Hi there, I think if you read zuga.net and dpreview.com, you will see that for some it works well and for some it does not. So it is not just you two. I am pretty sure Glen here also experienced this.
I tried the fill flash yesterday with my Sigma Super. I think I am going to sell this flash because it bugs me to do outside high speed sync flash with this flash. I will practice a little more. I am not sure why e-ttl has this problem with D30. I use it with film very well all the time. Maybe our usage style is not the appropriate style for this flash. evrim ps. i also have d60. first thing i tried was the flash. same thing. pointing at the same uniform wall gives me two completely different results.... > Evrim, > > So, I'm not dreaming!
