Elinchrom FIVE Monolight Flash Kit is a battery-powered monolight kit built for photographers who need dependable output, flexible control and a workflow that moves easily between studio and location. With Manual, Action, HSS and TTL modes, the FIVE adapts to different ways of working while giving you the control to move quickly when conditions change.
