Hello,

is there anywhere in singapore that sells a light source that is very close to 6500k? If so how much? I need it to calibrate my colorimeter.
 

What colorimeter are you using?
 

spyder2pro.

Actually I am thinking of using it to calibrate my projector but I want to know how accurate it is first.

those are just 5500k i think... 6500k is close to blue already.


No! it is stated 6500K (BTW this is not near to blue yet). I understand (was told) Osram has one with 5500K, but I could not find, I think 5500K is more difficult to find, let me know if found one. I want to try.

I am experimenting with Philips Tornado Cool Daylight - packaged with Green box. Go check in any shop selling lighting.

i'm saying, 6500k is bluer, 5500k is whiter... lower than that, is more yellowish...

Hmm.... you have read but haven't tried... nvm
 

I think florescent lighting is not consistent right?

Is there a place is Singapore that sells special lighting or lightbox used to view photos, etc.
