Your cart is empty. The newest addition to the Sigma line of flashes is the most powerful one yet, now offering a Guide number of 61 which translates into 61/m (200/ft) and designed to work with the latest TTL auto exposure systems of all the most popular digital and film SLR cameras. Advanced features and high performance allows photographers to express their intentions accurately. The EF-610 DG SUPER's auto zoom function automatically sets the optimum illumination angle in accordance with the lens' focal length in a range from 24mm to 105mm. When the built-in Wide Panel is used, the flash can cover an angle of 17mm. For bounce flash the flashgun head can be tilted up by 90 degrees, to the left by 180 degrees, or to the right by 90 degrees. It can also be tilted down by 7 degrees allowing ease of use for close-up photography. Among the advanced features of this flash is a modeling flash function, multi-pulse flash, TTL wireless flash, FP (high speed) flash, rear-curtain Synchro flash and manual flash mode, which allows the photographer to set the flash power level by up to eight stops. The Auto Power-Off function automatically shuts off the LCD panel to help save battery power. When the flash gun is fully charged, a confirmation "ready' light will be emitted.

DPメリル用に純正のフラッシュを探していて偶々、アマゾンに格安の中古が出ていたので、即購入しました。性能・機能とも文句なし。

Questo è il mio primo e unico, per ora, flash; pur non avendone mai usati, dopo circa mezz'ora ero in grado di settare la maggior parte dei controlli. Ha un'alta potenza che permette di illuminare anche in circostanze di luce terribili: funziona con 4 pile stilo, io di norma uso batterie ricaricabili e consuma relativamente poco. Viene fornito con un elegante astuccio nero di tessuto, assieme ad un mini piedistallo per usarlo separatamente dal corpo macchina. Molto conveniente il prezzo, soprattutto se paragonato all'analogo modello di marca Canon.

If you're looking at this flash, you're probably looking for a cheaper alternative (or simply another) flash to the equivalent brand name model. I purchased this over the Canon Speedlite 320EX for my 6D, to which I was comparing based on price. I don't have the Speedlite, so I can't offer a donuts-to-donuts comparison, but unless you are adamant on same-brand compatibility, I believe it works well enough.The flash is strong enough for its price point and has numerous features and settings, including wireless control. Here's where it gets iffy: it's got quite a few functions but the manual is a bit convoluted. There is a bit of a learning curve, so for beginners, the best option is to set it to the 'auto' setting where the device will try to match the flash strength with your lens's focal length. It's not perfect but in a situation where the rest of your body is too busy trying to adjust to a moving object, it helps to have one less thing to manage.EDIT 3/14/2014:In a regular-life situation (i.e., you are physically moving around), using anything but the automatic setting is difficult. Several button presses are required to manually adjust settings and there is a bit too much functionality when you just need it to work in the heat of the moment. However, leaving it in automatic DID turn out to be great. I took this to an outdoor concert in Seoul in below-freezing weather and it performed admirably. Even from about 10m/30ft away in dim lighting, the flash produced noticeably better results than without the flash. My recommendation is just to leave this flash on auto and manually adjust your DSLR/lens.

I was expecting more. The build seemed questionable. I've bought a long line of non-Canon flashes, and they never seem to last. When I first held this, I felt as if history was about to repeat itself. It has great functions, but I just wasn't happy with the build. The 430ex II dipped in price, and for not much more, I was able to get one of those instead. Talk about solid. That feels like it can pull off a lifetime of duty. I guess I'm tired of paying for a new flash every few years.

First things first, I am a professional photographer (ALL of my income comes from my photography). I rely on my tools to function when I call on them to. I bought this as a supplement to my 430 EXII's, and intended on using this as an on-camera master to trigger the 430's as remote slaves. For this, the flash has worked perfectly. If you know how these systems function (i.e. This is line-of-sight, not a radio-trigger), and set up your lighting accordingly, the flash functions flawlessly. I've used this on 2 shoots in the first 3 days of having it and it's made my life easier and my lighting set-ups more versatile. I'm looking to get a speed ring to test this mounted onto a light stand and shoot with a soft box or beauty dish, just to compare it to set-ups more similar to Alien Bees. This has a portability advantage vs. AB's though, seeing as it's lightweight, easy to store and more importantly, battery powered.As to the battery aspect, this recharges far quicker than I expected it to. In fact, i swapped out the expensive Lithium Extreme batteries (that I bought for $2 a battery) and started using cheap Costco AA's on the second day because this recharged so quickly. I'm not an electrical engineer, but I didn't notice much difference in performance between the two and I was shooting for an hour and a half at 1/4-1/2 power the entire time.In conclusion, if I had to make a complaint, it would be that the + and - buttons feel reversed to me (the '+' is on the left, '-' on the right; it's counter-intuitive) and the zoom button is a progressive step (24-28-35-50-70-85-105) and not a single 'push and select' that then takes + & - inputs. So my two complaints are based on the fact that the Canon menu system is superior, but the flash head itself has taken every task I've asked it to and run with it.I'm considering selling my 430's and picking up a few more of these, simply because of the power, portability, versatility and price of these units. If you're looking for a less-expensive (I won't say "cheap", it's still $250) alternative to the like-branded flashes, I'd highly recommend this unit in a heartbeat.

I bought this flash a couple months ago, and I am really glad I chose ths one. I'm not a professional, and I have a lot to learn about flash photography, but I have found it to do a very nice job for most of my needs. I love how easy it is to program the flash power (1/1 to 1/64), and the guide number is impressive (61m/200ft.), althought I think that is a bit higher than what you actually get (I've heard the same about all the other flashes out there as well). I also am impressed with the advanced features on this flash, such as wireless TTL, high-speed flash, and rear curtain sync. You can also use manual flash mode if you want to enter your aperture and have it tell you what your distance from the object should be. My only beef with the flash is that the manual mode (and the user's manual) are a bit tricky to figure out, and the LED display letters are pretty small, although it does illuminate, which is nice. Overall, I really love this flash!
