  • Patent number: 6643461
    Abstract: A Photoflash Projection Device and a method of use includes a linear discharge tube in an elongated concave reflector, powered by a self-contained multiplying circuit. The reflector, having a predetermined shape to include a Natural Log Function, novelly projects and spreads a uniform light density over a wideangle/graduated depth area. This permits a user to direct light above the field's rearground to achieve the ideal photographic illumination. The flash unit further includes a support stand mounting bracket that is adjustable relative to the base of the housing. The invention is particularly suited for large Group/Commercial photography.
