Abstract
A lighting device that stores a rotation angle of a head unit, on which a user's intention is properly reflected. The lighting device includes a main unit, a head unit that includes a light emission section and is rotatable with respect to the main unit, a bounce angle storage circuit that stores a rotation angle of the head unit with respect to the main unit, a bounce angle detection circuit that detects whether or not the head unit is rotated with respect to the main unit, and a rotation angle of the head unit, and a storage button. When rotation of the head unit is detected, rotation angles detected by the bounce angle detection circuit last time are stored in the bounce angle storage circuit in response to a predetermined operation for releasing the storage button from a depressed state.
