The chipset in the MC Pro provides expanded color controls and CCT range from 2,000K to 10,000K with green-magenta adjustment. It can reproduce more than 90% of all colors within the Rec. 2020 color space and produce faithful skin tones with a CRI/TLCI score of 96, SSI (D56) of 72, and SSI (Tungsten) of 82, consistent with Aputure's high color accuracy standards across all product lines.

Advanced Controls and Customizations

For full creative freedom, filmmakers can fine-tune the MC Pro's color using advanced HSI with white-point adjustability, RGB, GEL, or xy controls. The MC Pro also comes with 15 built-in System FX and other advanced features unique to the Aputure and amaran ecosystems, including Sidus Pro FX such as Picker FX and Music FX, which can be saved using the Sidus Link app for easy access to different lighting modes.
