• The new Speedlite EL-5 Ver 2 keeps many of the features of the EL-1 model, such as a built-in LED lamp and a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Its wireless range is now up to 164 feet, which is 67% more than the original EL-5 flash. Its classic EL-series selection and joystick make it easy to operate while shooting. Its impressive output range and customizable options also set it apart.
•  The enhanced wireless transmission range of up to 164 feet and customizable features are some of the reasons why photographers will find the EL-5 Ver 2 useful. Its multi-function shoe lets them directly control their settings on their Canon cameras. But, this model is compatible with the company's previous wireless flash units, and it can also be used with smartphones to control their settings.
• The EL-5 Ver. 2 is a versatile high-performance flash that can meet the needs of creative professionals who want to shoot in a dark environment or reduce facial shadows with a kiss of light. Its built-in 76Ws flash companion provides a stable and long-lasting output.
•  The EL-5 Ver. 2 features a guide number of 196.9 and is capable of recycling to full power in 1.2 seconds. It can also produce up to 350 flashes on a single charge using a lithium-ion battery. Its lithium-ion battery can be charged through a compatible LC-E6 charger. Its continuous output of up to 95 times and a minimum power of 2450 flashes make it an ideal choice for shooting photos.
•  The Canon E-TTL II/E-TTL Auto Exposure System is compatible with the EL-5 Ver. 2. When paired with an E-TTL II or E-TTL compatible camera, the system will automatically adjust the flash power to provide the most accurate and consistent exposure regardless of the subject's size, composition, and reflectance.
• Through custom flash modes, users can easily change the settings on their cameras. This feature allows them to shoot with a variety of cameras and their respective shooting modes, and it makes it easier to get the most out of their photos when it comes to capturing wedding details. For instance, by linking the flash's C1 and C2 to the cameras' C3, C4, and C1 respectively, users can recall their settings automatically. Prior to using the custom flash mode, users should register their settings. This will enable the camera to automatically switch the setting to the desired shooting mode.
• The EL-5 Ver.2 retains the same features as its predecessor, such as a high-quality LCD screen, a joystick, and a control dial. When paired with an eligible EOS R-series camera, it can take advantage of its built-in flash for multi-flash shooting and quick flash group control. In addition, users can use the free Canon Camera Connect app to set up their devices with various features, such as multi-flash control, flash compensation, and sync.
• For those who want to shoot with a variety of accessories, such as a flash and a few assistants, the Canon Camera Connect app is useful. It allows users to control their settings remotely using their smartphone. It also lets you adjust the intensity of the light while shooting.
• The flash head features a great zoom range of 24 to 200mm, and it can be expanded to 14mm using the diffusion panel. Manual or automatic zooming ensures that the flash head's coverage matches that of a full-frame camera's 24mm lens. When using the additional 14mm wide panel, you can get wider-angle coverage.
• A built-in LED modeling lamp provides a continuous view of the shadows and light coverage. This versatile tool can be used to check the position of the shadows on a subject and assist with AF-assist. It features five brightness levels and easy onboard control. The EL-5 Ver.2 also has a built-in flash effect that can be used with multiple units.
• The Canon Multi-Function Foot Connector allows you to control your camera and speedlite using your shoe's built-in features. However, this model is only compatible with the company's EOS mirrorless cameras and cannot be used with other accessory shoes.
• The new EL-5 Ver.2 is better than the previous generation of Canon Speedlites, providing enhanced coordination between the flash unit and the camera. It also enables users to customize the button function and create custom flash modes. In addition, the shoe features gold-plated terminals for reliable connections to various cameras, including the Canon R3, R6, R7, R8, and R10.
• The second version of the EL-5 Ver 2 features a rubber seal around its shoe-locking mechanism for added moisture and dust resistance.
