Is the Sigma EF-530 DG ST compatible with Pentax k-30 DSLR?

Sorry I don't know about compatibility with Pentax. I have had other Sigma products which have been reliable.

It works perfectly with the *ist DL. I have the same Pentax camera and just got this lens. It has great performance and has produced some great shots for me. Here's more info from Sigma's site... http://www.sigmaphoto.com/lenses/lenses_all_details.asp?id=3303&navigator;=3

With the proper adapter there should be no problem but I have no experience adapting Pentax k lenses to Canon bodies.

Yes it will. The Pentax K-30 has the same K mount as all the other Pentax DSLRs.

I believe the Pentax K-r has a standard hot shoe, so it should work. However, it is a manual flash so you will need to have a clue on how to balance the natural light with the flash and thus correctly set the shutter speed along with the aperture.

I own the lens it works perfectly on my pentax k30 and should work perfectly on the pentax k50. I am not sure what compatibility check would claim it does not work on the k50. The lens at f1.8 is fast, it is inexpensive, it is sharp and is a my favorite lens for portraits.

Yes, this lens is fully compatible with any Pentax K-mount camera (including film models) - especially the latest models such as a K-3. I have a K-5 and K-5SII and it works perfectly. Even though it's a 100 mm, it's my go-to lens for most every application (except for panoramic vistas - that's when I use my HD 15mm).

Yes, no problem. Even all your MF lenses will work fine on the k30 too, though they will stay MF (there's a couple settings you have to change in the menu and on the mode dial switch). In fact, with an adapter, m42 lenses work great on the k30! I have a few of those and they are amazing to use especially with the feature called focus peaking that shows you what areas are in focus.

I went from a Canon DSLR to the Pentax K-30. So far I am very happy with this camera. In the "Auto" mode it is similar to using a point and shot camera. But the camera has many more advanced features that you can use. Also, Pentax K-30 allows you to use lens from older SLR Pentax camera. I am using 2 lens that were from a film type SLR!

No. The Pentax K1000 is not a DSLR camera. The D stands for digital camera and the pentax is a film camera. You're better off looking into the Canon Rebel eos. It's DSLR and good for beginners.

I read some comments on dpreview.com of a guy who tested the Pentax k-7 with two different class 4 SDHC cards and one worked well (SanDisk Ultra II) while the other didn't (PNY). You can see the site below for more details. I would think a class 6 would work fine. http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1036&message;=33814313

Absolutely! It will work with any Pentax K-Mount. It is unfortunate that Amazon has not corrected the misinformation. I am currently using on the K-01 with spectacular results.

As far as I know Nikon and Pentax have different designs in terms of their lenses. The Sigma in question is for Nikon DSLR.

Yes. It works on the K30, followed by the K50, followed by the K500, which is what I have it on. That is the direct lineage of these entry level cameras from Pentax in the last few years.

Yes you can use it on all Pentax DSLRs including the upcoming Pentax K-3. Have fun.

It works perfectly with both of Pentax DSLR cameras. Sigma does have the same flash for Nikons and should work well. Not sure aboutbremote use.
