(or, I have to pop a flash off and release the power to allow it to recycle the new power setting.. trading battery life for time). When I was using the new\u00a0Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL I did not have this wait time.\u00a0 Like.. ever.\u00a0 I was amazed!\u00a0 Now, the actual flash, to flash recycle time (while very fast) was about the same as the other Quadra \/ ELB 400 packs that I have owned and used.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#2 &#8211; The battery.<\/strong>\u00a0 I don&#8217;t know what kind of magic battery they have put in this pack.. but, in real world use.. I went a full day with a model in Miami heat, took about 700 shots of her, and still had lots of battery left over. (see my video).\u00a0 To compare, on the same shoot my &#8220;rim light&#8221; (my old Quadra pack) with a new Lithium battery, had to be replaced once.. and then almost exhausted a second one.\u00a0 So, there is a HUGE improvement to battery capacity from my testing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#3 &#8211; The build quality of this pack is the best yet.\u00a0<\/strong> When the ELB 400 came out, I did not upgrade from my Quadra (still have not), only because at the core of what it is, it is about the same.\u00a0 After all power is power, and light is light.\u00a0 Except&#8230; the build quality.\u00a0 The ELB 400 was a huge step up in that regard.\u00a0 Better weather sealing, better caps that are spring loaded for the head outlets (no more screw down ones, so it was much faster to access), a much better LCD read out, and better buttons.\u00a0 Now.. The new\u00a0Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL is another whole story.\u00a0 This is in a class all in it&#8217;s own.\u00a0 It just &#8220;feels&#8221; more sturdy, VERY weather sealed, and has a level of refinement that builds more confidence.\u00a0 One specific area that was always a weak spot on the Quadra \/ ELB 400 was where the battery attaches to the pack.\u00a0 I see now, there is a new latch and it is perfect.\u00a0 It is solid, and feels very sturdy and I can tell from my own experience that this was a welcome design change.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#4 &#8211; Size &amp; Weight.\u00a0<\/strong> Having owned the Quadra for so many years, I have been accustomed to it&#8217;s small \/ lightweight nature.\u00a0 I was worried that a slightly more powerful pack, with more battery capacity would mean a larger, and heavier pack.\u00a0 Yes, the Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL is slightly larger and weighs almost exactly one pound more (which is not very noticeable) then the ELB 400 \/ Quadra. However, to spite it&#8217;s modest increase in size and weight.. it still remains tiny, and extremely portable. (see my video for more details).<\/p>\n<p><strong>#5 &#8211; The menu system.<\/strong>\u00a0 It&#8217;s dead simple.\u00a0 My 5yr old son can fully operate it.\u00a0 The older Quadra packs, are a nightmare when it comes to the menu system.\u00a0 You need to have a cheat sheet, remember codes, and have a Vodka tonic on hand to get through it.\u00a0 The ELB 400 came out, and was a HUGE improvement in this regard (though not enough to justify my spending to upgrade).\u00a0 Now, using the\u00a0Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL,\u00a0&#8230; within the first 10 seconds of turning on the pack I was at home with it.\u00a0 ANYONE could easily figure out how to set this up, and use it.\u00a0 The menu system is a breeze, the LCD is insanely nice and the master dial that turns through all of the menus feels like it came out of a Mercedes Benz.\u00a0 Yes, it is that nice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TTL &#8211;<\/strong> I can&#8217;t comment on this too much, other then I will say it works as you would expect.\u00a0 Yes, it is a little ironic that one of the main selling points of this pack (TTL) is the one feature I will likely never use.\u00a0 This is just me.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a personal choice.\u00a0 I have always used manual settings for flash, and I talk about my reasons this in the video.\u00a0 Now, I know many photographers use this, and in some cases is required.. so to all of you, you can rest assure that it works very well.\u00a0 BUT..\u00a0 It uses one head (unlike the different heads used on the Quadra \/ ELB 400) and it comes down to HSS vs Hi-Sync.\u00a0 In my own testing, I much prefer the HS heads (Hi-Sync) with the ELB 400 over having a TTL \/ HSS setup.\u00a0 Again, if TTL (shooting automatic) is required for you.. then, yes the ELB 500 will be a great choice, and I do think the HSS that they have is more efficient then the competitors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7563\" src=\"https:\/\/thp.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/ELB_500_TTL_Review_02.jpg\" alt=\"Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL Review\" width=\"960\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travisharris.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/ELB_500_TTL_Review_02.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.travisharris.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/ELB_500_TTL_Review_02-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.travisharris.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/ELB_500_TTL_Review_02-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travisharris.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/ELB_500_TTL_Review_02-819x1024.jpg 819w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>DID NOT LOVE:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>#1 &#8211; Cords<\/strong>.\u00a0 If you take a look at the market, you will see more and more heads are now cordless.\u00a0 The fuss of dealing with cords can be (and is) really annoying, and this is just the starting point. For the past 7 years, I have had to replace a cord for one of my Quadra packs about 6 times.\u00a0 I know how to carefully coil a cord (you can YouTube the best methods on doing this) but, to spite the best precaution, they seem to fail.\u00a0 No idea.\u00a0 It&#8217;s just annoying, and costly at $98.00\/each.\u00a0 I was hoping that the new\u00a0Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL would be cordless.\u00a0 It is not.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#2 &#8211; Cords are permanently attached to the heads.<\/strong>\u00a0 So, you should be able to see where I am going with this from reading the above.\u00a0 If the cord fails, now the head will be useless. With the Quadra \/ ELB 400 I could take the cord off the back of the head.\u00a0 That&#8217;s no longer the case.\u00a0 Time will tell if this will be an issue or not.\u00a0 Now, it&#8217;s worth noting that the cords on my Ranger Speed AS 1100ws pack (also permanently attached to the heads) have never failed.\u00a0 BUT, this is a MUCH stronger cord.\u00a0 At a glance the ELB 400 \/ Quadra cords, and the\u00a0Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL cords are the same, and this worries me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#3 &#8211; Remote.<\/strong> It&#8217;s way, way too slow to &#8220;boot up&#8221;.\u00a0 In fact, that&#8217;s the problem.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t want a remote that has to &#8220;boot up&#8221; I want one that is ON or OFF.\u00a0 Now, this has nothing to do with the\u00a0Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL at all.\u00a0 This is the same remote that is used for all of the packs.\u00a0 Regardless, it&#8217;s a talking point and something I can&#8217;t stand.\u00a0 In my video I show what I am talking about, and compare this to another remote (Cannon) and the difference is night and day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#4 &#8211; LED battery indicators.<\/strong>\u00a0 They have always been on the outside (side) of the battery&#8217;s so that you can press one button and quickly see the real charge status of the battery itself.\u00a0 That is no longer the case with the new battery.\u00a0 There is no side LED indicator, instead it&#8217;s now located on TOP of the battery, meaning you can only see it when the battery is off the pack.\u00a0 Which, is annoying in many situations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#5 &#8211; Total power.<\/strong>\u00a0 500ws is great, and I have used 400ws for years and years for most all of my production shoots.\u00a0 It&#8217;s rare when I truly &#8211;actually&#8211; need my bigger Ranger Speed AS pack (1100ws).\u00a0 But&#8230;\u00a0 But&#8230; I think there was an opportunity here with the\u00a0Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL to get a little more power into the pack.\u00a0 First of all, the real world difference between 400ws, and 500ws is about 1\/3 &#8211; 2\/3 of a stop depending.\u00a0 It&#8217;s really nothing much.\u00a0 I would have loved to have seen 800ws, or at the very least 600ws at the min.\u00a0 This would have brought the pack more in line with other competitors, and REALLY given someone like me a reason to switch.\u00a0 The fact that I got a crazy amount of flashes from one battery charge (while impressive) is also an indicator that they could have upped the power output and still maintained a great battery life.\u00a0 I think anyone would agree, to take away some capacity in exchange for more power.\u00a0 But, I know it&#8217;s more complicated then that LOL, it&#8217;s just how I see it as a photographer looking at the situation in practical terms.\u00a0 After all, I&#8217;m kinda the person who buys this stuff \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7564\"

about wraps up my honest thoughts on the\u00a0Elinchrom ELB 500 TTL.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a beautiful, sturdy, elegant and reliable piece of hardware.\u00a0 I would trust it with the most high profile of assignments, and if TTL is your thing, then this is a great option.\u00a0 Even if TTL is not your thing (like me) it&#8217;s still an amazing pack, and a likely upgrade for me in the near future
