Are you taking about LED set/scene lighting? I know they are starting to use it in TV studios more to reduce the ambient heat to virtually nothing while also saving power.

LEDs are good for spotting. They certainly don't "spray" very wide. That being said, the are very low power and have low heat.

with the low power usage and high output & the fact that they are the "greenest" lighting available at the time... makes me wish i saw them in more photography products.
hoping for ANY examples you might have.
i have done/worked on some Industrial Design projects using them... love the ease of prototyping and low cost of materials.

also, these lights have a much longer lifespan if properly powered. I would say this is still a fledgling technology with much potential.
