I had my Sigma EF 500 DG Super upgraded for the K100, because I figured that would make it compatible with the K10D. When my K10D arrived, I mounted the Sigma and fired away. It died. Completely. No flash. I'm going to send it to them, but I'm not hopeful. I needed a flash, so I bought the Pentax equivelant, the 540 something. It works well, but goes through batteries in a hurry. I thought I read that Pentax was going to release a remote battery hookup for this flash. Hope so. In the meantime, I also use my AF400T with my remote Battery II. On autoflash it works just fine.
