From when I did my thread on the LEDs I used, I can tell you taking images of them is hard. Most cameras will try to adjust for illumination giving you the dots, the bulb would be completely blown out otherwise. Color is the other hard thing since the camera has to chose a white balance setting. This is really noticeable when trying to compare LEDs. The camera will pick one as white and the other will be completely off. The 9 LED cobs pictures make them look far bluer than they are.
