The Canon Speedlite EL-1 Flash is a powerful, L-Series Speedlight, that is powered by an LP-EL Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery Pack, providing a powerful guide number of 60m at ISO100, and Canon‘s fastest (at the time of writing) recycling time of 0.9 seconds at full power.
Another standout feature of the Canon Speedlite EL-1 Flash is the ability to adjust Flash output between full (1/1), and 1/8192.
Other than decreasing exposure, stopping down on Flash output also decreases Flash duration, enabling the Flash to shoot bullet-time and other high speeds Flash photography subjects.
The Canon Speedlite EL-1 Flash is not just powerful but also very durable; an active cooling system prevents the Flash from overheating, and a weather-resistant construction provides extra protection in less-than-ideal conditions.
Other features of the Speedlite EL-1 include: a zoom of 24-200mm, 2.4 GHz wireless radio or optical transmission, an Infrared AF assist beam, up to 2345 Flashes from a single charge, and a built-in LED modelling light with colour temperature and brightness controls.
Fast 0.1-0.9 sec recycling time
Sports and action photographers will love the fast 0.1-0.9 sec recycling time of the EL-1 Flash; allowing confident high speed, high bust shooting.
Up to 2345 Flashes from a single charge
A power-dense Canon LP-EL battery powers the Flash to provide not only fast shooting speeds and reliability, but also up to 2345 Flashes from a single charge.
An accurate battery level indicator lets you know when it’s time to recharge or replace your battery.
Built to endure: Dust and water resistance & active cooling
The EL-1 is backed up by the same degree of dust and water resistance as Canon‘s L-Series lenses, and an active cooling system prevents overheating, enabling users to shoot for longer and in confidently in bad conditions.
Shoot wirelessly with the radio or optical trigger
Light your subject from anywhere in the scene, controlling the EL-1 wirelessly with a radio or optical trigger.
Use multiple Speedlites together (as individual units or groups) for highly creative lighting.
Built-in bi-colour LED modelling light
A built-in bi-colour LED modelling light lets you see where and how the EL-1‘s Flash output will look, and preview where shadows will fall.
Manual Flash output can be varied between full and 1/8192 power.
