Good Flash

This flash is great with just two flaws. One is that the flash has just a little wobble when it is mounted to the camera. the other is that you need to make sure that every time you turn on your camera you go to the camera menu and select ADI flash. This will help with concistancy as I noticed that sometimes the exposure would be off till I manually selected ADI. Other than that for the price you will be thrilled. The built in diffuser works perfect for fill flash and the bounce flash make natural looking photos taken indoors. buy it if you can!Read full review...

Good Value, but no manual controls

This is the first Flash I ever bough, so I didn't know much about flashes before. After getting it to my hands only I realized it lacked manual power control. It has only two levels, low and high. Apart from that this comes with TTL support which might be handy at times, but now I'm realizing that having more power level options would be desirable.

To speak of this flash, it performs well and does a fairly good job. Also it lasts for good number of fires with one set of batteries. With TTL codes, I was able to use this flash and get some good results out of it. But without TTL, it would be little tricky to control the light.

So if I were to buy a flash again or given a chance to choose again, I would for for the "Sigma EF-530 DG Super Flash" which I feel is much better and worth the price difference.

Sigma EF-530

The flash really works great on my Nikon D70 DSLR Camera. I have put the unit through the paces with both a Nikon DX zoom lens and a Tamaron Zoon Lens. The flash adjusted flawlessly to capture even the lowest light situations, allowing the camera to focus using the infrared assist.
For the money, there is no other choice for a flash. It rivals the Nikon Speedlight SB800 and costs a lot less.
If you are looking for a flash that will integrate flawlessly with your Nikon DSLR camera, you can't go wrong with this unit.

Sigma is a quality brand!

Quality product, I do not regret, because I knew the brand. Meets expectations of any professional or amateur photographer.

Not worth the money

Not ignited by remote control. Often the buggy quickly drain the battery, loud and long recharge. But a powerful lamp. I would recommend YN-467, it is cheaper and no worse.

Very good flash, thought I bought wrong one.

Liked the quality, rotates easily, flashes quickly, and recharges just as fast. Unfortunately I bought it for Nikon instead of Sony. Stupid me. Great Flash

Sigma EF-530 DG ST TTL Flash for Sony

A good, reliable, solid performer. It is not the best or most able, however it does the job for an amateur photographer. A poor man's flash.
