ABSTRACT:
A flash device has a flash discharge tube for emitting flash light in response to occurrence of trigger current. A reflector has electrical conductivity, transmits the trigger current to flash discharge tube, and reflects the flash light toward a photographic field in a predetermined illuminating pattern. The reflector includes a peripheral reflective portion and lateral portions. The peripheral reflective portion is curved to cover a rear, a top and a bottom of the flash discharge tube. The lateral portions are disposed on ends of the peripheral reflective portion in a longitudinal direction of the flash device. A trigger segment transmits the trigger current to the reflector. The trigger segment is disposed to push an outer face of the lateral portions for electrical connection with the reflector, to stabilize orientation of the reflector for avoiding changes in the predetermined illuminating pattern.
