In an electronic flash device, a driving circuit (12) drives a piezoelectric transformer (13) in response to an oscillation signal of a predetermined frequency, which is output from an oscillation circuit (11). A switch (14) is provided in series in a line that connects the output of the piezoelectric transformer (13) and a capacitor (3). When the switch (14) is ON, the output voltage from the piezoelectric transformer (13) is rectified by a rectifier circuit, and charges the discharge capacitor (3) as electric energy for discharging a discharge tube (4). When the switch (14) is turned off, and the output voltage from the piezoelectric transformer (13) is applied to the discharge tube (4), the discharge tube (4) emits flash light by the electric energy stored in the discharge capacitor (3) in response to that applied voltage as a trigger.
