I have a machine for transferring movie film. It is called a "Workprinter:"
and it uses a very old-fashioned, very low CRI LED as the lighting source. This low CRI rating results in colors that are not "true" compared to what I would get with incandescent or halogen lighting.
I would like to replace this LED module using a high CRI LED.
Here is a picture of the module:
As you can see, it is round (about 1" in diameter). It runs off a 5V DC supply, with a dropping resistor.
Here are my requirements:
1. High CRI (90 or higher would be nice).
2. 5V operation (I would think that most flashlight LEDs can run off 5V).
3. Built-in diffuser. As you can see, this LED module has some sort of diffuser/lens. I can easily build my own diffuser, so this one is not an absolute requirement.
I am somewhat indifferent to color temperature (this gets "zero'd out" with the camera white balance) and, to some extent, lumens, although brighter is always better.
I hope I have posted this in the correct forum.
I appreciate any ideas you can provide. Ideally, I would like to have a suggestion that includes not only the make/model of LED, but also a suggestion for a supply source.
Thank you in advance!
