m range), and Bluetooth. Multiple fan and output modes, combined with four pixel zones, allow precise lighting effects. Batch firmware updates are possible through Sidus Link Pro, Sidus Link, USB drive, or DMX.
Durability & Rigging
Built for demanding productions, each panel weighs 17.2 kg without yoke (19.5 kg with yoke) and features a stackable design for multi-light arrays. QuickClip accessory mounting and removable yoke provide flexible rigging. IP65-rated housing ensures weather resistance, making the NOVA 9° 2x1 reliable for studio, on-stage, or outdoor use.
Included Accessories
The kit includes removable yokes, flat diffusers, AC power cables, safety chains, and a 3-light yoke kit with bare ends. Optional clamps, risers, and DMX or AC passthrough cables allow for complex multi-panel setups.
