I just used the halogens that came with the light, although I did have to do some white balance adjustments to the raw file.

Thanks, you did an excellent job of it too!

Mr Guy!

You can use fluo-compact bulbs. There is different color temperatures out there (you probably have the 3200k incandescent light bulbs - yellow'ish visible color).

Trick is that if you use a 5000k fluo compact (which is near daylight temperature - blue'er color), you set your camera to 5000k (or daylight mode if you dont have kelvin white balance mode).

You will probably still need to rework it a little bit in raw (best way) or photoshop, to make it perfect.

* Fluo compact produce less heat!
