HMI Daylight Lighting Kits: Arri, K5600 Joker, Dedolight, Frezzi, Kobold, LTM, Mole-Richardson
HMI lighting (hydrargyrum medium-arc iodide) is a daylight-balanced 5600K lighting option that can accurately replicate the appearance of natural sunlight. It provides between four and eight times the brightness when compared with tungsten lighting of the same wattage. This means that HMI lights are excellent for use as daylight theatrical lights, for lighting film set interiors with daylight or for creating "fill" light while shooting outdoors. Many photographers like HMI lights because they provide a constant light source with the same color temperature as your common photoflash. Constant HMI light allows photographers to shoot stills or videos, whereas photoflashes are only used for still photography.
