A flash housing for photographic purposes and method for controlling a flash light is disclosed. The flash housing comprises a flash forming element arranged to generate a flash light. The flash housing further comprises a lens element having a substantially circular cross-section and being arranged to let at least part of the generated flash light out of the flash housing so as to obtain the flash. The flash housing further comprises a zoom element rotatably arranged at least partly along the circumference of the lens element. The zoom element is operatively connected to the flash forming element so as to control movement of the flash forming element by manual rotation of the zoom element.

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.

A bracket for live broadcasting comprising a base, a clip body for holding a terminal device is detachably connected to the base, a mirror detachably connected to the base and a fill light detachably connected to the base. The effect of live broadcasting can be improved by using the bracket.

An illumination device capable of appropriately suppressing a temperature rise of a light emitting part, wherein the illumination device comprises a light emitting part configured to emit light for illumination, a cooling part configured to cool the light emitting part. The illumination device acquires a temperature at a first position, acquires a temperature at a second position that is less susceptible to a temperature change of the light emitting part than the first position, determines presence or absence of light emission of the light emitting part, and controls driving of the cooling part based on the acquired temperature at the first position, the acquired temperature at the second position and a determination result of the presence or absence of light emission.

An apparatus for illuminating objects has an emitting surface and at least two illumination devices. The at least two illumination devices are arranged and designed to generated at least two different illumination distributions on the at least one emitting surface.

A flash housing for photographic purposes and method for controlling a flash light is disclosed. The flash housing comprises a flash forming element arranged to generate a flash light. The flash housing further comprises a lens element having a substantially circular cross-section and being arranged to let at least part of the generated flash light out of the flash housing so as to obtain the flash. The flash housing further comprises a zoom element rotatably arranged at least partly along the circumference of the lens element. The zoom element is operatively connected to the flash forming element so as to control movement of the flash forming element by manual rotation of the zoom element.

A lighting device capable of suppressing an excessive temperature rise of a light emission section even when a fan is incapable of normal rotation. The light emission section emits light for illuminating an object. The fan cools the light emission section. A motor driving section drives the fan for rotation. A strobe microcomputer determines whether or not the motor driving section is abnormal, and controls a light emission interval of the light emission section in continuous light emission, based a result of the determination.

A clamp assembly for securing a shoe plate of a camera accessory includes a bracket, a lever ring disposed around the bracket between the first end and the second end, and a base plate. The base plate is configured to move when the lever ring is rotated so as to secure the shoe plate between the base plate and the bracket. The clamp assembly is coupleable to a device that includes a housing and a mount configured to attach to a boom. The housing is rotatable relative to the mount about a rotation axis. The device also includes an actuator assembly and a latch coupled thereto. The actuator assembly is configured to move the latch between an engaged position with the mount, which prevents rotation of the housing relative to the mount, and a disengaged position with the mount, which enables rotation of the housing relative to the mount.
