If what you're after is general purpose task lighting, you have a couple of options. While T5 will give you the highest usable light output per lamp and be the most energy efficient, they are still on the expensive side and aren't always readily available in terms of fixtures and replacement lamps.
For the best "bang for your buck" balance between energy efficiency, availability, and price what you'll want to go with are T8 fluorescents. If as I suspect this is new construction, or if you're doing an extensive remodel to an existing structure I would suggest consulting a lighting contractor before you start the project -- they will have access to a much wider variety of fixtures than the local Home Depot or Lowe's and can come up with something specific to your project that will work best for you. If you're on a budget or in a hurry, though, the stuff you can pick up at big box stores will work great for you (all of my own shop lighting came from Home Depot).
More important even than the fixtures though are the lamps themselves -- what you want is something in the "natural light" spectrum (5000-6500K) with a high CRI (color rendering index). The closer you can get to normal sunlight and accurate color rendering, the better it will be to work under and it will show you the true condition of what you're working on.
For correction work you definitely want a mix of light sources since different defects show up better under different conditions. Part of what will determine that is the ceiling height you have to work with. Some types of lighting like MH typically work best in "high bay" situations where the lighting is mounted far overhead and away from the work surface -- it would be too intense to be useful if mounted too close anyway.
