Elinchrom Quadra HS Flash Head - Optimised for Hi-Sync Photography

What is Hi-Sync (HS)?

Hi-Sync is the exclusive Elinchrom technology that goes beyond the X-Sync of your Nikon, Canon, Sony, Olympus or Panasonic camera. With this technology you can now sync your DSLR camera with the Elinchrom Quadra HS Flash Head up to 1/8000s shutter speed, when coupled with a Hi-Sync compatible radio trigger. For best results use the Elinchrom Skyport Plus HS Transmitter. With this technology you will be able to freeze action, darken backgrounds and overpower the sun at small apertures, and blur backgrounds at wide apertures without overexposure.

This lightweight head is for use with the Elinchrom ELB 400 & Quadra lighting systems. Built to be as portable as possible and weighing only 0.28 kg, this head not only packs well but it is mountable in situations that would be impossible for a full-sized flash head.

The Quadra HS head integrates a daylight-balanced LED modelling lamp that produces the equivalent of 50W of light output. The Quadra HS Head can be used with all Quadra fit accessories, as well as all standard Elinchrom fit accessories. Use with all standard Elinchrom fit accessories requires the Elinchrom Quadra to EL Mount Adapter Mk II (sold separately).

This new flash head can be purchased either as a single item or in a set with the widely acclaimed ELB 400.

Sophia X. ★★★★★

The Hi-Sync mode works flawlessly for freezing action in bright sunlight, which is exactly what I needed for outdoor sports shots. I’ve been able to shoot at a much faster shutter speed than my usual strobes allow, and the battery life on the Quadra pack lasts through a full evening session.

Ella Y. ★★★★★

I was a bit worried about the power setting adjustments, but the dials are actually quite intuitive even for a studio head. Paired with a high-speed camera, this flash head is a beast for freezing motion in bright conditions.

Samuel B. ★★★★★

The Hi-Sync really delivers—I'm freezing action at 1/8000 with no banding issues at all. My flash duration feels shorter than my old setup, which is perfect for outdoor portraits.
