I'm sure this topic has come up before, but I couldn't any thread discussing it in detail in the archives. If this has been dealt with before I'd appreciate a link to the relevant thread.
I've seen quite a few posts here and elsewhere claiming that in some situations incandescent lights are "better" than LED lights, especially when there's some ambient light about. I don't fully understand why this is so, but it definitely agrees with my own observations. Incandescent lights almost always seem to show more detail than LED lights of comparable brightness, especially when there's a lot of scattered light about. LED lights really only seem to hold there own when it's really dark.
Why is this so? Is there any real explanation behind this phenomenon? Or is this just a subjective thing, like so many things?
