Canon Speedlite EL-5 manual flash

The Canon EL-5 is the second model in Canon's new series of speedlite hand flashes. The first one released, the EL-1, was a tough professional flash with weather protection, and this EL-5 is a more affordable and lighter version of it. The guide number on both devices is the same 60.

It comes with the LP-EL battery familiar from the EL-1 model, so you no longer have to play with AA-sized batteries. This means the charging cycle between shots is shorter, 0.1-1.2 seconds depending on the power

Why do we praise the very low minimum output? In addition to speed and power, this gives you a very subtle amount of additional light when you are shooting close to your subject and don't want the look of a traditional flash photo, but rather amplifying natural light!

• Completely new interface, new menus
• No more batteries: new LP-EL battery (compatible with LC-E6 charger)

The biggest upgrade to the Canon Speedlite EL-5 flash is the battery. The LP-EL battery type is efficient and can take around 350 shots on a full charge. The battery is also necessary for fast shooting, as the flash is ready for the next shot after just 1.2 seconds, even at full power.

The flash battery is charged with the same LC-E6 charger as the NP-L6 batteries, but these batteries cannot be used for flash use, the new LP-EL battery type is required for this.

The flash head is also designed to be durable and offers precise power control and color reproduction. The EL-5 is naturally compatible with Canon's RT radio triggers. The flash head covers a focal length of 24-200mm.

Weatherproof structure.
