    Kino tungsten vs actuall tungsten

    Is it just me or do you guys notice the huge difference between tungsten balanced kino flo's and say, a quartz globe, or anything that is actually tungsten? It could be that most of the flo's are 3200, would the 2900 flo's match a little better? If I just use one or the other its fine, but blending the two is kinda funky.
    Has not been a problem really, just curious.

    The problem with the Kino bulbs is that Kino is a bunch of filthy liars... Now, let me qualify that. Kino makes a huge claim that their fluo bulbs have no green in them. This is a bald faced lie. I've color timed five films using kinos, and I finally realized that it was due to them that I have always had to subtract green from the scene. Try slapping a little bit of Minus Green gel on those kinos, and it'll get em back to where you want em. Dig.
