Is this true?

[gisela]

Hi everybody,

is it true that Profoto monoheads are the only

one that don't change the color temperature when using less power?

[ronald_moravec1]

You won`t get an answer because nobody has tried everything.

 

I`ll start, My Normans do not.

None of my strobes seem to, if they do, it's within an acceptable amount and doesn't adversely affect image quality. I have several brands, my main studio lights are S+P.

Thanks for the fast responce!!

Ryan,what are S+P's.

Sorry...i'm a newbie.

My white Lightnings seem to shift pretty blue at low power, but I can fix it just fine in post.

No.

Basically, all the more expensive "pro" lineups will have consistent color temperature across the entire power range, vs for example alienbees which won't. Of course, this is not meant to degrade alienbees in any way, it's up to you to decide if that's important to you or not.

My Novatrons seem to have consistent color temp regardless of power setting. Even my Vivitar units do. To my knowledge, color temp shifts with hot lights if you try to put them on dimmers, but should be consistent or pretty close to consistent on both studio strobes and on-camera flash because you're varying the duration of the flash, not its intensity.

Where it would be an issue would be if you were using multiple lights on different power settings for one subject eg one on max, one on min - no simple colour correction there.

Thanks to everybody for the responce!!

Still don't know what light S&P are.

Maybe somebody can help me out.

S+P is a brand.
