INCANDESCENT ONLY!  Flourescent bulbs have a shut off time that is
significant.....not for darkroom use.

View wet prints by use of a regular 75 watt (small) floodlight.

Subject: [Leica] Light in the darkroom?


Maybe it doesn't make any difference...  but I am about to purchase a
light to mount on the ceiling of my darkroom and want opinions on
whether incandescent is better than flourescent (or vice versa) in this
environment?  My question is based on what light will help me view
prints.
TIA. /matt
