How to get the light in front of the mirror?

Introduction: The camera in the fitting room?

I brushed a message before going to bed two days ago. The title was: "The woman found that the round-fit camera in the fitting room was called ventilation."



What is the situation?


"The camera room is visible in the fitting room. Is it obvious that it is obvious to dig a round hole to install the camera?" The city girl leaflet is shy and angry. On Valentine's Day, she encountered such awkwardness when she tried on a dress in a clothing store on the first floor of Wanda Plaza, Longwan.


The store explained that the round hole was designed to place the lamps and increase the brightness. Later, after the renovation, I found that the light in the store was good. There was no need to install a chandelier in the fitting room, so the round hole was empty, and the camera could not shoot the inside of the fitting room.



The reporter visited the test on the spot and found that the interior of the fitting room could not be photographed. In this regard, the store said that it will adjust the position of the camera or rectify the fitting room to avoid misunderstanding.


We are a professional number. Today we are not low-level fun, nor gossip. We only talk about that "hole" today. I am talking about the one where the ceiling is to be lighted at the beginning.


If the hole is really fitted with a light, what would it be like?


Probably the brain filled up the scene of this round hole installation: the light illuminates the customer vertically.



The fitting room lighting is mainly for the convenience of the customer to observe the fitting effect in front of the mirror. According to this application scenario, is it suitable to install the lighting on the ceiling of the ceiling?


Let's explore this issue today and tell you how to get the light in front of the mirror.


Several wrong practices for front mirror illumination


Mistake 1: Top Lighting - Direct Downlight - Hard Light

One of the common mistakes is to use a narrow-angle spotlight that illuminates the customer's head vertically downwards.



effect:


The result: almost all of the light shines on the top of the customer's head, and the clothing and face that really need to be observed are shrouded in the shadows, making it useless.


The cause of the error: Do not understand the core of the front of the mirror is to illuminate the person's face and body, not the plane seen everyday, but the illumination of the facade.


Mistake #2: Top Lighting - Top Scattering - Soft Light


A common mistake is to use a wide-angle downlight or ceiling light that scatters light from top to bottom, illuminating the entire fitting room.



Result: Most of the light shines on the top of the customer's head. Some of the light is reflected by the wall material of the fitting room to the face and body part that needs to be observed. The part that needs to be illuminated is not bright enough, the brightness ratio is unbalanced, and the heavier face and The shadow of the surface of the garment.


The cause of the error: Do not understand the core of the front of the mirror is to illuminate the person's face and body, not the plane seen everyday, but the illumination of the facade.


Mistake 3: Facade lighting - top projection - looking in the mirror


The common mistake is three: using a recessed spotlight or an orbital spotlight with an adjustable angle to project the mirror.



The result: This is a common misunderstanding. The light shines on the mirror instead of illuminating the customer. I want to illuminate the mirror, but the mirror is hard to illuminate. If the position is reasonable, the specular reflection, the light is projected onto the surface of the human body, which can achieve a certain lighting effect.


The cause of the error: I realized the importance of the facade lighting, but chose the wrong target. You know, the mirror is just a tool that reflects light. It can't be illuminated. What really needs to be illuminated is the clothes on the customer! The surface of the garment is bright enough and the image in the mirror is bright enough.


Several correct practices for front mirror illumination


Ceiling lighting mode


Two ceiling spotlights are mounted on the front upper side of the customer and projected onto the entire facade of the customer at a certain angle.



Lamp recommendations:


Choose halogen light cup or LED light cup (30~40 degrees) with medium beam angle, 2 sets.


The interior of the fitting room is dark. It is recommended to use 10W (LED) or 50W (halogen). If the decoration is light, it is recommended to use 7W (LED) or 35W (halogen).


The light source uses LED lamp cup or halogen lamp cup, color temperature 3000-4000K (better than 4000K), color rendering index Ra>90, R9>20 (LED light source R9 is at least greater than 0).


Indirect lighting mode


When the fitting room is decorated in white, the indirect lighting fixtures can be installed on the wall to illuminate the ceiling upwards, and the uniform lighting can provide a comfortable lighting environment.



Lamp recommendations:


Reflective lighting is slightly less efficient, and it is recommended to use 2x power for direct lighting fixtures.


Note: Indirect lighting is not recommended when the decoration is black or dark.


The light source can be used with both fluorescent lamps and LEDs. The color temperature is 3000-4000K (better than 4000K), the color rendering index Ra>90, and R9>20 (LED at least R9 is greater than 0).


Front lighting mode


Similar to vanity mirror lighting, lamps are installed on both sides of the mirror to provide vertical illumination for the customer.


Figure: The common mirror room front lighting is widely used in various performance backstage dressing rooms. The main reason is the integration with the makeup mirror, independent control, convenient to switch, replace the light source, and carry it at any time. However, the surface of the bulb is high in brightness, difficult to control, and easy to brighten. Therefore, it is not recommended for use in a building space that is fixed for mirroring purposes.



Lamp recommendations:


In order to avoid "bright eyes", it is necessary to strictly control the brightness of the lamps!


Wall or tube mirror headlights can be used to select a frosted glass or acrylic mask to reduce surface brightness.


Light source can choose LED, fluorescent light and incandescent light, but need to meet relevant light quality parameters: color temperature 3000-4000K (better than 4000K), color rendering index Ra>90, R9>20 (LED light source R9 is at least greater than 0) is better .

Figure: Integrated mirror headlights


In general, the light in front of the mirror should be: let the customer calmly appreciate the face, clothing, observe the whole body, provide a rosy, natural skin color lighting, so that the person looking in the mirror feels comfortable.


The key points in front of the mirror design are: vertical illumination is sufficient, the shadow is weak, and the color rendering is good.


When the color rendering is poor, the red clothes are dressed in sauce, the green clothes are in ink, and the face is painted as a dish...

Figure: Looking for a cheaper lamp with poor color rendering? We look at the picture in the same piece of clothing. The color on the left picture shows how beautiful the color is. I can't wait to take it home immediately. On the right, the light with poor color rendering...the feeling is from which big jump sale is brought back...


Therefore, regardless of LED or fluorescent light, choose color rendering index Ra>90! Of course, this kind of lamp will be more expensive, but only a few lights in the fitting room? Expensive is expensive, "experience is king", isn't it?
