Hello everyone,

I'm currently running the BRS recommended spectrum to mimic the AB+ spectrum, and of course, its very blue. I was wondering if there was a recommended spectrum for taking pictures. If it matters, the camera in use is a Nikon DSLR. Thanks!

If you’re shooting a fixed white balance (you should ) just lower the blues till the corals just begin pop in the pictures.

You may need to turn up the intensity overall so you have enough light.
I’m not familiar it there is a way to set that as a preset so you can use it later.

I appreciate the insights. The pre-set thing isn't a big deal since its very easy to adjust using the app or my Apex controller.
