Stumbled across this on the interwebs:

http://fonarevka.ru/indexen.html 

It's got the most comprehensive range different torch beam pattern photos I've seen - some of them underground in utility tunnels (giving a good mine tunnel comparison). Lots of technical details as well.

Lucky person has his own service tunnel.

Useful info, It would appear that all the photo where taken on a Collpix P5100, 8 seconds, f3, ISO 200.

Excellent site, but I particularly like this bit:

Quote:

You can send us your flashlights by air mail and we'll can test them. Of course, we can write a review in our forum.

We don't send flashlights back.



They must have a lot of torches!

The "Polarion PH50" looks a bit powerful, 5000 lumens !

Makes your WiseLED look like something you get for free with every £20 of petrol Simon :lol:

Ah, but it looks like it's about 3 times the price of the WiseLED 😉

Smashing!



Wonder if that will give Simon any ideas for the 2011 photo contest ?

Haven't converted me yet, 100w quartz halogen is just as bright plus I can use it to cook with!
Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.
