wut
the key to keying is making sure that the background is lit evenly. So thats two lights used up and now you have nothing to light the subject/talent

Articles on CFL lighting for photography
And with a splitter you can put 2 bulbs in each holder
Thanks for the articles, I was planning on adding a white and black backdrop for some more flexibility so the first article is very useful.
Cheers!
Or are in to "Glamour Photography" oO
With that green background what would you be photographing - naked leprechauns?
I guess HULK would love this kind of BACKGROUND !!!
Lighting is extremely important, don't expect first rate chroma key with this.
Calumet stands for me.
Voted hot for price/beginner use.
This is continuous lighting - no flashes here.
I am not surprised to hear Photoshop isn't so good with chroma key. My recent experiments with cs5.1 extended had poor results for stacking (ok a difficult stack) and stitching. Arcsoft Panorama maker was easily better and 'something else' was lots better at stacking the same pics i tried with PS. ' something else because I've forgot what it was. I have a specific chroma key soft somewhere too. Forgot what that was and where it was DL to as well. LOL. Really on the ball.

May be FXhome PhotoKey 4 Pro. new version 5.0 is out now.
I got a DSLR last year but haven't attempted any studio style shots yet.
Yh, same, can anyone recommend this one. I really wanted to start taking some studio style photos and this seems like a great way to start but is it any good.
Thanks
I'd recommend using flashes instead of hotlights for photography but this is still a good bundle for the price 8)
The lights are actually cold running daylight lamps and not hot running Tungsten.you can also use flash in combination with them

Yeah that rings a bell. Think you got it.
Strobes,better known here in the UK as Flash are fine for some types of work and continuous lighting better for others.Ive been using both for 50 years and still prefer continuous for most studio work not involving people
The point of a green screen (baring in mind it only works properly when the lighting is entirely uniform), alows you to use apps such as fusion to remove the green from the whole image, whilst specifying 'similar' colours in the spectrum too.
Anyway, nice deal regardless really.

It's a hugely powerful open source graphics package that can do loads including green-screen.
Good tutorial on how to do it here:
