Abstract
A flash housing for photographic purposes is disclosed. The flash housing comprises a flash forming element arranged to generate a flash light and a lens element arranged to let at least part of the generated flash light out of the flash housing so as to obtain the flash. The obtainable flash light has a beam lobe with a controllable beam angle. A simulation light generator element is arranged for simulation of the obtainable flash light beam lobe having the controllable beam angle.
Claims19
A flash housing for photographic purposes, said flash housing comprising
- a flash forming element arranged to generate a flash light,
- a lens element arranged to let at least part of the generated flash light out of the flash housing so as to obtain the flash,
- wherein the obtainable flash light has a beam lobe with a controllable beam angle and
- wherein the flash housing further comprises a simulation light generator element for simulation of the obtainable flash light beam lobe having the controllable beam angle.
A method for simulating a flash light setting of a flash light for photographic purposes, said method comprising
- determining an adjustable beam angle of a flash light beam lobe obtainable of a flash housing having a flash forming element arranged to generate a flash light and a lens element arranged to let at least a part of the generated flash light out of the flash light housing so as to obtain the flash, and
- simulating the flash light beam lobe of a simulation light generator element arranged at the lens element, based on the determined beam angle.
