Elinchrom brings ELB 500 TTL compatibility for Sony and Olympus users with Fujifilm to shortly follow.

Canon®, Nikon®, Sony®, Olympus® and Panasonic® users can now have it all. All existing Elinchrom HS Transmitters can be updated to the Transmitter PRO version, which includes TTL functionality for the ELB 500 TTL.

Right after Nikon and Canon, Hi-Sync, HSS and TTL are now available for Sony and Olympus users too.

TTL, HSS or Hi-Sync. All features a photographer may need are now compiled in one single transmitter.

Using an ELB 1200 with Hi-Sync synchronisation or an ELB 500 TTL with HSS, the Transmitter PRO will detect automatically in which mode to switch. Even better, using an ELB 1200 with a Hi-Sync head along with a ELB 500 TTL in the same setup is possible (manual mode). Hi-Sync and HSS just work seamlessly.

Compatibility for all with the ELB 500 TTL.

The ELB 500 TTL is the ideal tool for photographers who find themselves in time sensitive shooting environments where the inherent speed of TTL lets them capture images at the speed of life or for those who simply prefer the convenience of TTL.

The “Manual Lock” functionality allows photographers to get an initial “lock” on their exposure in TTL and then switch to manual mode to further adjust their exposure as they need or to explore different creative effects.

A new version (2.2) for Canon and Nikon also brings more features, stability and support for third part devices such as Rotolight.

These features are built-in right from the start on versions 2.1 for Sony and Olympus.

I just released this short Addison’s Disease awareness documentary, shot mostly on GH5 with Leica 12-60mm and 100-400mm in Lofoten islands, Norway.

Some complementary biking footage was shot in Jotunheimen with GX80 and 100-400mm. All footage except the timelapses were shot handheld without any rigs or gimbals. I used a DJI Mavic Pro for the drone shots. We spent 3 days in Lofoten for the primary shoot. I captured all of the biking shots from the trunk of our rental Prius, some of those close-ups I shot at 800mm equiv. in 4K 50p and autofocus on the GH5. 

I think this could be quite interesting for some of your readers, and it will serve a good cause if you share this. https://vimeo.com/276864585

The GH2 was launched back in October 2010. And guess what, today Panasonic released a new firmware update 1.2 for this camera! The firmware “Improves the compatibility of Panasonic battery” (don’t know exactly what that means).

I wonder if there is still a 43rumors reader who owns this camera :)

Peter: “I have made a tutorial video series about Olympus. Just to let know because it might be something your readers will like. https://goo.gl/9cPqo1. I also made a video about a catadioptric lens that I have. I tested it with a Olympus body. https://youtu.be/a2Hl0Pz07aQ“
