Hi all
I have purchased a pink coloured tube for my 2x24w T5 light fixture which holds right now 6.500K and 10.000K tubes. I want to try different combinations and see how the tank looks like. I think the best way to do this is to take some shots as our (human beings) visual memory is very bad. The problem is that the camera will have to take images as close to reality as possible and the different shots should be comparable.
I can imagine the first part: tripod, full tank shot, ISO 400-800... but what about white balance? I have a LUMIX bridge camera (FZ48) and I can chose between daylight, cloudy, shade, incandescent, fluorescent, flash, automatic balance or manual (setting temperature).
The aim is doing what is shown in the lighting tutorial comparing cheap T5 bulbs...
Cheers,
Jordi
