The Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL One Light Portrait Kit is a portable lighting solution for photographers and content creators who want to create soft, natural-looking light with a simple one-light setup. Designed for both studio use and location work, the kit combines the flexibility of the ELB 500 TTL with light shaping tools chosen to help you build flattering portrait light with more control and less complexity.
ELB 500 TTL – Portable power with fast control
At the centre of the kit is the Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL, a battery-powered flash pack built for photographers who need a reliable, flexible system that travels easily. Its compact flash head keeps the setup light and portable, while the included Elinchrom Transmitter Plus gives you wireless triggering for a straightforward workflow across camera systems.
Rotalux Deep Octa 100 cm with Indirect Speedring
This kit includes the Rotalux Deep Octa 100 cm together with the Rotalux Indirect Octa Speedring. The combination is designed to create a soft, wrapping quality of light with the depth and direction needed for refined portrait work. It is a practical way to achieve a natural-looking result that feels controlled, flattering and easy to repeat across different shooting environments.
Boom Arm 63–156 cm
For more precise light placement, the boom arm allows you to position the light exactly where it is needed. Whether you are working with an assistant or refining the angle of your key light on set, it gives you greater control over height, reach and direction without making the setup unnecessarily complicated.
Ready for studio and location work
The ELB 500 TTL is built to move easily between different ways of working. Use it on location when portability matters, then bring the same system into the studio when you need a compact and dependable flash solution. A protective case is included to keep the unit secure during transport and storage.
Expand your workflow when needed
For photographers who want TTL and HSS functionality, the Elinchrom Transmitter Pro is available separately. The system can also be integrated into a mobile workflow using the Elinchrom Bridge and Elinchrom Studio App, making it possible to control compatible flash units remotely from your smartphone.
