I used it with my Nikon cam and a macro lens i can't 100% tell you if it would work on your cam although it should.. There are some adapter rings you might need

The sigma system is tailored for the Canon dslr range . I have worked my sigma 104 hard for several years without a single hic-up. I would expect you would get the same satisfied result.

It should work fine with that setup. It comes with adapter rings for 55mm and 62mm filter mounts. If your lens has a different filter size then you'll also need the correct Sigma adapter for that size.

Hello.I tested the flash on my two cameras (Canon 50D and Fujifilm S9100) without any problem. and how that Flash is completely manual only uses the central terminal of the camera to shoot, I do not have problems to use with it.Greetings.

no it will not fit. you will need Canon Macrolite Adapter 67 ring to use this flash with the 100mm lens Canon Macrolite Adapter 67

it tested well with a Nikon D70 built in commander mode which is exciting for budget shooters since a D70 can be had for ~$100 used... make sure to choose channel 3, group A on flash...smh at that hassle but it's what Nikon decided. I will update when I see it work with a friend's Canon 60D... great flash unit!

The flash is designed to fit 58mm and smaller filter size. If you try and adapt to 62mm or 67mm, you are going to get vignetting (fall-off of light causing darkening of the image at the edges and/or corners.) You need either a larger ring flash for those larger lenses, or to use another flash setup-- a ring light, most probably, for Macro, or a standard flash or 2 or 3 if you are doing portraiture. It seems odd that you would have three different macro lenses, so I'm guessing that you wanting to use the light for both macro (probably your 52mm filter size lens) and for portraiture with your other lenses. Might be best to go with separate flash set-ups for macro and portraiture. Making a lot of assumptions here, but trying to address your concerns. Good luck.

I used it with my canon 60d and t4i with no problems. I work for Lifetouch national school studios with their Nikon d 200's with a large power light with no problems as well. On the transmitter that goes on the camera it only has one little pin in the middle that touches the flash mount receptor. I hope that's understandable. I don't know how to explain it. Anyways it works with my personal cameras and work cameras no problems.

Anyone know if this will work with a Sigma EF-500? I can't see why one would need a Nikon-brand flash unit for it to work... anyone?

Sandro, I purchased this flash for my Canon 70D and I have found no incompatibilities between camera and flash. I love the flash and am very happy with my purchase.

I have this problem But I don't understand your solution, Bruce. Could you or someone explain it again please? You appear to be saying that if the camera is at something like a standard focal length you can choose both Macro and MF. But you can't - not on mine anyway! In my experience, the camera will not focus below 1ft. The image stays blurred and often the yellow central focus frame will display a question mark. Auto-focus does not work in Macro either - so to all practical purposes the camera has no Macro mode. If someone has a fix for this I'd be very interested.

I use this flash on my Nikon D3100. So far I have only used it with the 4 AA batteries. I have not used it for any long shoots but I have used it for many short ones, and as of yet, (over a year) have only had to change the batteries once. I feel it was an excellent buy for minimal cost.

I don't have enough information yet....what other lenses do you own, and what camera would you be shooting with? Are you the main photographer? Are you bringing lights or at least a high(er) powered flash unit? This is a great lens for macro use, but with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 this cannot be considered a fast lens at all. While a 50mm lens is fantastic for shooting in a more photojournalistic style, you will probably want something a little longer for portraits (especially if you're using a full-frame digital or film camera). Please respond with what camera(s) you'll be using and what other lenses you own and I'll give you more detail

FL mount lenses are mostly compatible with FD mounts. With shorter focal length lenses, you may experience some issues. If you're using this on a full frame EOS camera (like a 5D), it will be more evident than on the smaller sensor bodies (like a Rebel). Mostly it will be an infinity focus thing, or vignetting. You'll probably be fine. Might as well order it and try it out. If it doesn't work out, return it.

Yes Annette, i have a Canon T5i and the flash works fine. Also, this flash should work fine with T2i, T3i, T4i, 60D, ...

That would be a poor choice to use with extension tubes. Its minimum focus distamce is 1.8m (6 feet). You'd need to lower its filter size to 72mm in order to acquire and attach a 72mm macrolite adaptor (not included). You'br better off using something normal to wide with extension tubes, or even better some of the macro lens options straight with the flash (macrolite adaptors are required for all but the mpe65).

I used it on D600 and d7100.. As long as body has built in motor should be fine. Note, you need a hood for outdoor use, can flare in bright light situation like back lit subject.. Very very sharp and excellent on both fx or dx. I like the macro function as well. Excellent build.. Push/pull zoom is easy enough to get used to..

I'm really sorry I can't help you, I bought this flash as a gift for a friend. I would browse through the Nikon forums if I were you....good luck!

Yes it can. It has a 50mm adapter that goes on between the lens and the camera. This also comes with a set of 6 or 7 adapters for different size of lenses. But the unit is designed to work with Macro lens. It does not replace the regular flash light. Hope it helps.
