I promised somebody i might take footage of their wedding and knew I had to induce one thing higher. i used to be much eyeing the new Sigma EF-530 DG Super. sadly there wasn't a lot of definite info on the market, thus I found it arduous to create an informed call. within the finish i made a decision to pay the additional cash, recognize that this flash are going to be compatible with future cameras while not hassles and can reliably management my 420EX.
