Ohnooo so what am I getting? Is a cooler light at least gona help? 

[Damien Symonds]

I don't know what to tell you, sorry

It's so weird, I would have thought that twelve 60W bulbs in a small room would have been enough.

[Perli halpern]

It's not so small my room! 

So a cooler light is not gona help matters? 

[Damien Symonds]

Oh yes, it will help.  But it's only helping the lesser of your two issues, I fear

[Perli halpern]

???

Please can you advise me which to get at least to solve one problem!!! 

And is it going to be worth the investment at least for that!? 

[Damien Symonds]

Gosh, I don't know.  How big is your room?

[Perli halpern]

No idea! I'll take a pic for u of my room in the morn. Hope ull be able to get an idea of the size from the pic 

[Damien Symonds]

That would be useful, thanks.

No options of other rooms to use instead?

[Perli halpern]

No other rooms, all smaller and All have same bulbs ?

Attached are pics from both ends 

 

[Damien Symonds]

Oh crap.

In the middle of the day, with the lights turned off and the window open, how is your print comparison?

[Perli halpern]

Never tried that - always got curtains closed! 

But ill be editing mostly in morning or evening!

Ive asked a handy man if he could find me bulbs! hope hes going to come back with an answer for me tomorrow!!!! 

 

[Damien Symonds]

Please try for me anyway.  It would be nice to know.

[Perli halpern]

Sure I'll do that for u! Do u want me to recalibrate or just check as is? 

[Damien Symonds]

Just check as is for now.

Hi

Ok i had an electrician over who said he could get me 12 bulbs with cool light but only 40w

he could also install led batons,

5ft led batons

make: deltech

Colour: cool white 4500k,

lumens: 5400 

60W

 

6ft led batons

make: deltech

Colour: cool white 4500k,

lumens: 6300 

70W

 

He could put 2 on one end or one on each end....

 

Please could u advise if we should do and what to do?

 

I am assuming if we use the batons then we dont have to bother changing the candle bulbs...besides the fact that it wont match the colour light.....

 

 

[Damien Symonds]

Don't dismiss that with a simple "besides the fact" ... it's critical that all the bulbs in the room are the same colour.

[Perli halpern]

ooooh ok good ur telling me!!!! Thank You!!!

so ill change all those n then do u think i need two batons one on either end of room? or what?

[Damien Symonds]

Well, I figure you only need one at the end you're working at.

[Perli halpern]

Do i need the 6ft one or is the 5ft strong enough?

 

[Damien Symonds]

The 5ft should be ample, I'd say.

[Perli halpern]

ok thanks

dont laugh but a woman came to repair the curtains n i suddenly noticed two florescent bulbs up there so there is a bit more light in my room now but i dono any details about those bulbs! it prob still isnt quite enough. but they are at the other end of the room to where i am working

[Damien Symonds]

Ok ... I did laugh bit! 

Interesting.  No chance of moving your computer to that end?

[Perli halpern]

lol

I am very unsure - i am setting up my studio in this room and i had planned to put it at that end which means my computer has got to be at the other end where there is no light. Maybe i shouldnt sort the lighting out till ive set my studio up and tried it out in different ways to see where it works best! complicated! Just want my calibration sorted already!!!!

ok the 2 bulbs are F58W/35

any idea what it is?

[Damien Symonds]

I don't know, sorry.
