Is a good flash unit. I´ve owned 3 and is the best one i had for that low price. The manual is other story. I´m sure is the worst manual a product of this type can have.

Comments about Sigma Sigma EF-500 Super DG Shoe Mount Flash for Minolta Maxxum, Guide Number of 165 feet / 50 meter at 105mm Setting.:

Limited control of flash in TTL mode with Maxxum 7D, ie, overexposures. Have to back off flash compensation two stops to come close. Seems to work fine with Dimage A2. Because of limited US support with both Konica/Minolta and Sigma, I could never determine the issue with the Maxxum 7D. Therefore, disappointed because I had such high expectations.
