- [LED HMI](https://firstunit.com/led-hmi/): LED HMI lighting is all the craze now and for some good reasons. Let’s not forget about HMIs and tungsten lights. I look at lighting like a painter looks at an empty canvas. A painter may use many different brushes, from big, wide brushes to very fine brushes. My point is that lighting is the same way. LEDs, HMIs, and tungsten lights are all brushes in a painter’s palette.
