The Elinchrom ONE is a departure for the Swiss lighting manufacturer, which until recently only offered portable outdoor battery flash units with a separate flash head and power pack. The ONE is a single-piece monobloc design aimed at photographers who prefer the freedom to work unplugged without cables.
Features
Unlike some battery-powered outdoor flashes, the Elinchrom ONE features an exposed flash tube, rather than one concealed behind a frosted flat front unit. Exposed flash tubes offer greater creative opportunities, giving a harder light that fills light modifiers and shapers more evenly. In a first for a portable location flash, it employs a non-removable battery pack, which can be charged using either a mains supply or a USB-C power bank. Along with manual control, a through-the-lens (TTL) function allows your camera to calculate exposure, while High Speed Sync (HSS) enables use of shutter speeds faster than the camera’s native flash synchronisation speed. This is especially useful when working in bright ambient light conditions with wide lens apertures.
The flash power range covers 7-131Ws over five stops in either 0.3 or 0.1 stop increments. Flash duration ranges from 1/155s to 1/1530s in normal mode, while in the fast/action mode, it runs from 1/625s to 1/7000s, giving even greater action-freezing capability. Recycling time between flashes is 0.06-0.9 seconds. The colour temperature is 5600K ±150K in normal mode, and 5900K for action; these are marginally better than flashes of a similar type from other manufacturers. The flash tube is protected by a clear glass dome with a frosted plastic protective cover/diffuser. This is an improvement over previous Elinchrom battery flashes, where the flash tube was exposed.
