The launch of Canon Speedlite EL-5 flash has been postponed to summer due to capacity.
CTOnews.com March 10 news, PhotoRumors said that the Canon Speedlite EL-5 flash originally scheduled for March this year has been postponed to the summer due to capacity reasons, and Adorama and Beverh Photo are now open for pre-order with a list price of $399 (CTOnews.com Note: currently about 2781 yuan).
According to reports, the flash index of Speedlite EL-5 is about 60, the maximum number of continuous flashes can reach more than 95 times, and the total number of flashes in full power flash can reach about 350 times, and the flash performance is not inferior to that of professional SPEEDLITE EL-1.
This product supports wireless transmission, and the flash achieves a small lightweight and cost-effective through streamlining functions, making it a high-end flash suitable for professional users and enthusiasts. The flash is suitable for the multi-function boot model of the EOS R system, the information transmission with the camera is very stable, and the flash control system is efficient and convenient.
The flash uses the same return circuit as EL-1, which can achieve high-efficiency and high-speed return. The call back time is about 0.1 to 1.2 seconds. The full power continuous flash can be carried out for about 30 times at an interval of about 2 seconds. The flash interval may be reduced to about 8 seconds (level 1) or about 20 seconds (level 2) due to heating, but at least full power flashes can be continuously about 95 times before the interval is reduced to about 20 seconds. Compared with SPEEDLITE 600EX II-RT, it greatly shortens the return time and improves the performance of continuous flash. In areas such as fashion photography, which require continuous flash shooting of moving subjects, shooting can be made more smoothly.
There are two LED lights for auto-focusing auxiliary light and molding light. The autofocus auxiliary light can be automatically selected between the LED lamp and the flash light. Auto-focusing auxiliary light can also adjust the amount of light, and when used with a camera that supports this function, the camera can automatically adjust the amount of auxiliary light according to environmental conditions, so that the subject will not feel dazzling.
