Patent number: 7588339Abstract: Blue component light emitted from blue LEDs is reflected to a Fresnel lens at a reflecting member having a parabolic cross-section. The fluorescent material is added substantially uniformly in the Fresnel lens. Part of the blue component light is transmitted through the Fresnel lens while another part of blue component light undergoes wavelength conversion at the Fresnel lens. By the wavelength conversion, the fluorescent material in the Fresnel lens is excited by the blue component light and the fluorescent light thus excited emits light containing a yellow color component. The yellow component light resulting from the wavelength conversion is projected via the Fresnel lens as uniform light with the blue component light.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2005Date of Patent: September 15, 2009Assignee: Nikon CorporationInventor: Hideki Matsui

Publication number: 20090074397Abstract: A fully charged battery or an unused battery is set in a battery box of a lighting apparatus. A user turns on an illumination electric source of the apparatus and selects the battery. A maximum number of lighting times Smax when the lighting apparatus causes manual full lighting M1/1 by using the selected battery is stored in a memory of a microcomputer or IC by a user according to an operating button or an instruction on a liquid crystal screen. Next, the user performs normal shooting. A lighting amount (TTL lighting, manual full lighting, or the like) when the user performs shooting is converted to manual full lighting M1/1 to be obtained as a number of lighting times. By comparing the obtained number of lighting times with the maximum number of lighting times Smax, how many times of lighting can still be performed at a maximum is calculated.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 1, 2008Publication date: March 19, 2009Applicant: NIKON CORPORATIONInventors: Naoto Yamada, Hideki Matsui, Zhaoxiang Chen
