I've posted a few images using the shop light setup and a color correction filter on my flickr. I'll be taking a bunch more over the next few days of our new baby. Effy @ 2 Weeks by iFlook, on Flickr Effy @ 2 Weeks by iFlook, on Flickr Life @ 39 Weeks by iFlook, on Flickr

I finally got some blue color filters that seam to correct the yellow light from the shop light very well. I just taped it on the front of my home made softbox. I'll be posting some pics using it soon. I've been able to let all the light I want in from my windows and haven't noticed any color...

So, since these bulbs seam impossible to find I think I will try the 800w bulb that was suggested along with a large color correcting filter that fits my soft-box. Once I get them I will post some results. Color Correcting Lighting Filter here...

The Color Correcting Lighting Filter is looking like a great solution; too bad none of the local camera shops carry the sheets. I have a little shoot this weekend and was hoping for a fix soon. I'll just have to order a couple.

Yes I know I'm being harsh and sorry about that. I don't think I'm hijacking the thread to keep people on track with the forum starter and pointing out to people (especially high forum posters) that these topics have been talked over already. I also don't like people saying that it can't be...

I forgot about the gels. I was thinking the lights might be too hot for them but I made a cool soft box for my shop light and could just get some blue gels to filter the light. Now I just need to do some searching for some larger gels at least 24"x24". Thanks. edit: I think I found what I'm...

And another person not reading the thread. Good job TriggerHappy. Your point on white balance has already been thoroughly talked through and I specifically said "I have a north window next to my setup and would love to use that light as well but I can't with yellow halogens." I can't correct...

This looks like the bulb you are talking about. I think I will be ordering a couple. Thanks http://bulbster.com/lightbulbs/ushio-emf-jp240v800wcf-1000329-p-259.html?currency=USD

Definitely sounds better. What fitting are you talking about and the 800w 240v lamp works fine in a 110v 500w shop light fixture? If so I'll be ordering a couple right away. Thanks

@david Ok I guess we still need to clarify this thread even further. Color temp has been mentioned multiple times and does not pertain to this thread and I have already explained this. Please read the thread so that when you comment it actually adds something to it. We are trying to find...

I'm not sure what's going on with the blue tinted halogen bulbs. They don't exist anywhere. I also have a few shop lights for my lighting and they work great, except for the fact they are yellow. I have a north window next to my setup and would love to use that light as well but I can't with...
