The Canon Speedlite EL-5 is a powerful and feature-rich on-camera flash designed for advanced photographers who require speed, endurance, and modern control in a streamlined form factor. Borrowing key technologies from Canon's flagship Speedlite models, the EL-5 combines professional-level output with improved efficiency and intuitive operation for demanding shooting scenarios. Delivering a maximum guide number of 197 feet at ISO 100 and 200mm, the EL-5 provides strong, consistent illumination suitable for portraits, events, and fast-paced assignments. It is powered by a rechargeable LP-EL lithium-ion battery pack, enabling up to 350 full-power flashes per charge and continuous firing of up to 95 flashes in a row. Manual power control from 1/1 down to 1/1024 offers precise exposure control for creative lighting applications. Built-in 2.4 GHz radio wireless functionality allows the Speedlite EL-5 to function as either a transmitter or receiver, supporting wireless triggering and control of up to 15 compatible flash units at distances up to 98 feet. This makes it well suited for multi-light setups without additional accessories. The EL-5 is designed for Canon's Multi-Function Shoe and is compatible only with select EOS R-series cameras that support this interface. Settings can be adjusted directly from the camera or remotely using the Canon Camera Connect smartphone app, providing modern, flexible control for today's professional workflows.
