[edit] Focus of this page

I don't think this article should be merged. Instead, the focus should shift towards hard versus soft light... the 'quality' of the light. Ties this into cinematography by mentioning the uses of soft/hard light, how instrument design affects how well the light "cuts" (i.e. fresnels versus open faced lights), and what instruments achieve soft/hard light.

[edit] Expansion Plans

I propose to expand this article with a section on the methods used by photographers to create soft light specifically as it pertains to portrait photography inside and outside the studio. Let me know of any objections. Manamarak (talk) 19:30, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
