Tfhe 500FTZ doesn't support the *istD (S) special functions. The Sigma
Super does. I found that the Sigma felt somewhat cheap in terms of
build quality, but it certainly works well. I was just out with mine,
shooting high speed synch with a Kirk magnifier on the front and a 400
mm lens. Lots of fun.

Quite a lot IMO.

Visiting Singapore a few weeks ago, I thought it a nice opperunity to
buy a
TTL flash for my *istDS.
Some internet reviews made me think the Sigma EF500 DG super could be
a nice
possibility.
In the shops, they had Sigma for Cannon, Sigma for Nikon, but Pentax:
no
sir, Pentax?.........
I held the Nikon version in my hands.
I was shocked by the poor look and feel.
I cannot understand, this is not a cheap flash, for 10 dollar more it
could
have looked nice and solid.
Like this it would embarrash my *istDS.
How much more does the Sigma offer to take this in stead of the Pentax
500FTZ (taking aside the price difference)
Comments?
