[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1324774, member: 2972"]JeffB has a very good handle on lighting, and I agree with his posts in this thread 100%. Point sources are best at detecting hairlines. Incandescent and halogen are two examples of point sources -- and if the halogen is "too bright" simply move the light farther away (or buy one that is less bright). The ANA got that one wrong, IMO.[/QUOTE]
