Abstract: A light focusing device for detachably coupling to a camera with a built-in flash. The device comprises a mount for detachably coupling to the camera; a housing coupled with the mount, the housing configured to enclose the built-in flash when the built-in flash is an enabled position; and a lens coupled with the housing such that light generated by the built-in flash is focused by the lens such that intensity of the light is increased farther away than what the built-in flash is able to do on its own.

Abstract: A photographic system includes a first light grid including cells, and a first alignment feature. A bezel including a retainer for retaining at least the first light grid, and an alignment feature for aligning at least the first light grid within said light grid retainer. A formable portion including a reflective surface, wherein the formable portion is for retainably formed into a snoot, wherein said bezel is disposed at a distal end of the formable portion, and wherein the reflective surface is for reflecting light from a photographic light source within the formable portion. A base portion coupled to the formable portion, wherein the base portion is for coupling to the photographic light source.

Abstract: A system and method for effectively performing a white balance procedure for electronic cameras includes a neutral density diffusion light filter assembly adapted to be attached over the lens of a camera-type device equipped with an electronic device that captures image data using an image sensor device. Alternatively, the diffusion filter could be inserted internally in association with the lens assembly or built into the camera body as an external window associated with an independent image sensor device. The diffusion filter acts as an illuminance integrator of broad light acceptance angle to document light conditions (incident or reflective) that exist at the time an image is captured, thereby enabling a white balance operation at point of capture and production of a computer-generated image with little or no colorcast and requiring minimal (if any) subsequent manual color adjustment.
