Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce electric power consumption and to eliminate unnecessary light while the shutter is held closed, by prolonging the life of a lamp for projection. CONSTITUTION:While a shutter 2 is held opened, electric current for projection is supplied from a DC power source 6 to a lamp 3 by the detection signal of a detector 8. While the shutter 2 is held closed, the electric current for maintaining the lighting smaller than the current for projection is supplied. Since the current for projection which is large current is supplied intermittently to the lamp 3 and ripple components are reduced, the life of the lamp 3 is prolonged, the need for providing large-sized smoothing circuits as in the prior art is eliminated, further, the electric power consumption is reduced and unnecessary light is eliminated while the shutter is held closed.
