Abstract
In this strobo apparatus, in a strobo controlling circuit in which such self-arc extinction-type gate-controlling type switching device as an IGBT is connected in series with a flash discharge tube to control the flash of the discharge tube, a bias voltage controlling the on/off operation of the above-mentioned gate-controlling type switching device is obtained from a biasing condenser charged with an exciting current of the flashing discharge tube or directly from a power source voltage boosting circuit through a resistance or sub-condenser.
