Q: 10. Is this CFL bulb dimmable ?

A: Most cfl lamps do not dim effectivly and also may require dimmers specifically designed for the job ($$$). It is probably easier to have multiple lamps and to turn on what is needed, or to position lamps to give more or less light on the subject. X2 distance is x4 less light.

[85 W] I got these as a replacement. They are similar but bigger. Bases barely fit in my soft box, but thank fully they did and color is perfect 5

[CFL fluorescent] I used this bulb for a separation light recently. The color daylight balance seemed closer than my other CFLs. With more tests I may consider changing out all of my CFLs. 5

[4,250] I used them as a profesional product photographer and the color they produce is amazing! I definitely recommend them!! 5

[E26/E27] Please disregard my prior review as I posted it before I shot a video with them. I have five of these in my kitchen's recessed light fixtures. These are large. The spiraled tube is thicker and longer, thus sticks out of the light fixture a bit. They are definitely bright white. Along with the Alzo 45W bulbs used in our soft light boxes, we have plenty of daylight white for our videos. This was the first set of videos my wife did not need to color correct, just had to modify brightness/contrast a little. Much improved over using a mix of the warmer light bulbs. 5

[5500K] Bought these bulbs for still-life / studio photography. Color and intensity are perfect. Not an issue for me but recognize that these bulbs are BIG !! 5

[1.055 lb] This is a good bulb if your building your first lighting setup. I'm using them with a softbox and a honeycomb. The honeycomb, similar to barn doors, allows you to focus the light in a general direction without leaking light to places you don't want the light to go or bounce. Makes a huge difference. Some tips: Use c-stands + weight bags, not 3-legged stands. 3-legged stands can tip over easy, take up more room, people can trip over them, and can't be weighed down. Use a socket with a fuse. These get hot. Ventilate. Do not leave unattended. Make sure all your lights in a socket have the same color temp. They last a long time provided you handle them with care. They have mercury, so don't break them and dispose of them properly. 5

[4,250] This thing is big, really BIG. I'm using two of them in a DIY adapter for a 28x39 softbox and they are plenty bright. Very even lighting (no need for the inner diffuser) They are mounted almost parallel to the front of the box on the long axis. They get warm but I have been leaving the access zipper open, and facing up, and haven't had an overheating problem. Good CRI and reasonable priced. Only have 30 hours on them so far. 5
