ABSTRACT:
An energy-saving electronic flash unit for a rapid sequence of flash exposures includes status indicator apparatus operable for signaling the readiness of the flash unit for the next flash in the sequence as a function of the flash energy expended to produce the previous flash. When the energy retained by a flash-firing capacitor at the termination of the preceding flash exceeds the energy expended in producing that flash, energy-monitoring circuitry causes a status indicator device to signal that the flash unit is sufficiently charged for the next exposure in the sequence.
