ABSTRACT:
A boom and camera support adapted to be carried on a mobile tripod with the boom extending laterally and upwardly from said support. The boom carries a main photographic lighting device on the outer end of an arm swingingly supported at its inner end on the outer end of the boom for movement of said lighting device in an annularly extending generally horizontally disposed path about a vertically extending axis at the outer end of said boom. Said lighting device is at a uniform picture-taking lighting distance from a subject on said axis spaced below said boom.
A second photographic lighting device is supported on the outer end of a second arm that is swingingly supported at its inner end for movement in an annular horizontally disposed path about a generally vertical axis at a point on said boom intermediate its ends. This device includes a fill light.
A third tip light, or lighting device, at the outer end of the boom is supported on the boom for movement longitudinally of the latter outwardly thereof different distances.
Said main and second lighting devices are adapted to be moved to positions at the same side of the boom, or one may be at one side and the other at the opposite side.
Each of the lighting devices includes a strobe light back to back with a quartz or incandescent light directed substantially oppositely outwardly and supported for movement about an axis so the quartz lamp may be employed for television or motion pictures, or may be directed onto a sitter below the outer end of the boom for portraiture. In the latter instance the strobe lights will be directed away from the sitter against a reflector, preferably of the umbrella type to provide the picture-taking light, after the quartz or incandescent light has been turned off.
