Comments about SIGMA ELECTRONIC FLASH EF-530 DG ST FOR SONY:
The Sigma EF 530 came nicely packaged a carry bag. My first impression was the build quality felt a bit cheap. Also when I installed it on the A100 the connection with the shoe seemed to be slightly loose.
Using the flash was a breeze. the results are consistent and so far very good.
I did notice that in sports setting the flash only puts out 2 flashes then has to recharge. I was hoping for 3 flash bursts. But at this price it's a good all around flash.
