Elinchrom | FAQ

Accessories

How strong enough is the Elinchrom OCF Adapter?

The Elinchrom OCF Adapter is designed to hold up to 1kg (2.2lbs). The Elinchrom-Profoto Adapter (EL26333) should be used for all payloads exceeding that limit.

Will there be dedicated Elinchrom OCF accessories?

Yes, we already have OCF Barndors  and OCF Wide Reflector 16cm 90°, and more is coming.

Do I need an adapter for the ONE/THREE to use the Elinchrom light modifiers I already have?

Yes, you need the Elinchrom OCF adapter included in the Kit for the ONE and the Profoto adapter included in the Kit for the THREE.

Beauty Dish

Is a Deflector with a Beauty Dish and Grid intended to be used together?

It actually depends on the size of your Beauty Dish.

The use of a Deflector and a Grid is only possible on the 70cm Beauty Dish and not on a 44cm.

Old Elinchrom units compatibility with current accessories

We use the same Elinchrom mount since 1974, which means old units are still compatible with actual accessories.

Beauty dish for portraits

For portraits, we would suggest using the Softlite White Reflector, as the Softlite Silver Reflector might be too crispy for portrait shoots.

How much light can cover a Beauty Dish?

The Soflite Beauty Dish 44 cm will cover about 180 cm with a light loss of approximately 4/10th F-Stop from center to edge at 2 or 3 m distance to the background.

Bluetooth Bridge

My unit is not detected in the Elinchrom App or Software?

Enable auto-refresh for a few seconds and then disable it.

Are units with Transceiver RX compatible with the Software / App?

The Transceiver RX (incl. Digital RX, Style RX, and Ranger RX) is not officially supported with the Elinchrom Software/App but can work.

The Transceiver RX is needed to make these units work into the system. The Standby and friendly name function cannot work; however, power and triggering should be possible.

Please note we cannot guarantee this setup will work smoothly without issues.

Connect the Elinchrom Bridge to a device with Bluetooth

  • Download the latest Elinchrom Studio App for iOS or Android and Software for macOS or Windows.
  • Update the Elinchrom Bridge or the Elinchrom ONE/FIVE to the latest Firmware (with the Elinchrom Updater).
  • Activate Bluetooth on your device.
  • Switch ON the Bridge or the Elinchrom ONE.
  • Launch the App/Software and find the connected Bridge / Elinchrom ONE/FIVE displayed in the window.
  • The LED of the Bridge flashes in Blue.
  • Chose the frequency channel 1 to 20, depending on which channel your flash units are set, normally to channel 1.
  • Scan for enabled Elinchrom flash units.
  • Start to control the units.

Battery run time is about 6 to 8 hours, but the Bridge can also be used with the USB micro cable connected to your computer for charging. You can chose if you use the USB cable or the Bluetooth connection.

The flash unit emits fume

If the unit hasn’t been used for a while it’s possible that it accumulated a bit of dust. Before using it, we recommend leaving the unit ON with the modeling lamp for half a day. This will allow the capacitors to reform themselves.
