Flash bracket with shutter-synchronized spotlight

摘要

A portable lighting system for performing photography in poor light situations. The lighting system is composed of a rigid frame consisting of a base portion (124A) for mounting a camera (36) and a raised portion (124B) that uses a ball-joint (79) and a rigid arm (120) to support a spotlight (121) and a flash unit (122). A controlling device (31) for the spotlight is positioned above a pistol grip (91) on the raised portion (124B). The controlling device is activated by a trigger (20) and can be adjusted to synchronize the lighting system with the camera shutter so that the lighting system can not interfere or adversely effect the photographic results.
