Hello, a long time lurker here,

I have been trying to figure out what LED bulb temperature would work good for taking photos indoor. The lighting fixture is directly over our kitchen table and it takes 5 bulbs. Any recommendations on color temperature and lumens per bulb. These photos will be taken for the equipment exchange, GunBroker, eBay items exedra.

Any help is greatly appreciated ??

The quality of the light, direction, modifiers, CRI, etc. are all far more important factors to good lighting than color temperature. As long as all the lights match in color temp; white balance can be adjusted.
