What is the main difference between continuous lighting and flash (strobe) lighting?

Is there an appreciable difference in the clarity of light? Does this effect the resolution of the final image by any means?
At Eric, Yes, My name is Vinnie W. Photography. I shoot landscapes and outdoor portraits. I do not do studio set ups and thus do not know strobes and continuous lighting. I have read a lot of your answers and you are smug in a lot of your answers. Yes, I can be a “professional” and not know studio stuff. I know a lot of photographers here in Colorado who are the same. (Having over 300+ days of sunshine is a plus here). So yes, I wanted to know the quality difference between continuous lighting and strobes or flashes. Is there a difference I guess in the quality of light is how I should have worded it.
@ Rick, I’m building a basement studio when I can and wanted to build diffusers (Lightboxes, reflectors, my brother is a professional electronic guy). I wanted to know if I should use continuous lighting (compact florescent as it’s cooler) or should I invest in slave flashes or strobes.
@ Picture Taker, Thank you so much! I appreciate it!

And all done with an entry level DSLR, BTW.

Problem with Impala 2008?

Problem with Impala 2008?

My car just got this problem yesterday.. The Traction Control System warning light came on, the Check Engine warning light came on, and a DIC message that read Engine Power Reduced. These three messages came on at the same time.

I would like to know; what this means, what could have caused this issue, and if I can fix it myself, please.
Thanks.

What color fabric goes with a blue rope light?

I am putting a blue rope light under the bar hangover, then fabric on the face to cover up some damage. Blue light will shine down on the fabric, just wondering what would look good? The bar top is a light wood grain, with oak trim on the edge! Thank for your segestions!

Help with physics question?

Help with physics question?

Blue light (wavelength = 482 nm) is directed through parallel slits separated by 0.15 mm. A fringe pattern appears on a screen 2.0 m away. How far from the central axis on either side are the second order dark bands?

Amber strobe lights legal in Illinois?

Amber strobe lights legal in Illinois?

Is it legal to mount amber strobe lights in a civilian car in Illinois, front side and rear, if they are not attached to a power source and have no intention of being used; merely for display purposes? Also, would it be legal to use them off-road only? Please back-up your answers, thank you.

Do you need the special wiring harness for a 2008 chevy cobalt?

Do you need the special wiring harness for a 2008 chevy cobalt?

Hello. I’m helping my sister install an aftermarket radio in her four door 2008 chevy cobalt LT and I’ve been doing some research and from what I’ve heard, in GM vehicles newer then 2005 or so you need a special wiring harness like the “Metra LC-GMRC-LAN-03 GM LAN Data Bus Interface with Chime Retention” Which costs about 50 bucks on ebay. Apparently you need that harness so you don’t lose the open door ding, blinker sound, and all the other noises that the car makes. I’ve also heard that without the special wiring harness a bunch of other things will go wrong with your car like the gauges will not function properly and all the warning lights on your dash by the gauges would quit functioning. Now to me, that sounds like a bunch of crap. They wouldn’t design it to where you need the stock radio or the wiring harness for your gauges to work… that would just be stupid. The $50 wiring harness plays the notification sounds threw a little speaker that is connected to it. First off, if i do buy that wiring harness, that little speaker will be sitting behind the radio and behind all the trim so will you be able to hear it at all? I was thinking I would just buy a $10 wiring harness that will fit her car that doesnt have the little speaker. That would mean that she wouldn’t be able to hear any notifications though. She would be ok with no notifications, as long as it doesnt mess up the gauges and lights like i listed aboe. Is there any way to get the notifications to play? I was thinking that you could just splice a couple wires and get the notifications to play threw the cars speakers. Can I just connect the notification wire to a wire in the wiring harness that comes with the aftermarket radio?
Thank you for all of your help!
