Canon EL-1 Bounce Adapter

The primary purpose is to soften and diffuse the light output from the Canon Speedlite EL-1 flashgun, creating a more pleasing and natural illumination by reducing harsh shadows and specular highlights.

The SBA-EL Bounce Adapter is exclusively compatible with the Canon Speedlite EL-1.

Yes, the SBA-EL is designed to work with Canon's SCF-EL Colour Filters, allowing you to modify the color temperature of your flash.

It features a dedicated snap-on design that securely attaches to the front of the Speedlite EL-1.

Like most diffusers, it will cause a slight reduction in light output due to light scattering, but this is generally manageable by adjusting the flash power or ISO.

Wipe the adapter with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using solvents or abrasive cleaners.

Ensure you are using it with the compatible Canon Speedlite EL-1. Check for any debris on the flash head or the adapter's attachment points and clean if necessary. Realign and gently push until it clicks.

Verify that the adapter is fully seated on the flash. Ensure you are bouncing the flash off a suitable surface (e.g., white or neutral-colored ceiling/wall). Direct flash, even with the adapter, will still be harsher than bounced flash.
