If you try out the newer ARRI LED based solutions such as the new Skypanels, they've fixed that entirely. And even low-budget lights such as the newer Aputure ones produce an amazingly even spectrum (though their cheapest products have a bimodal distribution)
- strogonoff 3y agoThose that sell for $4k+ USD? Perhaps they mitigate these issues (can’t find any research that compares the spectrum to black body and addresses the other issues), though not sure if they are more budget effective if you have a well fire hazard trained crew.
- kuschku 3y agoThey don't just mitigate them, they're entirely free of them. There's a reason Skypanels are standard on every single major hollywood production nowadays. That said, if you need a lot of light, halogen is without alternative. There's a reason the ArriMAX with its 18kW halogen lamp is still popular.

I believe they still use PWM to dim, and you still need to work around the flicker by choosing the right frequency depending on your FPS and shutter angle. They help by making PWM frequency configurable but that is mitigating the problem not eliminating it.
