Claims
- 1. A flash photography system, comprising:
- first means for providing artificial illuminating light used for illuminating a main object;
- second means for providing a predetermined amount of artificial illuminating light used for illuminating an object other than the main object;
- first means of generating a first initiating signal to cause said first providing means to provide the artificial illuminating light;
- second means for generating a second initiating signal to cause said second providing means to provide the artificial illuminating light other than the time period during which said first providing means is providing the artificial illuminating light; and
- means for controlling said first providing means so that a correct exposure to the main object is attained by means of the artificial illuminating light only from said first providing means; said second providing means illuminating the object other than the main object the predetermined amount of light irrespective of the amount of light controlled by said controlling means.
- 2. The system according to claim 1, wherein said controlling means includes means for receiving and intergrating light from an object and for terminating the provision of the artificial illuminating light when the integrated light reaches a predetermined amount.
- 3. The system according to claim 1, wherein said first generating means is adapted to function first and the second generating means is responsive to the first initiating signal with a predetermined delay.
- 4. The system according to claim 1, wherein said first providing means is for illuminating a main object and said second providing means is for illuminating the background to remove a shadow of the main object on the background.
- 5. The system according to claim 1, wherein said first providing means includes first light emitting means responsive to the first initiating signal and a second light emitting means responsive to the first initiating signal with a predetermined delay, the correct exposure being attained by cooperation of said first and said second light emitting means.
- 6. The system according to claim 3, wherein said second generating means is separable from a camera body at an electric connector therebetween.
- 7. A flash photography system, comprising:
- a camera body including means for generating a first initiating signal and first and second electric connectors both for outputting the first initiating signal;
- a first attachment for providing artificial illuminating light and connecting to said camera body with said first electric connector, including means for causing the provision of the artificial illumination light in response to said first initiating signal; and
- a second attachment for providing artificial illuminating light connected to said camera body with said second electric connectors, including means for generating a second initiating signal in response to said first initiating signal with a predetermined delay, and means for causing the provision of the artificial illuminating light in response to said second initiating signal.
- 8. The system according to claim 7, wherein said second generating means in said second attachment includes means for counting a predetermined time period in response to said first initiating signal to generate said second initiating signal to cause the provision of the artificial illuminating light of said second attachment other than the time period during which said first attachment is providing the artifial illuminating light.
