Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to photography auxiliary equipment technical field, concretely is a camera hot shoe adapter with light supplementing function. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the photography field, the external flash is a common light supplementing equipment, which is usually installed on the top of the camera through the hot shoe interface of the camera. This design makes the flash and the lens in the same vertical plane, which is convenient for carrying and using. However, in the actual shooting process, especially when using a long focal length lens or equipped with a lens hood, the upper part of the lens barrel and the lens hood may partially block the light emitted by the flash, resulting in unnatural shadows at the bottom of the imaging picture (such as Figures 4-5 , commonly known as "lens shadow" or "flash blocking".

[0003] This problem is particularly evident when shooting at close range or using a wide-angle lens. Since the light of the flash propagates in a straight line, the physical size of the lens or the extension of the lens hood will directly block part of the light, resulting in insufficient illumination of the area below the object being photographed, affecting the uniformity of the picture. Although some photographers adjust the angle of the flash (such as using a bounce flash to reflect the light) or use off-camera flash to alleviate this problem, these methods require additional operations or equipment support, and are not practical in some fast shooting scenarios.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of photography auxiliary device to provide an effective solution to the defects of the prior art. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] Embodiment 1: please refer to Figures 1-3 A camera hot shoe adapter with light supplement function, comprising a heightening seat 1: the top of the heightening seat 1 is provided with a flash hot shoe interface 3, and the bottom of the heightening seat 1 is provided with a camera hot shoe socket 2; the flash hot shoe interface 3 is electrically connected with the camera hot shoe socket 2 to realize signal and power transmission between the camera and the flash.

[0025] The back of the heightening seat 1 is provided with a row of working mode and power-on prompt lights 6, control keys and a charging port.

[0026] Working principle of the embodiment:

[0027] The heightening seat 1 is fixed on the top of the camera through the camera hot shoe socket 2 at the bottom, and the flash hot shoe interface 3 at the top is used for installing an external flash. The physical height of the heightening seat 1 is increased to increase the vertical distance between the flash and the lens, so as to avoid the problem that the light path of the flash is directly blocked by the lens barrel or the lens hood (as shown in the Figures 4-5

[0028] The flash hot shoe interface 3 and the camera hot shoe socket 2 realize signal and power transmission through internal circuits, so as to ensure that the camera can normally control the triggering and power adjustment of the flash, and the original performance of the hot shoe is reserved.

[0029] The working mode and power-on prompt lights 6 on the back of the heightening seat 1 display the connection state of the flash (such as power-on, triggering signal transmission, etc.), so as to facilitate the user to quickly confirm whether the equipment is working normally.

[0030] The physical lifting design of the heightening seat 1 (without limiting the specific shape of the heightening seat 1) makes the light of the flash project from a higher position and avoids the obstruction of the lens or the lens hood (as Figures 4-5 compared), completely solves the problem of shadow at the bottom of the picture, and is especially suitable for long-focus lens or lens hood scenes. The electrical connection function of the hot shoe is reserved, no additional operation or off-camera equipment is needed, the user can directly use the original flash, and it is suitable for quick shooting requirements. Compared with the flash jumping or off-camera flash scheme, the device has a simple structure, does not need complex debugging or additional accessories, and is economical and efficient.
