Camera internal flash circuit
The circuit integrates a light measurement subsystem with a flash activation mechanism, providing essential functionalities for exposure control in various camera systems. The light measurement circuit is critical for assessing ambient light levels, which informs the flash circuit when to trigger, ensuring optimal exposure during photography.
The light measurement circuit employs transistors VT1 and VT2, which serve as amplifiers to process the signal from the light metering component RG. RG typically consists of a photodiode or a phototransistor that generates a current proportional to the incident light intensity. This current is then amplified by VT1 and VT2, allowing for precise measurement of light conditions.
The output from the light measurement circuit feeds into the flash circuit, which is responsible for activating a flash unit. This circuit may include a timing mechanism to delay the flash activation until the optimal moment, based on the ambient light reading. The interaction between the light measurement and flash circuits ensures that the camera can adapt to varying lighting conditions, providing photographers with the ability to capture well-exposed images in diverse environments.
In summary, the described circuit plays a pivotal role in enhancing the functionality of integrated camera systems by ensuring accurate light measurement and flash synchronization, thereby improving overall image quality.This circuit is composed of the light measurement circuit and the flash circuit, as the figure shows. It can be used in the POPTICS (one kind of popular integration camera), the Franka X-500 and the WIZEN-860S cameras.
