Description

With the powerful Canon Speedlite EL-5 flash, you can expose subjects up to 60m away. So you can easily move farther away from your subject. Control the flash with the LCD screen of the camera, the Canon Camera Connect app, or via the buttons on the flash. You attach the flash with the Canon Multi-Function Foot, which ensures fast communication with your camera. The flash has a 2.4GHz radio signal, so you can wirelessly connect it to a Speedlite transmitter. On a full charge, you can flash up to 350 times before you'll have to charge it again, so you can feel free to take photos on location. Here, you can choose which subjects you want to expose exactly, because you can turn the flash both horizontally and vertically.

Separate charger for flash battery not available.

  • Looks solid
  • It is not mentioned anywhere that you have to buy a separate battery charger. It is not referred to either. So you cannot directly test how it works. And then for so much money
Because it was not indicated that the battery had to be charged with a separate charger, I was not able to test it extensively.

No charger included. Missed opportunity.

  • It feels solid
  • Pivot points go without any problems
  • There is no battery charger included. That is not mentioned anywhere. And so I have not been able to test it. For such an expensive device it is a missed opportunity that there is no charger included for 22,-
Because there was no charger included. And I didn't see anywhere that it wasn't in the package, I couldn't test it. I also found it quite heavy.
