Originally posted by audiobomber Did you ever have a chance to compare the original Sigma 530 to the Super? It's a lot cheaper and seems to have many of the same features. I'm just curious if the Super is considerably superior.
Check my article on this — see sig or other recent post. They're basically the same flash, but the Super adds
- wireless P-TTL
- high-speed sync
- 2nd-curtain sync
- better manual control (the ST can only do full or ¹⁄₁₆th)
- modeling light
- stroboscopic mode.
If I've missed anything, let me know — I'm pretty sure that's comprehensive.
If you just want a lot of power in P-TTL mode, the Sigma EF530 DG ST is hands-down the best value for the money. If other factors are more of a concern, the Super is still a good deal but the competition is very strong too — stronger, depending on the features in question.
