SOUND-ACTIVATED FLASH TRIGGER FOR HIGH SPEED PHOTOGRAPHY



SOUND-ACTIVATED FLASH TRIGGER FOR HIGH SPEED FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY

Specially for high-speed photographers and photography enthusiasts!

Essentially, this device will trigger the flash once an impact occurs (which will generate a sound) on the object that’s to be photographed.  The sound is then received by the device and will the trigger the activation of the flash.  Before turning on the flash device, there are a few settings to be made, from the settings of the light mode to the delay settings.  With this device, photographers can shoot object impacts at high speeds with the right moment exposure.  This device can work well in a dimly-lit room because when using this device, the camera’s shutter is on the BULB settings or its speed is less than 1 second.



*** Main Features ***

1.       Uses an AT-Mega8 Microcontroller as its main control system.

2.       Includes an internal sound activator which converts sound singlas into digital signals; and also includes a dial with which the user can set the sensitivity of the sound activator.

3.       Also includes an external microphone/microphone condenser.  A microphone jack is located on the side of the device, in which if an external microphone is plugged in, the internal sound activator is automatically deactivated.

4.       Consists of 3 shot modes: SINGLE SHOT, MULTIPLE SHOTS, and STROBE SHOTS.

5.       Consists of 3 delay modes: SOUND DELAY, STROBE DELAY, and STROBE COUNTER.

6.       Powered by 2 9volt-batteries, making this device very compact and mobile.

7.       Uses a 16x2 LCD as the display which eases the user in setting the desired modes.

***MODES***

1.       SINGLE SHOT: this mode activates the flash device once in a single session.

2.       MULTIPLE SHOTS: this mode activates the flash device as many times as it recieves sound signals and the mode will deactivate when the ENTER button is pressed.

3.       STROBE SHOTS: this mode will activate the flash device in a certain interval depending on the settings made by the user.  The intervals of flash activations can be set in the STROBE DELAY and how many times a flash is activated during one intervals is set in the STROBE COUNTER.

***DELAYS***

1.       Sound Delay: The duration of the delay between when a sound signal is received and when the sound activator activates a flash device.

2.       Strobe Delay:  The duration of the delay between flash activation in the STROBE MODE.

3.       Strobe Counter: The amount of  flash activations desired during STROBE MODE.

Which includes:

-          1 unit SOUND-ACTIVATED FLASH TRIGGER

-          2 units of 9-volt batteries (already placed inside the device)

-          2 unit hot shoe adapter

-          2 unit sync cable
