Hi Guys
I have an old Sigma EF-500 DG ST flash which I have used earlier in PTTL-mode where it worked fine (overexposed a bit, but whatever).
I have not used it for some time, and now I simply cannot get it to work. It is registered by the camera and the flash fires, but the images are very dark. It simple seems to fire too soon for the shutter to open. It happens both in P-TTL and manual mode. I am sure this is the case, as I take a picture within 30cm that is almost pitch black even when the flash fires, so it is not just underexposion.
I have not changed anything in my setup, but using AAA-batteries since last time I used it.
It is probably me who is doing something wrong, so I hope you guys can guide me in the correct direction
