Elinchrom FIVE Outdoor Portrait Kit is a portable lighting kit built for photographers and content creators who need dependable power, flexible control and a setup that works just as well on location as it does in the studio. Built around the Elinchrom FIVE, this kit combines battery-powered performance with practical light shaping tools to help you create soft, controlled portrait light with less friction in the workflow.
FIVE – Always ready for location and studio work
At the centre of the kit is the Elinchrom FIVE, a 500 Ws battery-powered monolight with a powerful bi-colour LED for video work. Designed for photographers who need one system for different environments, it delivers up to 450 full-power flashes per battery and includes an extra battery for longer sessions and added peace of mind. The included Elinchrom Transmitter Plus lets you trigger the unit wirelessly from your camera, helping you work faster and with greater freedom on set.
Faster control with Elinchrom Studio
Elinchrom FIVE includes built-in Bluetooth, making it possible to control settings directly through the Elinchrom Studio App on your smartphone. This gives you a faster way to adjust your lighting remotely and keep the workflow moving. The FIVE can also work as a bridge for other compatible Elinchrom studio flashes, allowing you to control multiple units through the same app.
Deep Umbrella 125 cm with Diffuser
The kit includes the Elinchrom Deep Silver Umbrella 125 cm together with its Translucent Diffuser. This combination creates a soft and indirect quality of light in a format that is still practical to carry and set up on location. It is a strong choice for portrait photographers who want flattering light with more control over direction and spread.
Light Stand 88–235 cm
To support the lighting setup safely, the kit includes an adjustable light stand with a working range from 88 cm to 235 cm. It provides stable support while keeping the kit practical for transport and everyday use. A protective case is also included to make storage and transport of the FIVE simpler and more secure.
Expand the system when needed
For photographers who want TTL and HSS functionality, the Elinchrom Transmitter Pro is available separately. With the Transmitter Pro, you can access TTL on the Elinchrom FIVE for a faster starting point when setting exposure. High Speed Sync and Hi-Sync are automatic with supported Elinchrom units and allow synchronisation at speeds up to 1/8000s. This gives you more flexibility to freeze motion, reduce ambient light or work with wider apertures in bright conditions.
