Need help with light
Posted: 24 Jul 2011, 13:49
Hi
I have been looking alot around to deside what kind of light i'm going to use for my scanner... I have concluded like 4 crees will do the job. They will be so called cool white or natural white which should be the best? there is also the warm white version but that will give me not "clear white" pages so to say right?
I'm trying to figure out what i need to make the light and make the brightness adjustable...
I saw this:

and this video posted here:

That i think will work fine for me.. But i really need to ask what i need to do. I will need a buckpack, 4 crees and? What about powersource and all that? I have tried finding solutions on the forum but can't seem to find the complete answer. Maybe it is too much i ask to what exactly to do and buy to get the lightning working? I just want this to be perfect the first time... i don't mind a bit of work just that it will be working really good when done.
Hope you all have a great summer
Best regards
Anders
