Thanks for the help. It's good to know that there shouldn't be flicker/banding issues if I'm not using specifically film/video bulbs. These bulbs have a CRI of 84. I'll keep looking around and see what I can turn up.

I apologize if this topic has been fully explained before but I searched and couldn't quite find the exact answer to my question. I'm shooting in a school hallway lit by two windows and a ceiling of fluorescent fixtures. My thought is to ND the windows, fill the fixtures with daylight bulbs, and color-balance the camera to daylight. I was wondering if anyone here has had experience with generic daylight balanced bulbs such as these. I'm worried about possible flicker and dark horizontal banding as is always the case with fluorescents. I've read on here that adjusting the shutter speed to 1/60 may help but I'd rather not do that. I'm shooting with an AF-100 at 24p and a shutter speed of 1/50. Thanks in advance.
