This EF610 DG Super Flash for Sony DSLR Cameras is Sigma's most powerful shoe-mount flash yet, with a guide number of 200' (61m) at ISO 100 with the zoom head set to 105mm, and advanced features designed to work with the latest TTL auto exposure systems of Sony DSLRs.

The EF610's auto zoom function automatically sets the optimum illumination angle for the focal length in use, in a range from 24mm to 105mm. When the built-in Wide Panel is used, the flash can cover an angle of 17mm. The EF610 will tilt up 90°, to the left 180°, to the right 180° and down 7° for optimal control.

Other advanced features are a modeling flash function, multi-pulse flash, TTL wireless flash, FP (high speed) flash, rear-curtain Synchro flash and manual flash mode, which allows the photographer to set the flash power level by up to eight stops. The Auto Power-Off function automatically shuts off the LCD panel to help save battery power. When the flash gun is fully charged, a confirmation ready light will be emitted.

The EF610 is compatible with Sony AF DSLRs. A carrying case and flash stand (FS-11) are included with the flash.

        Comments about Sigma EF610 DG Super Flash for Sony DSLR Cameras:

        Powerful and simple to use.
        At first, the instructions looked daunting but just mount it on the camera and play. Great results and simplex.
        However, no battery orientation shown on the flash..need to observe the contact pattern in the battery pocket for orientation.
        I feel the instruction sheet could be better and offer more usage tips for a beginner.

          Being able to tilt down for closeup work was an unexpected bonus that I didn't catch while reading up before purchasing. Works well in all modes both on and off camera.

            Comments about Sigma EF610 DG Super Flash for Sony DSLR Cameras:

            It almost has too much power , what I like is the fact in auto the ttl is great, only had it for a few weeks.A few pictures had too much flash until I tried to swivel the flash head side to side. That did the trick. As soon as it was hooked on to the shoe, the af and the ttl responded in sink.
            It's not to heavy,it fits in my camera bag nicely.It works exceptionally well in total darkness.

            I purchased this for school play and of course for other events. Haven't had it very long. It really put the light where I needed it. As in the past when went to school functions my flash that is built on my camera, I would take pictures (but it was a waste of time),as subjects weren't visible.
