[@xponen]

​@natma relnam what do you mean by "divide the Lux by 11"? no, Lumen is the total output, meaning every side of the sun (ie: back, front, top, bottom, ect )...which meant you can't get Lumen from Lux by dividing. Think about it; a spot on Earth is very tiny compared to the giant sun, so dividing Lux by 11 to get Lumen is bad math.

[@n01n0s]

1 lux = 1 lumen /m^2, Calculate the suface area of a sphere the size of earths orbit 2.81x10^23 m^2 (4 . pi . 149,600,000,000^2) The lux measured in low earth orbit (from iss) ranges from 130k-140k lux (Probally taken at Perigee and Apogee) Therefore the sun should be (at low end of uncertainty) 3.66x10^28 lumens (36,600,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000)

Discord Light Mode: "Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power."

[@moseistrujillo8300]

The reason the lux did not increase exponentially as they got closer is the lights are in the shape of a plane(sheet). The larger a plane gets the more uniform photons get distributed. With extremely large plane ( at infinity) you can't tell how close to a plame you get ie) it will behave the same at all distances.

[@cortster12]

Exactly! This is also why sunlight seems perfectly uniform, since the sun's surface is very flat on an Earth scale.

Makes sense Mark is wearing a Doomguy helmet. Doom's soundtrack makes you feel like you can 1v1 the Sun.

[@Ben-rz9cf]

The sun is about 10k-100k lux during daylight hours depending on the weather, cloud cover, etc. Even just the sunlight coming through a single window can be as much as 1k-10k lux. For perspective, even some of the most powerful portable LED lights get up to 1000-2000lux max (and that is considered very bright) so you'd need at least 10 of them to reliably overpower the sun INDOORS. The 120D II hits about 60,000 lux which is insanely bright but still not enough to overpower direct sunlight. Especially when you consider that lux ratings are usually measured at meter distance which means it only hits a max of 60k lux when you're literally holding it a couple feet from the subjects face, probably blinding the shit out of them in the process.

[@specialoperatorlolbit8671]

The final number was 424,000 lux. They beat the sun a little over 4 times.

[@hititwithit]

​@@specialoperatorlolbit8671 That was at point-blank range, though.

[@Ben-rz9cf]

@@hititwithit Exactly. Just because something is rated at 10000 lux doesn't mean you're going to get that kind of output. In all likelihood holding it a meter from the subjects face is going to be impractical for any normal video shoot. And lots of light manufacturers like to measure at a half meter instead of a meter just to cheat on their spec sheets and make it sound like a big number. And a non-savvy photographer might see 2 lights, one at 1200 lux / 1m and one 1200 lux .5 and think oh its ok i'll just buy 2 of them--wrong. Because of the inverse square law, you need 4 of them. Because light manufacturers are dicks and you need to constantly do math equations to figure out if you're going to have enough light for the scene. Or, if you're helmut newton, you just shoot with the sun over your right shoulder and forget the lighting entirely.

[@DeadEyeJedi]

Thing is, natural light is effectively parallel when we encounter it, whereas a spotlight expands from a single point or area, so shadowing and things behave differently. This is why landscape renderers have a specific light-type for the Sun.

[@pattycake520]

@@Cbb3225 You may be wondering why you've heard that. It's because the retina isn't a muscle at all, it's actually a specialized type of neural tissue called an optic nerve. The eyeballs are part of the central nervous system, not the musculoskeletal system.

[@AlKohaiMusic]

Production lights always bring me back to my first film class in highschool. The entire first month was exclusively about practically drilling 3 point lighting, and commiting Ohms law to memory. My teachers reasoning being if you don't understand basic lighting, people will likely dislike your drawn frame, even if it has other awesome compositional elements. More important was understanding and solving V=IR equations because if you're the person who keeps tripping circuits all the time then people will almost certainly not wanna work with you.

You could make a curved reflective panel to parallelize the light and effectively ignore the fall off. Don't remember who it was, but another KZbinr made that kind of set up to light up a room as if it were day, letting it pass through a slightly blue liquid film to account for atmosphere. It wasn't 100000 lux, but the effect worked really well
