Vintage-inspired design and a distinct all-white finish
Simple dial correlates power levels with the scene you intend to shoot. For example, if you want enough light to cover two people with the flash's default ISO of 100, the dial lines up 1/4 power.
Built-in rechargeable battery offers up to 400 flashes on a full charge and comes with a USB-C to USB-A charging cable.
Control features include an Optical Mode that offers S1 and S2 settings. In S1 the flash will fire in response to another manual or TTL flash, while in S2 the Retro Flash will respond similarly, but ignore the initial flash.
The unit also features a sync hole for connecting an optional sync cable

The PERFECT Travel Flash!
By Michael
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-02-28
I love this flash because not only is it compatible with any camera, Nikon, Sony, etc, but it's literally small enough to fit in a pocket or purse. The power on it is unbelievable for such a tiny flash. It gives me great harsh, direct flash and crisp shadows perfectly.
It's A Little Baby Flash!

Got This Cute Thing On "flash" Sale (ha), And After The B&H Stork Delivery, Perfect Or Imperfect, It Didn't Matter: Straight Out Of The Box, I Was Instantly Smitten. "Awww...it's A Little Baby Flash!" I Said. I Took It To A Family Member And Said "Look." They Took The Flash And Began Imitating "Luxo," Pixar's Child-like Desk Lamp Bouncing Up And Down On Its Rubber Ball. Makes You Want To Knit The Flash A Pair Of Booties. But Don't Be Fooled: This Flash Is Not A Toy. It Packs A Punch, Even On Its Lowest Setting. Practical, Unlike Other Ultra-compact Flashes, This Flash Sits High Enough Off Of The Flash Shoe To Not Need A Flash Riser, At Least For My 1.8 Lenses. If I Were Asked To Suggest An Improvement, I Would Say That It Really Could Do With A Magnetic Front And A Proprietary, Magnetic Modifier -- Or, Better Yet -- Just Give It A Filter Ring So You Can Attach Things Like ND Or Mist Filters Which Everyone Probably Already Has, Which Would Do Just About The Same Thing On A Flash Like This. Other Than That, Keep In Mind That This Flash Only Points Forward, There Is No Bouncing Off Of The Ceiling. But I Knew That When I Got It. The Operation Is Simple And Fully Knob-controlled: You Do Not Need To Look At The Flash At All When Using It. The Battery Check Vs Power On Functon Can Be Confusing At First: But When At First You Don't Succeed, Read The Insructions. A Short Press Will Give You How Much Power Is Left In The Battery, As Indicated By The Number Of Times The Button Flashes Green. A Long Press Will Turn The Flash On, And The Button Will Remain A Steady Green. I Verified This Flash Works With All Of My Sony Cameras As Well As My Antique, Thirty-year Old Vivitar And Pentax Film Cameras, Which Is The Main Reason Why I Got It. Internal, USB-C Rechargable Battery Is So Convenient. Super Portable: Is The Same Length And Width Of Two 120 Rolls Of Film Placed Side By Side, With Just A Bit More Depth. But All Of Its Usability Aside, It Really Is As Cute As A Button.

The Godox Lux Elf Camera Flash is a very simple flash, with no information about the coverage of the flash available; it should cover at least a 35mm angle of view, and probably a 28mm angle of view, as well.

can you plug in a sync chord to the flash and your camera to use the flash off camera?
Asked by: Mark
For triggering the Godox Lux Elf Camera Flash off-camera, if you have an older camera with a PC sync port, you can use the Impact Sync Cord Male Mini (3.5mm) to Male PC (6') (B&H #IMMMPCM6). If you have a more modern digital camera that lacks a sync port, you can use the following trigger set to use this flash off-camera:
