Yes they can, you just have to know how to expose them

thats an excuse people use to explain why their headlight pictures look like chernobyl.

properly done HIDs show up just fine in pictures.

Okay lemme rephrase
99.9% of cameras cant properly display HIDs because the photographer doesn't know how to properly use the camera

yes the output is alot worse than 4300k but i was going for color and i live in the city.

30k is a little excesive if u ask me.

i have 4300 K in my STOCK housings ( you read that correct an0malous, my stock housings) and they are great. I have yet to be flashed yet, and Iv had them on for over a month.

but 30k. lol i thought higher the number the less output. and if 9K hids are bad i could only imagine having 30 K
