Re: P-Diddy and Ashton Kutcher
Just a quick note about lights vs. paparazzi:
It seems that a lot of cameras can pick up infrared wavelengths as well as visible light. Ever pointed a tv remote at a camcorder and noticed the bright blue beam on the video that you can't see with your eyes?
I found this out at work also with some black and white cameras, comparing LED lighting and halogen work lights. The massive amount of IR coming out of the halogens makes them appear much brighter in the camera view, whereas by eye it's not as dramatic a difference.
So for "blinding" paparazzi cameras, the incan probably is the best choice after all.
Kinda makes you wonder about all those incan vs. led beamshot photos now, doesn't it??
