On the face of it, the Canon Speedlite EL-5 looks like something of a bargain. It shoehorns most of the features of the flagship Canon Speedlite EL-1 into a more compact, lightweight build, including a 24-200mm motorised zoom head with a hefty Gn 60 maximum power rating, a secondary twin LED lamp for constant lighting, modelling and AF-assist, and advanced flash modes, such as high-speed sync, rear-curtain sync and programmable strobe.
The EL-5 also runs on the same Canon LP-EL
