Light Painting?

[kamikazi929]

What kind of torch would you recommend for light painting? ie.. drawing characters in various colours.. red, white, blue. Preferably an all in 1 torch would be best, to save constantly changing torches between exposures..

What do you all use?

thanks

For drawing with light I would suggest something relatively low powered as to the colours this is generally done with coloured gels so only a single torch is needed

Hi,

I used a led torch from B n Q , then used different coloured foils over it to get the required colour. I did look for the gels but I couldn't find any? And if I'm honest i didn't really know what I was looking for lol.

a single LED light (lots available in different colours)

or make your own from a button battery and 3volt LED's from Maplins
