Hi Fernando, Chris and all,

Just stay away from CFLs or fluorescents of any kind -- black bodies rule!


Having a correction equivalent to the 80A is nice, but not a must -- the eye
has an amazing method of white balance compensation, as long as the
illuminant is if the black-body variety.


I know about those expensive "Viva-Lite" CFLs, with sort of a continuous
spectrum, but still with three notable peaks... probably not much better
than white LEDs, which are indeed way better than the usual CFL :-(

Maybe because he insists on using the "wrong" colour space? :-) :-) :-)
