Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform the dimming that corresponds to an object distance by stopping light emission after the time of a level at which the flash emission is stored passes, by previously sending distance information, obtained by receiving a reflected ultrasonic wave from an object, to the dimming circuit of an electronic flash device. CONSTITUTION:Transmission part H transmits an ultrasonic wave to an object and reception part I receives its reflected wave to measure the object distance via counter part N. Then, the distance is displayed on display part O and the signal that corresponds to the object distance is sent from counter N to dimming circuit E of discharge light emitting circuit D. A person who is taking a picture makes a focus adjustment over a look at the display on display part O and, after setting the F value in the camera, pushes the start button fully to open the shutter, thereby emitting a flash from the discharge tube. Simultaneously with the flash, light-emission stop signal generating circuit F receives the distance information from counter part N to operate, so that the flash emission of the discharge tube will stop.
