Abstract
In a light-generating electronic flashlight which has a reflector and first and second discs which may be selectively placed ahead of the reflector for normal and wide-angled illumination of an object to be photographed, respectively, the improvement includes third and fourth discs which may be placed ahead of the reflector. Each of the third and fourth discs have parallel prismatic elements for unilateral deflection of the light generated by the flashlight for the third and fourth discs to displace the flashlight-generated light upwardly and laterally, when the third and fourth discs are placed ahead of the reflector, respectively, and upon the flashlight being in an upright position and directed towards the object to be photographed.
