Abstract:
A method for operating a light source for a camera, a light source and a camera are disclosed. In an embodiment the method for operating a light source for a camera comprises individually illuminating segments of the scene by the emitters, wherein an illumination parameter is determined for a segment of the scene and an emitter is individually driven on a basis of the illumination parameter, and wherein the illumination parameter is determined by a measurement of a physical variable and/or by an input of a user.

Claim (Index 5):
The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the measurement of the physical variable is carried out by the scene firstly being illuminated in a first illumination by the light source in such a way that the emitters are driven identically, wherein the exposure and/or the colour value of at least one segment are/is ascertained by an image sensor, wherein the illumination parameters of the segment are determined on the basis of the ascertained exposure and/or the ascertained colour value, wherein the scene is subsequently illuminated in a second illumination by the light source, wherein in this case the emitters are operated individually differently on the basis of the illumination parameter of the segment, and wherein the recording is created by the image sensor during the second illumination.
