Canon Speedlite EL-1

The Canon Speedlite EL-1 is a fast, precise and dependable flashgun that delivers the kind of performance that professional photographers demand when the pressure is on. You can expect up to 2345 flashes from a single charge, a rechargeable Li-ion battery and an accurate battery level indicator to ensure you know when it is time to replace. The Speedlite is dust and water-resistant and also has an active cooling system to prevent overheating so that you can shoot for longer.


Key Features:

  • Fast 0.1-0.9 sec recycle times
  • Weather-resistant construction
  • Accurate battery level indicator
  • Rechargeable Li-ion battery
  • Active cooling system
  • Built-in LED modelling light
  • Guide number 60m 
  • Wide range of power levels

For when you only get one chance

For those unrepeatable moments, when you can’t ask your subject to simply ‘do it one more time’, there is the EL-1. Absolute reliability and blistering performance, plus advanced wireless communication and a high-performance rechargeable battery, make this the ultimate Speedlite.

Prepared for every moment

Be ready for anything. Super-fast 0.1-0.9 sec1 recycle times mean bursts of up to 170 full-power flashes2, plus high-speed bursts at lower power levels are also possible.

Power when you need it most

A high-performance LP-EL battery powers the unit’s blisteringly fast shooting speeds and shot-to-shot reliability. Expect up to 2345 flashes from a single charge. An accurate battery level indicator6 lets you know when it’s time to recharge or replace your power source

Shoot with confidence

When the pressure’s on, you can count on the EL-1 to deliver. Its guide number of 60m7 is backed up by the same degree of dust and water resistance as our L-Series lenses. An active cooling system prevents overheating, so you can shoot for longer

Flexibility and control

Light your subject from anywhere in the scene, controlling the EL-1 wirelessly with a radio or optical trigger. Use multiple Speedlites together (as individual units or groups) for highly creative lighting

Be more creative with your lighting

A built-in bi-colour LED modelling light lets you see where and how the EL-1’s flash output will look, and preview where shadows will fall. Manual flash output can be varied between full and 1/8192 power8
