Budget professional light for makeup or for streaming yourself

There are several options for making quality lighting fast and cheap:





Option one - halogen ( halogen) lamps





cons: little violet / blue in the spectrum or very short service life <100 hours (for lamps working with overheating) and good softboxes are required to diffuse light and protect them from ignition :)





Option two - LEDs





cons: lack of violet in the spectrum, problems with uniform light scattering.





All these options are solvable, but the question of price and feasibility.





But there is another option - "fluorescent lamps"





You say "but this is the last century ..."





But no, we are only interested in certain lamps: Philips - series "graphica" CG 5000k CRI95 - 2330lm (65lm / W) and CG 6500k CRI98 - 2100lm (58lm / W)





The packaging is as simple as possible, obviously not for sale in the mass market :)





Some people confuse it with "ordinary" fluorescent lamps with a high color rendering index, they look like this:





Datasheet graphica 950 and graphica 965 , they differ in color temperature 5000k and 6500k, below are the spectra of lamps from the manufacturer's website
