Sigma EF500 Super DG Flash

[Ronnoco]

Hi all:

Has anyone besides me worked with the Sigma EF500 Super DG Flash on the Minolta A200? Just purchased it recently and it seems to work great.

When I compared them the Sigma swivels, but also goes out to 60+ feet automatically with TTL and ADI and to 150 feet according to the specs in manual. Fractional to 1/64 allows you to use it off camera as a slave for close up macro work.

Does the 3600HS D have high speed sync. with the A200? The Sigma has high speed sync but I have not tried yet to confirm whether the sync feature works with the A200.

I use a Sigma EF500 Super DG Flash with my Minolta A1 and my old Dimage 7. It works
very nicely with both cameras. I use it sometimes with my Maxxum 7D, but here we have trouble.

The sigma flash should sync at any shutter speed with the A series cameras.

the 3600hsd does high speed sync but im not sure if it works on the a200 - i would imagine so, if sigma's can im sure the minolta should be able to....
