Période

Used from 1951 to the 1980's

Canada

Used with a Crown Graphic camera by a Canadian photojournalist to capture industrial photographs and press photographs for the 'Monetary Times', the 'Globe and Mail' and for various international associations.

Fonction

Produces an instantaneous flash of light (typically around 1/1000 of a second) to help illuminate a scene to be photographed.

Technique

The electronic flash was given to the donor by the manufacturer in 1954. The donor says it was "the first of its kind in Canada!", or at least they were very rarely seen in Canada at the time; and "the weight of the battery, enclosed in aluminum, was 15 pounds!". Mannesmann created many products for larger companies.
