Elinchrom THREE Overview

Capture Extraordinary Shots
Elevate your image creation with Elinchrom's versatile THREE Off Camera Flash Kit – packing a portable flash unit with straightforward features and reliable performance. The THREE runs on an internal battery, allowing you to fire up to 525 times at full power and get up to 11,250 flashes at minimum power. It offers 261Ws of capacity, TTL/HSS support, USB-C charging, and seamless control. Settings are indicated on the rear touchscreen and adjustable via buttons that are intuitive and quick to use. This kit includes a single flash unit, a diffusion dome, an EL-Profoto adapter, and a 65W USB-C wall charger. A convenient case is also provided for storage and transportation.
Compact, Versatile Off Camera Flash
The THREE was developed to help you illuminate and bring life to your images. It supports manual, TTL, and high-speed sync modes, offering flash durations from 1/255 to 1/1550 second. Besides these characteristics, Elinchrom manages to keep recycling times at 0.08-1.2 seconds to match your creative speed.
Uninterrupted Workflow
At only 3.6 lb, the compact and portable 261Ws THREE runs on an internal battery that offers 525 full-power flashes on a 100-minute charge. Plus, you have the ability to charge it from any USB-C source to continue shooting regardless of the battery's power level.
Always Navigating Swiftly
  • With a touchscreen interface and an easy-to-use menu, Elinchrom has streamlined the process of adjusting the THREE's settings to ensure you never miss a chance to capture a moment.
  • With the THREE's built-in Bridge, you can easily control all the features of your THREE and other Elinchrom units directly from your smartphone or computer. The Studio app/software allows for seamless control and faster setups. Yet another feature is the built-in 20-channel receiver, that with purchase of a Skyport transmitter, can make adjustments at distances up to 656' (outdoors).
Shape Your Story
Shaping light is at the heart of every great photo you create with the Elinchrom THREE. That's why it utilizes an unconcealed flash tube for optimal light spread, ensuring you experience the light quality Elinchrom is known for.
  • The flash's LED modeling lamp is a 20W LED that can be set to on/off, free, proportional, or VFC.
  • The lamp features CCT presets from 2700 to 6500K.
  • The light outputs up to 3000 lumens with a CRI of 95.

 

With Your Choice of Light Modifiers
The THREE was designed to allow you to use your existing Elinchrom light shapers with it. The unit is also compatible with most Profoto bayonet modifiers.
EL-Profoto Adapter
  • Utilizing an Elinchrom OCF modifier mount, the THREE also includes an EL-Profoto adapter, greatly expanding your selection of separately available light shaping tools.
  • Choose between Elinchrom OCF, Profoto bayonet, and traditional Elinchrom light shapers.
  • The flash's tilt bracket also comes with a properly placed hole for an umbrella shaft.

Elinchrom THREE Reviews

Almost love

By Dennis
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2025-06-01

I'm just starting to put these through the paces. The lone drawback so far are the mounts. They are very disappointing and with the round screw tension knob. They barely support the weight of the strobe itself. Honestly not sure why Elinchrom opted to use them. However I discovered that Kupo makes a mount that is designed for the Profoto B10 that works perfectly in the THREE. It will allow you to attach it to a stand via a grip head. Much, much better solution when using any modifier with a bit of weight to it.

Elinchrom Three strobe

This is my 2nd Elichrom Three strobe and I have 2 Elinchrom Ones. These newer strobes have all been pretty good. The model Three units have a handle for tightening the angle of the head and a stronger, more secure adapter connection for adding Elinchrom modifiers. Sadly, the model One units don’t have those two better additions, but they do work well. And with all four units the Elinchrom app works well for making adjustments to the lights, for strobe out put power, modeling lamp intensity and color temperature. The units seem well built and so far I haven’t had any problems.

How do I attach my elinchrom modifiers to the Elinchrom Three?
Asked by: Lisa
The elinchrom three does come with the Elinchrom El-Profoto adapter which will let you use elinchrom light modifiers or you can just put Profoto speedring and use any bodies boxes.

Seems like you can't swipe out batteries... what is the point of a portable light that runs out and you can't keep on using?
Asked by: Carlos
I’ve been using the Elinchrom One (along with my ELB500) and have never been at a loss because I couldn’t swap batteries. The One (and I am sure it’s the same with the Three) charges quite rapidly. Most of my work is on location but if needed, I charge the unit at lunchtime.
