1 out of 5 stars where u can find the correct light for cheap   October 11, 2009

Okay based on reviews, thank you all so much, I didn't waste time on these duds. Did find out that you can buy full spectrum, that is, daylight bulbs at the specs listed for this item at your local hardware store, (here's a hint: HD), for about $5 for a pack of 2. For higher wattage it's just best to go to a photography supply retailer like bh or wolf so you get what you ordered. Some folks just don't know the difference and seems this retailer is taking advantage of that.


1 out of 5 stars Isn't it the light bulb that I ordered   April 3, 2009

Once I open the box, the model number is not the same. The light output is 1659 Lumens (not the 1800 Lumens). I can't see anything on the box saying that it is for photo shooting. The box clearly says that this bulk is ideal for table lamps, floor lamps and other open indoor fixtures. Hence I am not getting the right product, which by description is a "27 Watts 5500K Color corrected day light fluorescent lamp photo bulb". You can see anything in the box telling you that you receive the right product. DONT BUY IT .....

I expected more light, but I can get it close enough to like a portrait. Full length shots are another issue all together.

these are off the shelf $2.00 cfls the seller claims 5500 kelvin. These are more like 3500 kelvin. not as pictured or described light spectrum may not matter in a porch light but this seller claims to be selling a photo flood with a daylight spectrum and is not delivering this. the manufacturers website says nothing about spectrum. Ummm maybe you ran out of the good ones and called me a sucker.


1 out of 5 stars SINGLE BULB -- Nice House Light; Poor Studio Light   February 18, 2009

This is absolutely mislabeled as a 2-pack but was sent as a single bulb (seller sent the 2nd upon request). The bulbs are nowhere near powerful enough for studio lighting and are, in reality, daylight-corrected household CFLs you can get at Lowes for half the price. Nice CFLs but not suitable for the listed purpose.
