Hi folks 💕 can someone explain to me why kind of all LED lights that I own (doesn’t matter expensive or cheap as fûck) flicker at 120 FPS in my iPhone camera like crazy (atleast if dimmed).

Some do even flicker or cause rolling bands of light and shadows on screen on 60 FPS, 30 FPS and some even on 24 FPS.

I don’t see the flickering with my own eyes, but since I’m a very photosensitive person who suffers from migraines and eye-migraines, light literally hurts my eyes if it’s brighter than dusk or dawn. My pupils are naturally always
more dilated than average - police and doctors sometimes ask me if i am on drugs, even tho I am not - annoying to be honest. I am concerned that this (for me invisible flicker), may cause migraines or other problems? 😣

I’ve read, that even when we don’t consciously notice it, our brain does and our iris-muscles contract in spasmic rhythms? ⚪️💃🕺⚪️

Can someone explain to me why even all the flicker free marketed LEDs I own all flicker (atleast slightly or sometimes violently) at 120 FPS and sometimes at lower FPS?

Hope my question isn’t too dumb, but ChatGPTs answers and Google search finds are kind of to vague - or I for some reason can’t comprehend it enough that I am satisfied or comforted. 🥸

Camera used: iPhone 16 Pro Max

English isn’t my first language - so I apologize if my wording is strange. 😵‍💫

This is my dream dress for my wedding in October, where I will marry the love of my life.
I am in a apprenticeship for an office job, so I currently don’t really earn good money and I have a max budget of 150-300€ for the dress… (we both don’t earn a alot currently)

(I don’t wanna \[ok let’s be honest: I can’t lmao 😭\] spend more then approx. 2.000€ for the wedding to be honest.)

I could make simple alterations myself since I studied fashion design for a couple of years in my past \[long depressing story, not appropriate to tell about it right now\] but I never did bridal stuff - I was more into minimalistic and dark-alternative/goth fashion.

Making the dress myself from scratch would eat me up from stress and sour my wedding. (I just started planning my wedding and I have only like 4,5 months till the date is due.)

I guess the dress in the link is a knock-off from a bridal designer?
