Abstract of the Disclosure A photographic camera apparatus of the type having an automatic exposer control system for controlling a pair of scanning shutter blade elements, having respective primary aperatures therethrough for collectively defining a gradually varying effective aperture size as a function of the position of the blade elements together with corresponding photocell sweep secondary apertures therethrough for movement in corresponding with the primary apertures to define a small secondary effective aperture for admitting the passage of scene light to a photocell, is adapted for use with either an ordinary flashlamp or a quench strobe. The interchangeability between flash- lamp and quench strobe is made possible by utilizing the command signal to close the shutter blade elements from the camera exposure control system and thereafter providing a signal to the quench strobe to terminate the firing of its flash tube subsequent to the expiration of a time delay after the shutter blade closing command signal. The length of the time delay depends upon whether the camera is operating in an ordinary flash mode or in a "fill- in" flash mode in which there is a high intensity of ambient light. Correct exposure in both modes is easily obtained using the invention.
