The bigger problem for the OP is that one of those doesn't deliver nearly enough light to get to f/22 and beyond with short exposures. Nor are they cheap, if you want to start ganging them.Originally Posted by Peter J. De Smidt
Agree with the others that strobes are your best option, plus used strobe kits can be had on the cheap on Craigslist and the like. There is no compelling reason for you to use continuous lighting under this scenario.
True.

Yup,one can pick up a lower end Speedatron set for cheap,and hand building custom light modifiers such as diffusion panels is fun and makes your light totally unique..As opssed to buying the same lighting look everyone eles buys from a catalog or web site..
I have a question about some of the lights I have. I mentioned in an earlier post that I have a pair of StarLite QL lights. My question is, can I use anything other than halogen bulbs with them? I wanted to use LED bulbs on these but I don't know if I can, I mean, safety-wise? Are these lamps designed for a specific kind of light? Thanks.

screw a regular household bulb in.. extension cord to power bar with a fuse
get way back and turn it on
I bet it works,,
then you can get led bulbs for it
caution..I am not an electronic engineer
They sell this in accessories. https://photoflex.com/rr-parts/fvsl150cfl
I offer no advice, but you should be able to figure it out.

Randy, I saw that, but then that implies that it is either fluorescent or halogen only? Any electrical engineers out there?
Thanks.

I have a couple of Arri fresnels and they're so well made that I'm happy just to unpack and use them. Some quality is well worth having - Arri is that kind of quality. I compare them to my Naren, Photogenic, Mole-Richardson, Smith-Victor and Lowell units and they're way above all of those.
