What is the difference in types of illumination?
Incandescent – Standard bulb filament, usually 6 -120V, 20 – 60W. Color temperature is “warm” and tends to look yellow. Halogen – Usually low voltage, cooler, more intense illumination. Temperature is ideal for color photography. Fluorescent – A “cool” system which produces more light and has longer bulb life than incandescent bulbs. Fluorescent illumination offers a more desirable color temperature (4100ยบ Kelvin) with a “whiter” field of view and is more comfortable to the eyes.
