Can i still use my normal light switch?

Yes, and no. You can still use the normal light switch to turn the bulb on and off. However, when you have the light switch off there is no power to the bulb and therefore it cannot be turned on with the Hue button (or any other device). Also, you can set the 'power-on behavior'. If you set the power-on behavior to on, then you turn off the light switch and on the switch the bulb will go to the power-on behavior. So if the bulb is off and the Hue button is too far away, you can turn the switch off and then on and the bulb will come on.

Are these bulbs dimmable? Can you change the kelvin temperature, so make them look more yellow or white as needed?

They removed the ability to change the temperature of the lights. As of Jan 2022 the white bulbs I have (that used to change temperature) are just a bland yellow. The app is only good to make the fairly dim light even dimmer.

The photos show these are the 75w equivalent bulbs, but the product description says it's the 60w bulbs. Which bulbs are actually in kit?.

The bulbs are actually only 10.5 watts but 75w equivalent.

Que generacion es tercera o segunda?

El kit es de segunda generación el hue hub o puente no hay de tercera generación. Si existen bombillas de tercera generación pero la diferencia es casi imperceptible
