one point to make.
never, never have fluorescent lights on
while shooting slides.
it will give everything a green cast.
i try to keep all overhead lighting off when
doing slides.

If you are using digital, you can have fluorescent lights on if your camera
has the setting.
Thank you.

I'm glad Mel didn't say "never, never, never" because
I often use full-spectrum fluorescent lamps on digital and no
filtering or adjustments are needed.
My "lightbox" was a $10 shop light fixture, two 48" tubes,
and one or two plastic diffusers from grid ceiling tile applications.
Cheap, long-lasting, stable color, cool. Fill-in flash or a mirror
for highlights.
Ditto when I shot film -- common Kodak slide emulsions were very
happy with the light.
Regards,
Maurice
