Why did Elinchrom implemented TTL technology in your latest unit?
We are in a world where we need to work faster with an efficient workflow.
This is why we introduced TTL within our portfolio of products.
Can a TTL Elinchrom unit be integrated in an existing Elinchrom setup with Hi-Sync and HSS altogether?
Yes, it works seamlessly.
Is it possible to use a TTL Elinchrom unit in manual mode rather than TTL?
Yes of course, TTL is only here to help you if needed.
If you don't want TTL, you can just as easily use it in manual.
You can start in TTL, lock exposure and then switch to manual, we call this Manual Lock.
Can I enable TTL and HSS on the ELC 125/500?
Yes you can.
TTL and HSS features are implemented in the ELC 125 and the ELC 500.
Where can I find the technical specifications of the ELC 125 and ELC 500?
Here you can find them:
Where can I download the ELC 125/500 Manuals and Quick Start Guide?
What is the difference between the ELC and the ELC Pro HD?
The ELC Pro HD is Elinchrom’s top of the range compact unit.
It offers a more powerful halogen modelling lamp, faster recycling times and is available with more power if necessary.
The ELC on the other hand offers TTL, HSS and an LED modelling lamp.
I received my new Elinchrom unit and I was surprised to see more than 700 flash counts with over 2 hours of total use. Is this normal?
The unit has not been used for demo or other purposes.
To ensure a proper and quality unit reliability, the components are driving through a burn-in test which can be about 48 hours with an automated process. It is more a charge/discharge and on/off process to test and burn-in components.
Can I use a Speedlight on the camera with the TTL feature and use an Elinchrom unit?
You can trigger Elinchrom flashes with Speedlights.
For a correct synchronisation, you need to use the pre-flash feature of the photocell.
Now the photocell is correctly adjusted and will only trigger with the main flash.
On TTL units, what is the difference between Action ON or OFF?
Action ON means that the focus is on providing the fastest flash duration while trading a bit of colour temperature stability.
Action OFF means that the focus is on providing the best possible colour temperature stability while trading flash duration speed.
