With the EL-Skyport Transmitter Pro for FUJIFILM, Elinchrom introduced a game-changing wireless solution that's compatible with three generations of transceivers and flash heads and offers Hi-Sync flash sync speeds up to 1/8000 sec.

The 20-channel transmitter is immediately recognizable by its large LCD screen that displays every light in your setup. The Skyport Pro will control the modeling light and flash intensity of BRX, D-Lite RX, ELC Pro HD, and ELB flash heads as well as the EL-Skyport Transceiver RX for the Style RX, Digital RX, and Ranger RX systems. Operating on the 2.4 GHz frequency, it has an enhanced wireless range too, triggering and controlling your flash heads at a distance of 196' indoors and 656' outdoors.

One of the transceivers most exciting features is Hi-Sync technology that lets you use shutter speeds up to 1/8000 of a second, far shorter than your camera's standard sync speed. Whether you use it to overpower the sun, freeze action, darken backgrounds, or select wider apertures, Hi-Sync opens up a new realm of exposure possibilities. You can even fine tune the transmitter's trigger signal with ODS (Over Drive Sync) for optimal exposures at high shutter speeds.

The EL-Skyport Transmitter Pro runs on AA batteries and has a future-proofing mini-USB connection for firmware updates.

20 Channels in Normal Mode    20 Channels in Speed Mode    4 Groups    Hi-Sync Mode Up to 1/8000 sec    LCD Display Screen    Up to 656' Triggering Range    Compatible with 3 Flash Unit Generations

The large LCD display of the Skyport Pro features two-way control via a Visual Feedback Interface that lets you see the exact power of every light in your setup right on the transmitter. Users control each light's power level and modeling lamp setting directly from the Skyport transmitter, which instantly shows the updated power settings.

Go beyond the X-Sync of your camera. Photographers can simply switch to Hi-Sync mode and access sync speeds up to 1/8000s to freeze motion, overpower the sun, darken backgrounds, or use a wider aperture. The new ODS (Over Drive Sync) enables users to fine tune the Skyport plus HS transmitter's trigger signal to optimize exposure at high shutter speeds while gaining up to two more f-stops of light.

The Skyport Pro has 20 frequency channels that can be used for either Normal or Speed mode, and a wireless range of 656' outdoors and 196' indoors. It also features a mini-USB socket for firmware updates. Users can instantly distinguish what sync mode they are in since the backlit display glows green for normal sync mode, and red for speed sync mode.

The Skyport Pro represents a seamless extension of the EL-Skyport family since it is also compatible with the three previous generations of flash units including the EL- Skyport Transceiver RX module for Style RX, Digital RX, and Ranger RX systems and the integrated EL-Skyport modules for the BRX, D-Lite RX, ELC Pro HD, and ELB series. The Skyport Pro adds synchronization capability and two-way control functionality to all Elinchrom lights with EL-Skyport capability.

The LCD display shows each strobe unit's power settings and allows for full control of all strobes right on top of the Skyport Pro. The individual strobes show up automatically on the screen, and you can adjust the settings on top of the transceiver or on the strobe itself. You can see and control up to 10 different EL strobes with the HS transmitter.

Q: 4. In addition to controlling Elinchrom strobes, will the EL-Skyport Plus have the ability to also control output of Nikon speedlights? Since the merger with Phottix, will there be TTL anytime soon with Elinchrom's ELB or any other lights? Will the new ELB packages now include the EL-Skyport Transmitter Plus and do away with the old Skyports?

A: No, this will not control your Nikon flashes. Only the Elinchrom lights.

Q: 5. Hello. the Elinchrom EL-Skyport Transmitter Plus HS allows to regulate the firepower from the same control at the head ELC PRO HD 500? because Skyport screen option of selecting only the HD 1000 PRO ELC you look.I appreciate the response.

A: The transmitter does have control of power and does display the ELC500. You can see that in the manual on page 11. The link for the manual is http://bit.ly/1Nc8TMV.

Q: 6. The D-lite 400RX4 is listed as fully compatible with the remote. What sync speed can I expect with a Canon 5D MKIII?

A: Elinchrom does not list a set of top sync speeds for individual cameras and/or strobe heads. They simply state that the Canon 5D Mark III and Elinchrom D-Lite RX4 would both be compatible with the Elinchrom EL-Skyport Transmitter Plus HS for Canon. While they state that you can get up to 1/8000 sec, a specific top maximum number is not given with each camera/flash combination. As such, I would have to recommend to simply test the setup with your equipment, then if needed or you experience banding at the shutter speed you wish to use, then I'd recommend to use their ODS (Over Drive Sync) Setup to fine-tune the Skyport HS's trigger to optimize exposure at high shutter speeds while gaining more light. The ODS value will vary depending on the camera and the flash unit which is used and must be adjusted manually.

Q: 7. Can I use the Elinchrom El-Skyport Transmitter Plus HS with a Elinchrom El-Skyport Receiver Plus and achieve HS from the flash units connected to the receiver?

A: I tried it with my Canon 60D and 5D MIII with Canon 430Ex Speedlight. I am able to shoot with higher shutter speed wit 60D. But have some issues in syn wit 5D. I am trying to figure out what is going wrong.

Q: 8. Does every shutter speed/power setting need ODS adjustment for Hi-Sync to work with Sony a7R II above the sync speed, or is it automatic and ODS is just to fine tune and maybe gain a little extra power? (Assuming pairing with an ELB400 and HS head)

A: i'm using the elb400 with an HS head plugged into the A socket. i have been able to use all shutter speeds on the a7r2 without using ods at all. automatic out of the box for me. all power settings work for me, just make sure you have the head plugged in to the A socket

Q: 9. Will an old Elinchrom Quadra A Head work with a Nikon D850 in TTL mode with this unit? In other words, can I set my Nikon to, say, 1/250 and f11, use a single Quadra head automatically, and have the exposure come out right? I already have the original skyport unit, and if I put it in the hot shoe of the D850, it fires my Quadra just fine , but only in manual. Im trying to decide if this unit will get a capability I dont already have.

A: No; these units do not have TTL flash metering.

Q: 10. I have a elinchrom 600rx units and the first generation quadra kit with the A heads. Will the Plus HS allow me to use it to do high speed sync on both these units?

A: From Elinchrom website:Elinchrom produced three differentEL-Skyport receiver versions over the past years.Every new generation did offer additional new features and improved performance, but still it is possible to use the Hi-Sync feature with earlier versions of the EL-Skyport receivers either built-in Elinchrom flash units or as a plug-in module.Please find in the compatibility chart your version and the available features, when used with the latest EL-Skyport Transmitter Plus HS. 1st GenerationEL-Skyport Transceiver RX plug-in module for Style RX, Digital RX and Ranger RX.The units with the transceiver RX can be detected but their power levels will not be displayed.
