Just trying the app out, very cool way to control lights for an entire set from one device. Would be great to have a set mapping feature to visualize light locations from the control panel and be able to click in and control from the lighting map rather than just the console panel.

I use mainly the lighting diagram from this app and this has a potential to be the top contender in filmmaking app space ( lighting diagram / story boarding etc. ) in Android market because there are no such noteworthy app. But still it needs work. There are some small issues , bugs and difficulties that needs to be sorted out. Also , some new features needs to be added. If there's any way to join beta , I can do so and give my feedbacks to make the app better. Please develope it further.

This app is really cool! Was on set a few times where the gaffer wanted to do a spotlight fade in and we had an aputure light about 15 feet in the air. I used the app to change the intensity of the light and adjust settings if needed without needing to take the light down. It saves a lot of time and I just love how convenient it is to use! Definitely would recommend for film sets due to the efficiency of it! It's also super easy to use as well!

Once you get used to the interface (which is not that hard to do), it is such an intuitive app to use. I don't think there's anything else like it out there. Not only controlling/syncing the lights from the app but you can also make floor plans for shoots within the app which is super useful and is the only free app that does this.

I freakin'love this app and the Aputure series lights that work with it. No need to move the lights up and down to adjust or ask the gaffer to adjust - you can watch the monitor and tweak away. The built-in FX are great, even better is making your own. Want a real fire effect? Use the app to record a fire - now you have a real fire FX. Since this app has been upgraded, I want to change all lights to Aputure. The speed alone makes this invaluable on indie film where there is NEVER enough time!

This is a game changer! Having the ability to control all my lights from my phone allows me to make adjustments and see the changes on my monitor in realtime. No more running back and forth. Plus, the user interface is very intuitive and allows for many variations in control.

Amazing app, no ads, enough features available for free for any beginner and amateur, with good offers for professionals. The Android side is a little late on receiving new features but the long awaited MusicFX are finally here and IT ADDS SO MUCH TO YOUR SHOOTS. The app doesn't seem overwhelming even for a beginner and there's always things you learn as you play with the controls. I use it with my Aputure MC and it has already boosted my creative potential. I'm still finding new ways to use it.

Amazing App! Makes it a joy to work with my Aputure lights, especially on a larger set. Being able to make minor adjustments on the fly at a moments notice or completely change a scene in an instance is a lifesaver. Not to mention the continuous improvements and extra features like the Scene Builder. What is there not to like!?

Sidus Link is absolutely a great app for a videographer and even photographer. This app provides lighting control system, virtual scene, script roll and shooting schedule. There are also some shooting tools, optics calculator and light meter. As a videographer, I would highly recommend this app to all of you, as this brings much more convinient when shooting.

This app works so well with the Aputure ecosystem of lights. Whether it's the little MCs, 300 II, or Nova it helps you easily adjust your scene. The best part is you can continue to look at your monitor while changing levels, colors, fx, etc on your phone. I haven't gotten to push it to its limits yet but the possibilities truly are infinite. Thanks Aputure for this wonderful tool.
