Unleash Your Creative Vision with the Canon Speedlite EL-5 Flash

Elevate your photography and master any lighting situation with the Canon Speedlite EL-5, a high-performance flash designed to meet the demands of professional and enthusiast photographers. Engineered specifically for the next-generation Multi-Function shoe of compatible EOS R series cameras, the EL-5 delivers an unparalleled combination of power, speed, and advanced wireless control, making it an essential tool for your kit.

Exceptional Power and Blazing-Fast Speed
Never miss a critical moment. The Speedlite EL-5 boasts a powerful Guide Number of 60 (m, ISO 100), providing ample illumination for a wide range of subjects and distances, from portraits to event coverage. At its core is the high-performance, rechargeable LP-EL lithium-ion battery pack, a significant upgrade from traditional AA batteries. This dedicated power source enables incredibly fast recycle times, ranging from just 0.1 to 1.2 seconds, ensuring your flash is always ready for the next shot. Capture long sequences without interruption, thanks to the battery´s capacity for approximately 350 full-power flashes on a single charge.

Advanced Wireless Control for Complex Setups
Break free from the hot-shoe and create dynamic, multi-light scenes with ease. The Speedlite EL-5 features a sophisticated built-in 2.4GHz radio wireless transmitter and receiver. As a commander, it can control up to 15 other compatible Speedlites in five separate groups, giving you complete creative freedom over your off-camera lighting. The intuitive interface and reliable radio communication make setting up and adjusting complex lighting arrangements faster and more efficient than ever.

Intuitive Design and Professional Precision
The Speedlite EL-5 is built for the working professional. Its new, user-friendly layout, complete with a joystick and familiar button configuration, allows for quick and instinctive adjustments on the fly. For the first time, dual white LED lights serve as a bright and adjustable modeling lamp, allowing you to pre-visualize the effects of your flash and assist with AF in low-light conditions. For ultimate creative control, the manual power range is incredibly versatile, extending from full 1/1 power down to a minute 1/1024 power, perfect for subtle fill light or detailed macro work. Built with a weather-resistant construction matching that of professional EOS R cameras, the EL-5 is a durable and reliable partner for shooting in challenging environments.
