Canon Speedlite EL-1 - CH Warranty

Top novelty 

When you only have this a chance

For those unrepeatable moments when you can't just tell your subject do it again, there's the Speedlite EL-1. Total reliability and literally lightning-fast performance, plus advanced wireless communications and a high-performance battery, make it the ultimate speedlite flash unit

Ready for any moment

Be ready for anything. The extremely fast flash recharge time of only about 0.1 - 0.9 sec.1allows up to 170 flash fires at full power. Plus, high-speed continuous shooting is possible at lower power levels.

Power when it counts

The powerful LP-EL battery provides the Speedlite EL-1's enormously fast triggering speed from flash release to flash release. You can expect up to 2,345 flash firings from one charge. The precise battery level indicator4 lets you know exactly when you need to recharge or replace the battery.

Reliably good shots

When the pressure is on, you can count on the Speedlite EL-1 to deliver. In addition to a guide number of 603 , the flash offers the same dust and splash protection as our L Series lenses. An active cooling system prevents overheating, so you can realize much longer usage times.

Flexibility and control

The Speedlite EL-1 can be triggered both wirelessly and optically. So you can illuminate your subject as needed. Use multiple Speedlites together (individually or in groups) for highly creative lighting.

Get even more creative with light

The built-in dual-color LED assist light lets you see where and how the Speedlite EL-1 is illuminating your subject. There's also a preview of where shadows will fall. Manual flash output can be varied between full and 1/8,192 power5.
