howardwhite 6 #4 March 21, 2008 Err... "degrees Kelvin" refers here to color temperature, not temperature as in hot to the touch. 5500 kelvin ("degrees Kelvin" is not really the appropriate terminology) is more or less daylight, so 6000 kelvin is a little bluer than daylight and 4000 k would be redder. Maybe pedantic, but such things are important in photography and in color printing. A printing press room will often have a 5000 k light source to check the color accuracy of sheets coming off the press No asbestos required. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
