ade1 Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Hi, <p> I'm shooting a still life using 2 small torch globes and was after advice about what would be the best lighting (and film) to use, tungsten or flash?? the globes will be placed inside a baby dolls head for more illuminance. The colour balance would obviously be upset, but im not sure which way......i'm shooting 4x5 (colour amd B&W) and obviously haven't chosen film yet !! <p> TA ade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemastre Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 I'd use flash, setting the aperture to underexpose a third or a half stop and using a shutter speed that would allow the torch globes to be seen well. Then I'd try some other exposure combinations and pick the one I liked best. If you use studio strobes, shut off the modeling lights before you open the shutter.
