What type of light bulbs to buy for a homemade lighting kit?
I am a poor college student, I can't afford a lighting kit at the moment, so spare the advice about splurging on real equipment!
I bought some hardware clamp lights from home depot that I plan on using to light my subjects. I took plain, household light bulbs out of my sockets and they 1. aren't bright enough and 2. give off a tint, even when I change with the white balance.
What type of bulbs should I purchase? I need something bright, white and cheap!
Good answers above, but before you panic and perhaps so you can do something tonight, try setting a custom white balance. "Tungsten" is better than "AWB," but it can still be off. Check this out:
(I'm sorry if that is not showing up as a link. It looks okay in the "preview," but it's not coming through as a link. Copy and paste the line into your browser.)
Read the commentary. You do not have to run out and buy a Digital White Card, either. Start by using a white piece of paper. A matte photo paper with nothing printed on it is an excellent choice.
