A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Can you add more light without adding more heat? (alien.top)

Does more light always mean more heat?

I'm trying to illuminate an extremely small dark space, but bringing my lights closer to the subject risks damaging what I'm photographing. (Using Apunture 600d LEDs with Fresnel heads).

I'd like to stick with continuous light if possible, since I'm also pixel-shifting for resolution in this series.

My small dark space is the inside of a 300 year old Violin. The apunture lights can heat the varnish to unsafe levels in around 30 seconds.
