Sigma EF-610 DG ST
$165.00
Released September, 2010
The Pros:Installation on the camera is very simple, clicks right in, no special setup needed. Generally interfaces automatically with most cameras that will accept it. Compatible with a wide variety of cameras.
The Cons:Doesn't allow for manual adjustment of the focal length. Some decrease in the brightness is noticeable when taking shots in rapid succession - needs to be accounted for in post-processing. Smells funny.
The Sigma EF-610 DG ST is an electronic camera flash featuring a Guide Number of 61. Designed to work with the latest TTL systems on DSLR and SLR cameras from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax/Samsung, and Sigma, the EF-610 DG ST camera flash covers focal lengths from 24mm to 105mm, though it also covers 17mm when the built-in Wide Panel is used.

Note, however, that the Sigma flash doesn’t have an auto mode (it doesn’t have its own light sensor), which means one must use full manual flash. Plus it doesn’t have Pentax Wireless built in, and it doesn’t allow for the fine-tuning of power output and other features. It can bounce and swivel, and it obviously supports P-TTL.
