FLASH PICTURES
Pictures, either indoors or out, can be made with
the aid of a Kodalite Flasholder and flash lamps.
Either "C" size batteries or a Kodak B-C
Flashpack may be installed in the Flasholder as
a power unit. The Kodak B-C Flashpack is a
battery-condenser method of flashing lamps
which gives longer battery life and more de-
pendable bulb-firing.
Flash lamps for use with the Kodalite Flash-
older must be either the SM, SF, No. 5 or No.
25. The use of the SM or SF lamp is preferable
if there is a possibility that the subject may
move. The No. 5 or No. 25 lamps give a little
more light to reach more distant subjects.
