Lights I'm using now give a orangish/pinkish color on the pictures. Should I be using those GE reveal lights or something? I'm shooting objects not people if that matters. Thanks for the help on this.

If you want to do it on the cheap, using regular light bulbs, just make sure the whitebalance on your camera is set to the exact white balance rating of the lights you're using. Example: 6500k lights, matched with 6500k WB.
Here's a guide:

You'll probably want to mount the camera on a tripod because you're likely not going to be able to get a super sharp image hand-holding using such a low light output.Last edited by xenigo; 01-13-2011, 11:06 AM. -
So it's all about adjusting the camera to balance with the bulbs I'm using now? I am using a tripod, guess I'll have to dig the manual out and figure out how to change the cmaera settingsIf you want to do it on the cheap, using regular light bulbs, just make sure the whitebalance on your camera is set to the exact white balance rating of the lights you're using.

Or if your camera does not have a Kelvin setting, look at the white balancing part of your cameras manual.

Learn to use your white balance as you have already been told.
The way we do it is to buy stobes that shoot in a daylight setting so if the sun is coming in a window or from somewhere everything will balance out.
A cheap way is most photography stores sell light fixtures costing about $20 which you can then use for your work by loading the little curly Q daylight fluorescent in them. These bulbs cost about $8 a piece and last for a long time.
Another way is you can gel your lights to get the desired effect you like or you can turn full circle and find out the kelvin output of your lights and set your camera's white balance to match it. Some camera's have an AWB setting is which the camera picks the setting you should use. This automatic white balance setting sounds like something you should check into.
One more thing to check out is post production. If you shoot the pictures using the wrong white balance you can always modify this with programs like lightroom and photoshop and fix it.
Good luck and I hope this gives you a couple of options to check out.Comment
