I have 2 of these in my studio (plus 3 Style's) and until I just saw this video, I had no idea how versatile it was. Thanks Chris. Stephen Power (We chatted when I did a PP magazine article on Event Photography a while back)

July 2022. These older Elinchrom strobes are brilliant, If you are an armature (like me) there are fantastic bargains to be had. I'm using the even older Style 300S and 600S models. Super easy to use analogue sliders for power and all the high quality features you need (except for built-in radio control and HSS.) I love 'em.

great video! i am using a sony A7II AND A6000, i wanted to know if its possible to used a PHOTTIX ODIN transmitter and receiver to synchronize with the elinchrom bx 500 ri and use only the ODIN transmitter to control the setting of the strobe without touching the strobe for setting ?? help...

Anyone know what the difference is between BRX500 and BRX500Ri?

[@Allandcosta]

cant Hear ANYTHING :-(

[@76honda76]

You would think they know a litle about video/audio stuff right ?

[@TheFlashCentre]

Yeah sorry, a new version with some sound processing is on it's way. Alex TFC

Interesting, why does the modeling bulb on my BX500Ri look like any bulb but his is longish looking?

[@proteus1]

Ho do you configure my nikon to fire the lights. Do i have to have my lights on any setting or can i use any depth of field and shutter combination

Hello I need help on the elinchrom 500BX Ri unit one of the power adjustable nobs does not work so i cant increase my power up or set it up in groups etc. what should i do thanks

[@PaulRichard1955]

Thanks for that. Explained a lot of features which I didn't realise were there. Definitely going to get a set now!

[@AdurianJ]

Those can be different depending on if it's in Europe US or Canada

[@filmic1]

Thanks for the guide through! Audio is poor, but the explanation is clear. Thank you. Question, RE: Firmware. Can the firmware be updated on my BX 500 Ri in the same manner as I can on my RX4s?

[@TheFlashCentre]

Hi, the BXRi doesn't have upgradable firmware I'm afraid. It's successor, the BRX, does.

[@filmic1]

@@TheFlashCentre Thanks! Appreciate.

[@RobertoFa]

Thanks for the vid, informative!

[@tonyaleman6938]

This is so much easier to understand than the included instructions. Elinchrom should provide a link to this video with the units themselves. There are more features available in this unit than I realized. One thing...you really need to improve the sound quality.

[@TamilselvanC]

In spanis please.

[@stanleysjogren3544]
