Sigma EF-500 DG Super Pentax TTL

I just picked up one of these guys from eBay. Of course, no manual. Anyone know where I can download one? Sigma, of course, doesn't have one on it website (at least, I can't find it).

You might have a look at this. Brother Butkus is a wonderful resource for manuals for cameras, flashes, meters, etc. Do send him a donation so he can keep up the good work.

Thanks! A resource I COMPLETELY forgot about. I have donated to him in the past and will do so again.

I don't think your flash is programed for the K30. Sigma just updated my DF500 Super for my K-r for free (I paid to ship there and they paid return postage), I suggest you call their toll free number to confirm if an upgrade is available for the K30.

Once they confirmed they could upgrade the flash for the K-r, I filled in their online repair order, printed a copy, and sent it with the flash. If I remember correctly, it took less than 2 weeks.

Thanks very much, Tim. I will certainly do just that!
