Get started with Sidus Link

Welcome to Aputure lights and the Sidus Link app. In this short introductory course you’ll learn the basics of Aputure lights and how to connect to and change their settings with your phone using the Sidus Link app.

Two important things to help you get the most out of the course:

1. Each major section of the course is on a new page. You can navigate to the pages with buttons at the bottom or in the menu to the left under the heeding Intro Course.
2. Following along in each section will help you learn more effectively. Be ready to practice with your own phone and lights via directions in the practice sections.

I Love Aputure Lights

While there are many introductory and intermediate video light makers, I prefer Aputure. As a small video production company they strike a great balance of cost, quality, and features.
