ABSTRACT:
In a flash photography mode for a camera, a preliminary flash is generated for a substantial duration and substantially constant intensity prior to the primary flash used for actual photographing such that the diaphragm aperture of the camera may be changed from an initial aperture size by a control signal generated by a light receiving element for receiving light through the diaphragm aperture during the duration of the preliminary flash, which control signal interrupts the stopping-down of the aperture to determine the appropriate aperture size for the photographic conditions.
