    I use an OTT Task Light. Approx. $50 at Office Depot.

    The other popular light is the GE Reveal. Much cheaper than the Ott light and you should be able to find them at your local hardware store.



    I do admit to owning 2 Ott lights though. image

    The GE Reveal lights work great!

    Set your exposure to center-weighting or spot focus area. Hit menu button next to display, then go into "metering". Use plenty of light.
