Elinchrom THREE OnLocation Wedding Kit Softbox
This set is designed for photographers who need to work quickly without losing control. The Elinchrom THREE delivers 261 Ws of power, up to 525 flashes at full power on a single battery charge, and a recharge time of 1.2 seconds at full power. This lets you keep shooting through portrait sessions, preparations, mingling with guests and creative evening shots without unnecessary interruptions.
When you're moving between churches, venues and outdoor locations, portability matters just as much as performance. The THREE weighs 1.6kg, has a built-in battery and can be charged via USB-C, even while in use thanks to Active Charging. This gives you more freedom during long days, when you don't always have the time or space for a traditional studio setup.
The Rotalux Deep Octa 70cm is an excellent choice for weddings and portraits, as it combines softness with clear direction. The deep octa design gives you more control over light spread and creates round, natural catchlights in the eyes. This is especially useful when you want to create flattering light for portraits, couple shots and detail photos, without losing precision.
The softbox comes with both an inner and an outer diffuser, so you can easily adjust the light quality to the situation. With both diffusers in place, you get softer, more even light. Removing the outer diffuser makes the light slightly harder, and removing both makes it more directional and harsher. This helps you switch between classic portraits, more dramatic evening shots and quick setups on location with the same light shaper.
The kit also includes tripods that adjust from 88 to 235cm, have a load capacity of around 5kg and come in a bag with a shoulder strap. The quick-lock system makes height adjustment fast and simple, which is especially handy when you need to switch between different environments during the same assignment.
The THREE also features a user-friendly touchscreen, built-in Bluetooth and support for control via the Elinchrom app and software. For photographers working at a fast pace, this means quicker adjustments, a smoother workflow and better control without unnecessarily interrupting the shoot. TTL and HSS are supported in combination with the Transmitter Pro, giving you more flexibility in changing light conditions and letting you sync up to 1/8000s when you want to balance flash with daylight or freeze motion.
According to the product page, the THREE kit includes the flash unit itself, the OCF Diffusion Dome, the OCF Adapter, the 100W USB-C wall charger and a carrying bag. The softbox and tripod complete the set for portraits and weddings on location.
Who is it for?
This kit is suitable for wedding photographers, portrait photographers and content creators who want a portable flash system with clear light shaping and a set that's easy to transport. This is especially relevant for people who often work outside the studio but still need reliable power, fast recharge times and the ability to shape light more precisely than with a compact on-camera solution.
