LITES Rental Invests in Aputure XT26, CS15 and F14 Fresnel – Raising the Bar for Feature Film Lighting in Belgium Belgian-based LITES Rental, a respected name in the European film industry, has made a significant investment in Aputure’s flagship fixtures: the ELECTRO STORM XT26, CS15, and the powerful F14 Fresnel accessory. This move underscores LITES’ commitment to providing cutting-edge, high-performance lighting solutions for high-end cinema productions. As a trusted partner on numerous feature films, commercials, and television series, LITES has long been recognized as a go-to rental house for cinematographers and gaffers seeking both quality and reliability. Their choice to expand with Aputure gear speaks volumes about the brand’s rapid evolution into the world of professional, large-scale filmmaking. The Aputure XT26 and CS15 stand out for their exceptional output, stunning color fidelity (TLCI/CRI 95+), and robust build quality, making them ideal for demanding production environments. The IP65 weatherproof rating ensures full functionality in rain, dust, or harsh on-location conditions—perfect for outdoor shoots where performance can't be compromised. Combined with the F14 Fresnel, these units deliver intense punch and beam control that rivals traditional HMI setups, but with the added benefits of LED efficiency, lower power draw, and precise color tuning. “We’re seeing a clear shift in the industry towards versatile, location-ready LED fixtures without sacrificing quality or intensity,” says our contact at LITES Rental. “Aputure’s top-tier line gives us the flexibility and performance that feature film sets demand.” With this investment, LITES reaffirms its position as a lighting pioneer in the Benelux region, while reinforcing Aputure’s place among serious contenders in high-end film lighting.
