Although even the cheapest camera will white-point compensate, if you can start with lights which are the right color, so much the better.  Unfortunately what is sold today as "daylight"...isn't.  Usually that term is used on bulbs with a color temp of 6500.  Those are perfect for bias lighting a calibrated Home Theater (which use D65 as the white target) but in photography and film the ideal is true daylight which is 5000-5500k.  A little harder to find CF bulbs which are, and when you do they are called all sorts of arbitrary names unfortunately.  Not a big deal but just thought I'd share...
