White balance issues with continuous lighting studio

[gsgary]

No you need to get studio flash, continuous are a waste of money they are ok for still life

They're not a waste if you intend on using them for video as well as photos. You can do the same things with continuous as you can with strobes, except for stopping motion, which isn't a usual studio scenario anyways.

Not with the cheap **** you get on Ebay, you would have to buy something like this ARRI Group: Lighting Americas

I'm a rookie, and should be slapped silly for this. I should never use such a small A for studio work. I'm such a dum-dum. What was I thinking, especially after you already told me this! It take 2 times for it to sink in. I GET IT NOW, got it?!

Well I didn't really tell you anything, I was just wondering why you chose the settings. Your DSLR has a lot of settings and IMHO you need to learn how to use those settings, what they are, why they are set that way.

I take it you don't shoot in the studio much because we see loads of blurred family photos where they have used continuous lights

Maybe if you are using the non-Fluorescent type bulb (Halogen, for instance)... but FL's do NOT put out enough light for anything but marginal use. Even a bank of spider lights barely cut it and they use five bulbs each!

When people are having a conversation, its really childish to butt in and interrupt. Rude, even. There will never be a time you (ok, maybe not you, *I*) get too much information. When you post a thread, its not just for yourself, but anyone else reading as well. If you don't want to learn anymore, then don't reopen the thread. If its too much at one time, subscribe and come back later.

"Helpful" info is good, but the topic got way off subject from my WB issue with studio.

I thought i said it was not aimed at you, your doing that yourself

Noone was even talking to you luvmyfam. You've made it pretty clear you don't listen to anyones advice here. You popping in and saying "NEXT" is dumb. Unless your a mod, and closing a thread, you just make yourself look bad, because everyone knows you don't have the authority to move along a thread.

AND, the info was relevant, seeing as you thought 3 45 watt bulbs was enough to light a set.

First of all, I didn't interrupt, was saying NEXT meaning I was done and had gotten all I needed about WB in a studio along with everyone's different opinions about lighting. Where did I say I thought three 45W bulbs were great???? Speaking for me?? I have gotten a LOT of helpful info from here and I do listen so please do not speak for me or patronize me, thank you.

 

[Bossy]

Ok I'm glad your absorbing the info.
