Product Features in Detail

Compact yet Powerful Design

The new Speedlite EL-100 is only 2.5 x 3.6 x 2.8-inches which makes it more compact compared to other flash accessories that are equally powerful. Weighing only 6.7 ounces(excluding batteries), it's only a single ounce heavier once loaded. It is built with a black matte exterior and hard-shelled ABS plastic. The construction mainly revolves around a manual zoom head located at the top of the flash. 

Fully Adjustable Alignment

Users will rely on this versatile flash due to its adjustability. The Speedlite EL-100 can be adjusted both horizontally and vertically. This makes bouncing light off the walls or ceiling fairy easy, even controlling the direction of the light you are optimizing to make the shot. Found on the backside of the flash head, the numerical angles are listed which helps users finely tune the tilt of the next flash.

Adaptable Flash Support

If you're looking for something as easy as plug and play, the Speedlite EL-100 is definitely for you. The AUTO setting lets your camera determine if flash is needed, while still giving you control over its direction and intensity. The dual setting on the AUTO mode allows you to switch between the various flash groups. You can choose between the groups using a slider on the topside of the EL-100. This lets you move between four different channels smoothly. You can find the labels of each channel on the device's backside.

Set-and-Forget Mode

The most basic way to use the Canon El-100 is by utilizing the set-and-forget mode. This takes care of your flash for you automatically. It is equipped for sending/receiving data signals from your camera or other devices. Using the stroboscopic flash mode sends off rapid shots of light which is best for creating effects with continuous shooting and long exposure.

Infrared Connectivity

Wireless operation for the EL-100 works using the infrared. This gives you a maximum connection of up to 33 feet distance. Avoid putting objects between the EL-100 and its intended connection because sturdy objects can sever your signal entirely.
