I have been curious recently about the GE "Reveal" lightbulbs (which are supposed to give truer light and improve colors) and how they would affect photographs. Like many others, I do a lot of shooting indoors and there is not always ample sunlight. Longer exposures with a standard incandescent bulb often result in an orangish tint to pictures, even with auto-white balance. So I decided to do a test run and see if there was a difference with the Reveal bulb.
Test 1: Standard 60W Incandescent Lightbulb
Test 2: 15W Compact Fluorescent Lightbulb
Test 3: GE Reveal 60W Incandescent Lightbulb
I wish I would have had more light on the guitar to show the changes in the color, but you can see on at least the background that the GE bulb had truer light. Anyway, this was just a little experiment I did and I thought you guys might be interested.
