DIY fluorescent light bank trials

day 150-365 DIY light bank trials

Well ive got one light rigged up and wired up. No barn doors yet they arrive later this week (600x450mm). First impressions are very good with a nice soft light cast . I will get the other one rigged up tomorrow. These images were taken at iso 200, f5.

The lights themselves arent overly heavy either and will be quite easily handled once ive got the bracket on and attach a handle to one of the ends.

if i was to build these lights from scratch with new components i think they would probably cost around £200 each as the iguzzini fittings are rather expensive. you could use a cheaper doner and probably get it done for half the price.

Again the lamps fitted are 80w each at colour 840 which is a temp of 4000k each producing 6000 lumins.
