Elinchrom Style 600S - Good?

[Michael O]

I found a couple of Elinchrom Style 600S mono blocks, but I don't know anything about them. Anyone has any info on them? The price is quite attractive but ....

Also anyone knows if they would work with the AB Vagabond II?

Quite good. They are pre-RX and have analog controls. They can't be controlled with Skyports but outside of that they are great strobes. Yes, they will definitely work with the Vagabond II.

The sync voltage is 12V, would that be a problem? I use PW right now.

Not a problem at all. Just plug your PW's in and sync away! I had some EL500's that are older than the S you're looking at and they worked fine with PW's.

Thanks Robert, that sounds good. BTW, I got the 70-300mm VR, and love it.

Good deal Mike. It's a very nice lens.

Any ideas what the 600s and 300s go for, I mean what is a good price?
The price went up on the one I found, and was wondering if it is too much.

Last I checked on those strobes, they were going for about $450 or $500 for an S 600 and around $350 to $400 for an S 300.

Thanks Robert, that's about what I figured, about 50% of the original price.
