Best for

A capable third-party Nikon flash - i-TTL integration, high guide number, full articulation, typically at a more affordable used price than the equivalent SB-600 or SB-700. Sigma's EF flash line has been a popular third-party alternative for many years.

Frequently asked questions

How does this compare to Nikon's own flashes?

Similar feature set to the Nikon SB-700. Sigma is usually more affordable used. Build quality is reasonable but typically slightly below first-party; firmware integration with newer Nikon bodies may need a Sigma firmware update (check compatibility with specific body).

  • A proper little treasure trove

    3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
