ABSTRACT:
Reflective device for use with a source of flash illumination, and method, for providing indirect, or, simultaneous direct and indirect illumination of a scene to be photographed. A reflective member, interposed at an angle between the flash source and scene, intercepts flash illumination and reflectively redirects at least a percentage of it for indirect illumination. Reflective member passing means allow some flash illumination therethrough for similtaneous direct illumination, the amount being variable by regulating means such as movable shutters or polarizer sheets mounted on the reflective member. Means are provided for varying the angle of interposition of and for rotating the reflective member. Mounting means for mounting reflective members onto flash units accomodate various removable reflective members.
