What BULB do you guys use for taking pictures of automotive DIYs?
In a Toyota forum I write up automotive repair DIYs under lousy lighting
conditions (like many people do). Only I use a good camera (Nikon D5000) and good back lighting to augment the camera flash. It's cheap. I buy 200 watt bulbs from ACE Hardware and put it in an aluminum light fixture with clamps so I can secure the light. I change the directdion of light constantly so a stand wouldn't work. Problem is, I bust a bulb almost every time. When these bulbs are hot, they break the filament if you drop or move the light suddenly. Is there a better high lumens bulb that is sturdier than the "regular" 200W bulbs from ACE? |
