The Amaran Ace 25C is a fantastic and versatile LED light. It’s small, battery-powered, bright and you can change its colours. I use several of these lights and they’re always part of my gear when I do a videoshoot.
The included mattebox works well, but is very small. This makes the light usually quite harsh and direct. That’s why I created a custom light hood.
The Amaran Ace has 4 magnets in the light itself. This is useful for attaching my lightbox. I’ve used 4 steel screws to make them attachable.
On the front, I’ve created 4 holes where small magnets are placed. Using those magnets, a custom designed filter ring with a filter can be installed and removed. The filters use small steel nails to be attached. This way I can create multiple filters and change quickly.
