Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an illumination device for photography that can easily obtain prescribed optical performance even when light emitting elements are arranged in any shape, extend the service life of a light source and reduce the power consumption. <P>SOLUTION: The illumination device for photography employs a plurality of white LEDs arranged as a light source and emits the light emitted from the white LEDs through a filter externally. Thus, the bluish light emitted from the white LEDs can be converted into white light close to the sunray and the device can be configured by using the white LEDs of one kind. Since it is enough to consider only the illuminance without taking into account a color tone for the arrangement of the light emitting elements in this way, the device can easily obtain prescribed optical performance even when the light emitting elements are arranged in any form. Moreover, since the device employs the white LEDs for the light source, the service life of the light source can be extended and the power consumption can be reduced. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a photographing illumination device illuminates an object in a room where the brightness is insufficient so that a video camera or the like can perform photographing. Although a lamp (incandescent light bulb) or the like is used as a light source of this illuminating device for photography, a light emitting diode (LED) is used as an alternative light source due to its short life (about 100 hours) or large power consumption. It is considered to be used.
