Overview

The Elinchrom 26570 Rotalux Speedring is the essential link between your Elinchrom flash heads and the acclaimed Rotalux softbox system. Rather than requiring a different mounting adapter for each softbox size, this single speedring accommodates all 11 Rotalux softbox shapes and dimensions — from compact rectangular panels to large octa softboxes. Its color-coded rod slots simplify what can otherwise be a fiddly assembly process, letting you get your lighting modifier set up and shooting faster.

Durability is a key design priority. Elinchrom engineered this speedring to handle the repeated stress of daily assembly and disassembly, even with their largest octagonal Rotalux models. The backward compatibility is equally impressive, supporting every Elinchrom flash head manufactured since 1974. For photographers already invested in the Elinchrom ecosystem, the 26570 is a necessary accessory that unlocks the full range of Rotalux light-shaping options without needing multiple proprietary adapters.
