Yeah i have dual spec bulbs myself.
I wondered if your ballast was buzzing a lot as some buzz more than others and it can screw up your pics with lines,all fluro tubes screw the pics with lines on a digital camera

Thats why then,its a built in ballast.
They all buzz a bit,nothing to worry about,unless its seriously audible anyway

im using 2 125 watt high spectrum cfls blue,,i hav another red spectrum,, its my first grow,,i was gonna change to hps,,but alot of ppl use cfls and seem to get on ok,,hav you had any probs with themI always use both spectrum's to but i get the blue from fluro tubes and using a dual spectrum bulb.
Plants love both at once all the way through imo and they do much better when they get them both all the way through.
Be careful to cool the hood adequately though

No pro cfls are great as long as you have small plants or a lot of them.im using 2 125 watt high spectrum cfls blue,,i hav another red spectrum,, its my first grow,,i was gonna change to hps,,but alot of ppl use cfls and seem to get on ok,,hav you had any probs with them
The best thing about a hps is that it gives much bigger and higher quality buds.
Its true that you can use cfls to get a load of bud but you need a lot of them and its more hassle than just having one hps lamp imo
