Elinchrom Studio Lighting Kits>ELC Pro HD 1000/1000 To Go 2 Light Kit Including Skyport Plus

Elinchrom EL20667.2 Overview

The ELC Pro HD 1000/1000 To Go 2 Light Kit is the perfect choice for photographers who need a reliable and powerful lighting set-up for both studio and on-the-go shoots. This kit includes two 1,000W/s flash heads with built-in EL Skyport SPEED radio receivers, an EL Skyport SPEED transmitter, a ProTec Poly Bag for the lights and two umbrella reflectors.

Elinchrom has packed the ELC Pro HD 1000 with professional features we’ve come to expect from a flash head of this caliber and added quite a bit more. Power is continuously variable from 7 to 1,000W/s while the 300W proportional modeling lamp allows you to preview your settings before exposure. The ELC Pro HD 1000 recycles to full power in just 1.4 sec. with flash durations as short as an action-freezing 1/5,260 sec at lower settings. In fact, up to 20 frames per second is possible at minimum power. An intelligent low noise, temperature activated fan keeps the head cool and pre-flash detector lets you integrate your on-camera flash into your studio system.

Since the heads have built-in 8 channel EL Skyport SPEED receivers, you can trigger them wirelessly at distances up to 393′. The transmitter’s trigger modes allow you to address special situations. The Sequential Mode, for instance enables triggering up to 20 ELCs in bursts or in a continuous cycle. Delayed Mode offers a choice of first or second curtain syncing while Strobo Mode allows single frame stroboscopic action sequences.

Elinchrom ELC Pro HD 1000 Flash Head

The ELC Pro HD 1000 Flash Head from Elinchrom is evidence of the company’s continued commitment to pushing the envelope in monolight design. Elinchrom has packed the ELC Pro HD 1000 with professional features we’ve come to expect from a flash head of this caliber and added quite a bit more. Short recycling times coupled with fast flash durations make freeze-motion, stop-action shooting possible. In fact, up to 20 frames per second is possible at minimum power. An intelligent low noise, temperature activated fan keeps the head cool and lengthens the life of both the flash tube and modeling lamp. A pre-flash detector lets you integrate your on-camera flash into your studio system.

Power, variable continuously from 7 to 1,000W/s, can be mimicked by the 300W proportional modeling lamp to preview your effects. Although Elinchrom provides one, you can swap the sync cord with a separately purchased 8-channel transceiver for wireless triggering from your camera. The head has one built-in to receive the signal. Flash modes allow you to address special situations. The Sequential Mode enables triggering up to 20 ELCs in bursts or in a continuous cycle. Delayed Mode offers a choice of first or second curtain syncing while Strobo Mode allows single frame stroboscopic action sequences. Finally, the auto-sensing multi-voltage power supply means that you can use the ELC Pro HD 1000 anywhere in the world.
