i am just curious about how some of you 35mm lens adptor owners light your scenes.

do you find it easy or hard, i am sure alot of people on this forum will love some advice on lighting with 35mm lens adaptors.

i know it's hard to just answer because it all depends on the scene your lighting.

just recently i had a music video i had to shoot and most of it was done at night i shot it with the dvx100b camera and lighting was somewhat of a challenge but nothing to bad i used mostly cheap flood lights.

if some of you can share your opionins or experience on this subject it would be apprciated.
 
It's a very broad question, but in short: Blast it.

It takes lots and lots of light for me to get to the ideal f-stop and shutter speed.

It takes a LOT more time to light a scene too.

In small rooms, cooler running lights are your best friend, otherwise actors sweat and get cranky.

I find it to be quite a challenge, even more so than it might be to light for film, because you have a lot less latitude on video.
