Benefits of the 3 choices:


Flash/Strobe Lighting is used exclusively for Still Photography.
It produces a burst of light in sync with the shutter of the camera.
Creates a Daylight Kelvin light source for optimal color and contrast dynamic range.

The Daylight Kelvin Temperature bulbs offer the best lighting source you can get due to their broad color spectrum. Flash/Strobe lighting delivers a burst of daylight temperature light, between 5000 and 6500 degrees Kelvin.

Flash Lights also are equipped with the essential modeling lamp which lets us preview the lighting effect (to judge contrast and where shadows fall) prior to making exposure.

Cool Fluorescent Continuous Lighting
Fluorescent bulbs are extremely efficient requiring only 1/4th the electrical current of Halogen.
Their efficiency results in a bulb that runs completely cool.
Heat generation from the bulb is negligible.
Continuous Daylight Fluorescent Lighting makes Flash/Strobe lighting obsolete because it has the advantage of being a Continuous light source making set up much easier than with Flash and requires no trigger sync to the camera.

Much like the traditional flash light head the fluorescent light head comes with fittings for an umbrella pole and softbox mounts, power cord straps and more of the features that are expected of professional grade lighting equipment.

Power, efficiency, and easy to setup these units leave little more to desire. Fluorescent Continuous Lighting is being used for movie, video and still photo production today. It delivers a smooth warm highly diffused light source.

Professional fluorescent bulbs come in both Indoor and Outdoor Kelvin ratings making them  superior choice for Movie, Video, and Still Photography production work.

Fluorescent Bulbs last a very long time while Halogen bulbs require replacing much more often (Dramatic heating and cooling takes place with every use). Fluorescent bulbs are now available in Daylight Kelvin temperatures. This is great news for almost every type of image acquisition

Fluorescent light bank

The fluorescent light bank is a fluorescent light head that is capable of holding multiple fluorescent light bulbs.

Fluorescent Light Head Set

The Fluorescent Light Head Set comes complete with everything you need to quickly get started. Included in the set is a Light Bank, softbox, fluorescent lamps.

 Tungsten Halogen Continuous Lighting
This type has been used in movie and television production for many years.
It is capable of delivering very high brightness output.
Halogen production bulbs create a 3200 degrees Kelvin or indoor light source.
It is widely considered the best overall lighting source for production.
It delivers a smooth warm highly diffused light source which is almost always the most desirable type of light source for video and still photography production.
All Halogen bulbs get very hot. Extreme caution must be practiced when using them to avoid serious accidents. Halogen lighting will heat up a studio as fast as any portable heater.

Professional quality digital photography requires lots of light. Tungsten Halogen Continuous Lighting has been used in movie and television production for many decades and is proven to be a reliable source of high intensity light. Capable of delivering very high brightness output, Tungsten/Halogen production bulbs create a 3200 degrees Kelvin or Indoor light source.

With all the amenities of a strobe light head, holders for softbox and barndoors and a pole holder for a studio umbrella, has the added benefit of being an always on.

There are two Kelvin Temperatures (Whiteness) used in Production Lighting. Halogen at 3200 degrees Kelvin referred to as indoor and Daylight or outdoor at 5600 degrees Kelvin which are available in several different bulb methods.

The Halogen bulbs you get at a hardware stores are NOT production accurate temperatures. They are usually around 2700 K for Halogen light bulbs and most of the new Edison based fluorescent bulbs are under 4800 K. Don't count on hardware stores as a supplier for bulbs. Always purchase bulbs from a production lighting supplier.
