Introducing the Canon Speedlite EL-5

The Canon Speedlite EL-5 is a reliable and high-performance flash, well-suited for reportage and wedding photography. Packed with professional features, it boasts a guide number of 60 and a recycle time of 0.1 to 1.2 seconds. Its rechargeable Li-ion LP-EL battery offers a long battery life (up to 85 full-power flashes on a single charge), and when subtle lighting is required, the manual power setting allows photographers to adjust the flash to as low as 1/1024th of its maximum power.

The dual LED illumination provides a modeling light or autofocus assist illumination in low-light conditions. The Speedlite EL-5 is the first flash in the range to offer a multi-function hot shoe compatible with EOS R series cameras. Finally, it offers several features such as wireless radio control for up to 15 additional flashes and intuitive recall of camera menus via the joystick.
