Hi Chris

Many thanks for that. Sounds like really good advice.

Cheers

Hi Gartmore

I am awaiting three daylight tubes which apparently run at 6000K so through the difused glass will be more like 5250K. What happens when I put a coloured gel on there Lord only knows but I will measure it and see. Yes I can do a custom white balance so all in all it will work out one way or the other.

Hope that you are well

Hi Chris

I thought that was the route to go. They are standard miniature fluorescents so should be fairly easy to get hold of. I really did not want to keep "Warming them up" in ACR but if needs must then needs must.

Thanks for your help

Ian

I have obtained an advertising light box powered by 3x600mm fluorescent tubes which seem to run at about 3250K a bit on the low side I agree. Can anyone recommend alternative tubes in order to bring this up a bit closer to daylight levels remembering the constraints of my tube size. Any other advice would be gratefully accepted
Thank you

Welcome Mark

I am just down the road from you at J23 of the M1. Watch the pennies when you first start is the best that I can offer in advice but really in the long run it is pretty good.

Ian

Hi folks

Many thanks for all your help. Think I will give it a go and see what happens.

Once again, many thanks

Ian

Hi Stefan

Many thanks. I take it you have used this remote with satisfaction.

Hi all

I would like to dabble in some long multi exposure star work and am thinking in using a programmable remote trigger. Has anyone out there got some experience of both the triggers and long multi exposure shooting? The exposure time I am thinking of is in the region of 4 minutes each and I think that I would need 20 to 30 shots for what I want to achieve.
Being basically lazy I would like to programme the remote and just lie down beside it inspecting the back of my eye lids whilst it did all the work.

Many thanks

Ian

Many thanks guys and gels and any other sort that there may be. Advice taken and lense on order, will be delivered on Monday.

Thanks once again for all your help

Ian

What is the general opinion of the above lense.

Cheers

Ian
