Digital camera reviews of Sigma EF-530 DG ST Electronic Flash for Canon DSLR

Digital camera Review: Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars

The title should say it all. I was quite disappointed. When I received my package a few weeks ago, I couldn't wait to try the Sigma flash out. Within minutes I knew the quality just wasnt' there. First I thought my setting were off, rechecked my Canon Rebel & they were right on target. All the shot I had taken were so under developed I knew this flash were going back. I was totally dissatisfied with this flash. I ended up spending a little more money & getting the Canon 580 which I should of purchased from the get go.
