Abstract
A photographic lighting apparatus for consistent and accurate exposure control of a subject before a camera. The apparatus comprises a plurality of light sources, a power supply; a plurality of switches, and a controller. The switches are connected to the plurality of light sources for selectively providing power from the power supply to the light sources. The controller sequentially operates the switches and has user-programmed operational control for manipulating the light upon the subject to create a desired illuminating effect. This sequencing operation of said controller produces accurate exposure of film within the camera.
