-
A camera accessory associated with a 3-D camera, which was an example of an attempt to revive popular interest in stereo photography. - Function
-
A device used to create brief and bright illumination on the subject of a photograph to allow the photograph to be taken under poor light conditions, or to fill in shadows or create some other effect with light. - Technical
-
This particular type of flash is a useful photographic tool. It has two flash heads: a direct head and a bounce head. The direct head is like most built-in 35mm flashes: it illuminates a dark scene that is directly in front of the camera. The bounce head, however, can be tilted or directed to the preferred angle for the shot (0° to 90° range). The bounce head is great for the creative photographer because it allows him to control shadowing. - Area Notes
