Color temperature is generally understood to be the color of light. Technically speaking, it is the scientific measurement of the temperature at which a black body would emit radiation of the same color as a given object. How does a temperature scale become a measurement of color? Table of Co...
Light bulb color temperature is represented in Kelvin, noted by the symbol K. Household fixtures are commonly found in color temperatures on the Kelvin light scale of 2700K (warm incandescent), 3000K (warm white halogen) and 3500K (household fluorescent). ...
Back in the age of incandescent lights we only had one color temperature to choose for studio production. Until fairly recently, studio lighting was almost exclusively incandescent. There were a few exceptions-if you didn't mind lousy color quality, blistering UV, open flame, smoke, or ...
Planckian radiation is essentially any light source that creates light by generating heat. This includes incandescent and halogen light sources. So when we measure the CRI of a 3000K LED lamp, it is being judged against a "natural" light source that has the same spectrum as a 3000K halogen...
Incandescent light is produced when hot matter releases a portion of its thermal vibration energy as photons. At about 1,472 degrees Fahrenheit (800 degrees Celsius), the energy radiated by an object reaches the infrared. As the temperature increases, the energy moves into the visible spectrum an...

Avoid excess heat by using fluorescent (CFL) or LED closet lights over incandescent lights. Not only do CFLs and LEDs give off less heat, but they also provide a good amount of light and save energy. 2.) Select the right color temperature for the ideal light When selecting a fixture, ...
or what are referred to ascolor temperatures. Direct sunlight at noon (which I’ll just refer to as sunlight) is considered to be a “normal” color temperature, so all light sources are compared to this as the standard. For example, light from an incandescent light bulb appears to be mo...
LEDs were far more energy efficient than incandescent sources but initially were capable of emitting only very narrow wavelength bands, that is, single-color visible LEDs, until the invention of multi-chip LEDs and blue–violet-pumped- fluorescent LEDs to produce 'white' light. In this century,...
Most fluorescent lights fall in the range of 50-98 while most LED lights land between 80-98. Incandescent light sources are capable of achieving 100 on the CIE Ra index. Though they are typically far less efficient than other types of lights, producing more heat and requiring far more energy...
