[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 350085, member: 12496"] I don't know about your fish tank lights. It is not about the bulb, it is about the power supply. For example, CFL bulbs have a transistorized power supply built into their base, and they bypass this problem. Probably true of most small lights. Becoming more true of larger lights today. You can simply do the quick test of about six quick photos at a faster shutter speed, like 1/200 second, to see if shutter speed is any issue or not. If not, then not. LED lights run on DC and should not flicker. White balance is probably the main issue. Fluorescent and LED are not true continuous spectrum lights, not like hot filaments or our Sun are continuous spectrum. Fluorescent and LED use phosphor coatings to improve them. [/QUOTE]
