Light Source’s primary function is to get you close to the exposure you wish to operate in, whether in F/T stops or foot-candles.
We’ve built the database from published data from the manufacturers and we’re hoping to expand the same as more information is published.
The T/F Stop exposure levels outputted by the calculator would be correct for the center of the lit area, falling to approximately 50% exposure at each side of the beam spread.

The database has been complied to contain as much relevant information for each fixture taking into account specifics for lens type, lamp setting and specific beam spread. Light Source updates will include new lamps and manufacturers as they come on board.

Light Source been built to be intuitive and quick to use while in the middle of a job. Anyone with a basic understanding of light / photography can pick it up quickly and get great results fast.
