(A), (b), (c) is a figure which shows the top view, front view, and side view of the color changer shown in FIG. Figure 8
The device indicated by is installed in front of the rear illumination light source,
When illuminating the strobe arc tube, which is the rear illumination light source, position an arbitrary color filter from the back of the subject toward the front, and illuminate and emit light with a color according to that color.
An arbitrary color is added to the back illumination light of the subject 18. The color changer shown here is for the left and right side plates 1
Between 01, two upper and lower film winding shafts 102 driven by a motor 107 and two upper and lower guide rollers 104 are similarly attached. Between the pair of upper and lower film take-up shafts 102, a film in which a transparent color filter 106 is connected in a required number of bands is formed on the upper and lower sides.
It is hooked via a pair of guide rollers 104, and an arbitrary color filter on the strip film can be positioned in front by controlling the rotation of the film winding shaft 102.

A strobe light emitting tube (xenon lamp) 109 of an electronic flash device (hereinafter referred to as a strobe device) 109 is attached to the inner part of the color filter 106 with a light reflecting plate. The color filter 106 is provided with a plurality of color filters. For example, in the present embodiment, the normal mode is 8 colors and the stage mode is 4 colors.
When the normal mode is selected, the illumination light from the background is strengthened, and the illumination from the front is also strongly lit so that the subject does not become black due to the backlight. When the subject 18 desires a natural background effect, the background illumination color becomes colorless by selecting white as the selection color.

As shown in FIG. 8, a strobe light emitting tube (xenon lamp) 10 of an electronic flash light emitting device (hereinafter referred to as a strobe device) capable of dimming control is provided at the inner part of the color filter 106.
9 is attached with a light reflection plate. It is preferable to use a material having metallic luster or a bright white material for the light reflecting plate so that the amount of reflected light can be increased. As the strobe device, one that employs the voltage dimming method or the capacitor dimming method as the dimming method for the power supply unit, which has the role of discharging the electrical energy stored in the capacitor of the discharge circuit to cause the strobe light emitting tube to emit light, is used. Can be realized. For example, the capacitor dimming method uses a large number of discharge capacitors,
It is excellent in dimming performance because dimming is performed by changing the capacity and number of capacitors involved in discharge with a changeover switch such as a semiconductor switch. The voltage dimming method is excellent in cost because it uses few capacitors.

The luminaire manufactured as described above is also used in each of the main illuminators 11A, 11B and 11C and the sub illuminator 17. As shown in FIG. 9A, stop marks 111 are provided at necessary positions on the band-shaped film forming the color filter 106, and the stop mark detection photosensor 112 shown in FIGS. 9B and 9C. By detecting the stop mark 111, the motor 107 is controlled to perform positioning.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the structure of the control mechanism of the color changer. The color filter 106 includes N color filters (N is an even number for convenience of description) on the film, and each color filter is sequentially numbered from 0 to N.
The number -1 is fixed. As part of the initialization process for the entire photo sticker, which is triggered by the completion of photo sticker payout,
÷ Set the color filter number 2) to the initial position. This is because the maximum time required for the initial positioning can be shortened by setting the color filter in the center and waiting. When the control device 9 of the main body of the photo sticker instructs the color changer to position a certain color filter, the target color filter number is transmitted to the microcomputer controller 113 of the color changer through the interface I / F 6.

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an interface between the controller 9 and the microcomputer controller 113 of the color changer. As shown in the figure, when the color filter number is represented by 4 bits, up to 16 color filters can be designated. If it is necessary to use up to 32 color filters, the interface may be configured so that the number can be represented by 5 bits. The microcomputer control unit 113 determines the rotation direction based on the comparison between the value received from the control device 9 and the filter number currently positioned, and rotates the motor 107 via the I / F 22. Further, “positioning operation in progress” is transmitted to the control device 9 via the I / F 25. The film is wound by the rotation of the film winding shaft 102, and the color filter 104 moves.

The film moves and the photo sensor 112
Each time the stop mark 111 is detected by the microcomputer control unit 1
13 counts it through I / F 24 and I / F 6
When the absolute value of the difference from the number instructed by the control device 9 becomes 1, the rotation speed of the motor 107 is controlled, and when the stop mark at the position where the next number matches is detected, I
Motor stop / positioning is completed via / F22.
Then, the I / F 25 notifies the control device 9 that it is in the “positioning non-operation state”. As a result, the control device 9 can know through the I / F 25 that the color filter 106 has completed the positioning.

FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an example of how to install a lighting fixture incorporating a color changer and a strobe device to the lighting device. Considering the diffusivity of the light so that the irradiation light on the subject becomes suitable for shooting, the lighting fixture is in the direction B in which the light reflection screen 120 (illustrated in cross section) made of a bright white material is provided. To this end, the suspension metal fitting 122 and the shaking prevention member 123 are used for fixing. The mounting position of the device is
The camera 6 is arranged at a position where light is emitted slightly upward with respect to the optical axis of the camera 6.

As shown in this figure, the rear illumination device irradiates the light toward the light reflecting curtain, which is the opposite direction (B direction), not the object direction. The emitted light is reflected and diffused to illuminate the back of the subject 18. Light reflector 1
It is preferable to use a material having a property of efficiently reflecting light, such as a bead material having a high reflection property by scattering glass particles or a mat material having an embossed finish, for the material. Irradiating the subject 18 in the photographing room through a matte milky white or translucent resin cover 121 (shown in section) is an effective method for obtaining illumination light suitable for photographing.

In FIG. 12, the angle of the light emitted by the back lighting unit is fixed by using the shake prevention member 123. However, an angle-movable metal fitting is attached to the hanging metal fitting 122 to set the angle of the back lighting unit. It is also possible to change. In FIG. 12, the angle of the back lighting unit is the subject 1.
The diffused light reflected near the face of No. 8 hits and is set at an angle suitable for clearly displaying the facial expression. This is an angle of about 10 degrees with respect to the perpendicular line 124. By moving the back surface illumination device in the direction C with reference to the vertical line 124, the diffused light reflected by the irradiation light B is irradiated downward from the horizontal direction.
That is, it is possible to irradiate light by deciding a point from the shoulder of the subject to the waist or the foot. The user can also set his or her favorite lighting by moving the lighting device on the back.
