Lighting for product Photography


Hello
I am trying to setup a small lighting arrangement for small produt photography with a Canon Powershot Pro2 S2 camera. I was thinking of getting a light tent with lights. the problem is finding compact flourecents that are 5000K daylight balanced. I bought some Daylight bulbs, but the moment I swtiched them on, I could see they are not waht I wanted, they have this orange glow to them. General hardware stores have 3000, 4100 and 6500K lamps, but it seems like 5000K lamps are so hard to find. Help !

  You can set your Pro2's white balance to flourescent.
