Honeywell Electronic Flash

A brief but interesting history of electronic flash...

In 1932, Dr. Harold Edgerton of M.I.T., father of electronic flash, developed the basic circuitry to convert stored electrical energy into a short burst of light. With more electricity, you could repeat the flash over again. Electronic flash was born!

Working with Edgerton, Heiland Research Corporation refined and developed the basic circuitry concepts and began manufacturing useable, portable electronic flash units.

In 1939, Heiland developed a method of firing an external flash attachment by tripping the camera shutter.

By the late 1940's, Heiland was the recognized leader in electronic flash.

In 1954, the Heiland Research Corporation merged with Honeywell. Work began immediately on more compact, powerful forms of electronic flash.

In 1965 Honeywell invented the automatic electronic flash. Automatic Strobonars determine the exact amount of light your subject needs for a perfect exposure and deliver just that amount. This eliminates the need for your calculating the correct exposure.
