Flash in Camera Viewfinder
Flash in Camera Viewfinder
Cameras are made as compact as possible. The flash unit is approximately the size of the viewfinder which can be combined with the electronic flash to reduce the size further.
The electronic flash is reflected, or slid into position, each securely blocking the viewfinder to prevent any light reaching the photographer’s eye. The flash fires only when a micro switch is closed after the light-blocking device is in place.
