Unlike other entry-level studio flashes, the Elinchrom D-Lites are designed to work perfectly with digital cameras, are extremely lightweight with a sleek compact design and incorporate state-of the-art features commonly found on higher priced units. In addition, the D-Lites offer amateurs and enthusiasts something that other budget priced studio flashes can’t - control. Digitally controlled, shooters can rest assured that each time the flash is fired the D-Lites will produce the same amount of light, at the same duration and at the same color temperature.
