How do you best emulate mercury vapor light with LED lights, either RGB or daylight/tungsten?
Over a decade back, David Mullen posted on another forum:
Mainly I’ve used 1/4 CTO + 1/2 Plus Green on HMI’s (similar to a Cool White fluorescent color).
Sometimes I’ve used tungstens in other scenes with Cyan 60 gel, though if matching to HMI’s with the combo I mentioned above, I use 3/4 CTB + 1/2 Plus Green on the tungsten.
Though I find that real mercury vapors would be more like Full Plus Green rather than 1/2 Plus Green in terms of the greeness.
I wonder what’s best practice with todays RGB and/or bi-color LED lights?
