Photo lessons 5: Modeling lights get hot

Most studio flash heads have a modelling light that allows you to see where the flash will fall on the subject.
This allows you to position the lights to give the perfect balance of illumination and shadow.
The only problem is that these high-powered bulbs often get very hot after a few minutes use.
Unless you’re photographing delicate flowers or an elaborate design made from chocolate, it’s not usually a major issue for the subject, but you need to be careful when fitting light modifiers (softboxes etc) or packing the lights away.
Avoid touching the bulb with anything that is likely to burn or melt until it has cooled for a few moments.
