light quality is one of the cornerstones of basic video production quality. Every picture, video included, are really nothing more than light, so as your eyes light up very much depends on your photo.

One of the newest ways to make your video production is the new light, energy-efficient light bulbs as compact fluorescent lamps are known. I think there are several reasons why the light bulb compact flo soon the choice will be in the video.

Energy saving lamps (Compact-flo, as they are called) are gaining popularity as a new “green” way to light your home. Now you can find anywhere bulbs. Even before the consumer compact fluorescent lamps have gained popularity, compact flo increasingly used in the video. You have several distinct advantages over traditional video lights. The benefits add up to save money and greater ease in production.

traditional video-lamps are generally tungsten halogen. They get hotter than a firecracker. You can easily burn your finger on it. I even burned a hole in the screen when the light hit a little too close to the wall. Oops.

Compact fluorescent lamps, warm on the other side not at all. They are very cool and much easier on the eyes. This feature in itself makes me want to buy. Sitting under a halogen light is so hot as to be terribly uncomfortable. who will sit next to them sweating a storm, unless the room is very cool.

In addition, if you look directly at the bulb burns out, halogens are so bright they stain. This type of lamp heat throughout the room FAST. This leads us to have to fit the air, provided that this is not a sound. If it’s loud, it remains off when you get a better sound performance and the only fried. No fun! Tungsten-halogen produce almost as much heat as they are easy!

Besides staying in a cool, compact flo lights even less power than any other type of lamp. (You do not waste energy producing unwanted heat!) Is one of the most important things that make it a “green alternative”. Compact fluorescent lamps are compared crank an impressive amount of light for the power, other types of bulbs. You can help with that would more than half the power that you usually need.

The light emitted by compact fluorescent lamps, nice, soft and diffuse. The ones I use are all balanced in the blue colors, similar to sunlight. Standard fluorescent lights are green so it’s a big difference. Compact Flo would fit right into the sun and do not mess with white balance your camera like an orange would be Halo.

Each compact bulb flo I’ve ever seen is for you already spread by the addition of white color in the glass. This does not mean that you never need to add further spread, but the right of the box you’ve got some nice spread.

All in all, I think CFLs are a great addition to the world of video production. I bet this guy, the wall of a hole burned I would agree.
