Continuous Lighting Vs. Studio Flash
There are two kind of continuous lighting available today - these hot and cool lights. Hot lights, like tungsten and halogen bulbs create a lot of heat and can be a problem when photographing certain subjects. People under hot lights will begin to sweat and flowers will wilt. More expensive hot lights can be far enough away from the subject to overcome this difficulty but you have to consider it when the lights will be within four feet or so of your subject.
Cool lighting is created with fluorescent bulbs. Fluorescent bulbs are very energy efficient and emit very little heat. In the past, the problem with cool continuous light was that fluorescent light tends to have a greenish color and it was necessary to be very knowledgeable about lens filters in order to correct the color. Newer cool continuous lights produce better color balance than the old ones did.
Studio flash lighting, also called strobe lighting, produces sharp contrasts and shadows unless a diffuser or soft box is used. Newer strobe lighting is often equipped with a continuous light that allows you to see what the shot will look like with the flash. Many photographers prefer to use studio flash lighting for living subjects since the flash produces no uncomfortable level of heat. Of course, some subjects are difficult to photograph using studio flash lighting because they will squint their eyes or even close their eyes during the flash.
Continuous lighting does allow the photographer more ability to interact with the lighting. The lights can be moved around, set at different angles and different heights to get exactly the lighting you desire for your subject. Continuous lighting works well with digital cameras, but photographers who use film cameras often prefer the results that get with studio flash lighting.
Films are usually shot using hot continuous lights, but still photography can use either hot or cool continuous lights or studio flash lighting. Studio flash lighting is also helpful in creating certain effects, particularly effects with high contrast and black and white film. If you can only afford one type of lighting for your studio, you may want to choose a good studio flash light. Continuous lighting is great for photographing in color but studio flash is probably better for black and white shots.
The type of lighting any photographer chooses will have a lot to do with his personal preferences and style. While it is best to have both continuous lighting and studio flash equipment, if you must make a choice, studio flash may be more versatile. The subject of your photography will also influence your choice. While continuous lighting allows the photographer more control over the placement of the lighting, he may lose some of the versatility of the studio flash lighting. If your primary camera is a digital, you may prefer continuous lighting. If you prefer to work with black and white film, a studio flash will probably serve you better.
There is a great deal of disagreement on which type of lighting is preferable. Both continuous lighting and studio flash have their own advantages and disadvantages. Each individual photographer has to choose the right light for his particular subject and shot.

Hot Lights, Cold Steel $9.99 When Michael Collins decides to become a surgeon, he is totally unprepared for the chaotic life of a resident at a major hospital. A natural overachiever, Collins' success, in college and medical school led to a surgical residency at one of the most respected medical centers in the world, the famed Mayo Clinic. But compared to his fellow residents Collins feels inadequate and unprepared. All too soon, the euphoria of beginning his career as an orthopedic resident gives way to the feeling he is a counterfeit, an imposter who has infiltrated a society of brilliant surgeons. This story of Collins' four-year surgical residency traces his rise from an eager but clueless first-year resident to accomplished Chief Resident in his final year. With unparalleled humor, he recounts the disparity between people's perceptions of a doctor's glamorous life and the real thing: a succession of run down cars that are towed to the junk yard, long weekends moonlighting at rural hospitals, a family that grows larger every year, and a laughable income. Collins' good nature helps him over some of the rough spots but cannot spare him the harsh reality of a doctor's life. Every day he is confronted with decisions that will change people's lives-or end them-forever. A young boy's leg is mangled by a tractor: risk the boy's life to save his leg, or amputate immediately? A woman diagnosed with bone cancer injures her hip: go through a painful hip operation even though she has only months to live? Like a jolt to the system, he is faced with the reality of suffering and death as he struggles to reconcile his idealism and aspiration to heal with the recognition of his own limitations and imperfections. Unflinching and deeply engaging, Hot Lights, Cold Steel is a humane and passionate reminder that doctors are people too. This is a gripping memoir, at times devastating, others triumphant, but always compulsively readable. |

Lights Out $27.95 A behind-the-scenes exposure why our electricity system is headed for a state of emergency-and what can be done to head it off Most people don't realize that skyrocketing global energy demand and economic growth severely affect the supply of electricity. Between production (power plants) and delivery is an antiquated, "third-world" transmission grid that is in desperate need of hardening against breakdowns, terrorist attacks, inadequate carrying capacity, and operational obsolescence. And while electricity doesn't hold the headlines or dramatic power of oil, the ability to ensure its uninterrupted supply at a reasonable price is even more essential to global survival and prosperity. Lights Out is today's most detailed, in-depth examination of this largely unreported looming energy crisis. Written by one of the world's top electricity industry experts, this powerful book covers numerous hot button economic and political issues-free markets versus regulation; energy independence versus foreign imports; nuclear power, global warming, and other environmental issues; and much more. Beyond just uncovering and illuminating the problems, however, it proposes a comprehensive road map of technical solutions and regulatory reform from both the production and demand sides of the equation-a framework for rethinking, rebuilding, and enhancing the entire electricity production and delivery infrastructure. Prescriptive and provocative, Lights Out will redefine the simmering debate on how the world can-and must-act now to head off a global catastrophe, one that could eventually wreak even more havoc than the ongoing oil crisis. Jason Makansi is the President of Pearl Street, Inc., a consulting firm; Principal of PS Liquidity Advisors, an advisory service for energy technology companies raising capital; and Executive Director of the Energy Storage Council, a public-policy advocacy organization. A prolific author, respected industry thought leader, and seasoned communicator, Mr. Makansi has been analyzing the technological, business, and regulatory issues in electricity production and delivery for over twenty-five years. He earned a BS in chemical engineering from Columbia University. His earlier books include An Investor’s Guide to the Electricity Economy , also published by John Wiley & Sons, and Managing Steam: An Engineering Guide to Commercial, Industrial, and Utility Systems. |
