I have been completely satisfied with my sigma EM 140 macro ring flash. I use it for art purposes and love to use it inside and outside. I have learned to take great shots and my experience is extensive so I would say to give this a try for digital photography. I take it with me everywhere I travel so happy to advise you to buy one. My EOS Canon camera is suited to this flash and suitable for Macro lenses but it can be used with other lens types. I have adjusted the flash so I got 3 dimensional effects and that was pretty cool while I was in China. You can use a shutter speed faster than the shutter's normal synchronized speed so be aware of that. While the shutter is open, the flash will fire repeatedly so I can get a series of images of the subject exposed in 1 frame and I like doing that. All in all I have been really pleased with the results of my macro ring flash and happy to share my opinion.
 Bulky but worth it May 11, 2010
Designed to work (On the edge.)
The ring flash puts the light in the correct place at the correct intensity. Both bulbs brightness is independently adjustable. It is a very large unit emphasized by the connecting cable not disconnect for transporting. Weight is substantial.
I love this flash and would give it 5 stars but....
If Sigma had designed this a little larger than the current maximum 77mm to accommodate 82mm filters the "Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 IF EX DG HSM AF Standard Zoom Lens for Sony Digital SLR Cameras" which is a macro, which I own would also work with this Flash. I am very disappointed that it does not fit, and consider this a very big oversight by Sigma! Why did you do this to me Sigma, do your product designers talk to each other?
I currently use this Flash on the my "Sigma APO 70-200mm f/2.8 II EX DG HSM Macro Zoom Lens for Sony Digital SLR Cameras" which is a macro lens and my "Sony 50mm f/1.4 Lens for Sony Alpha Digital SLR Camera" which is not a macro.

Easy to attach and use. I haven't learned all the features but right out of the box, and set to auto mode, the flash works great. It gives out an even fill light and the model light is good for low light conditions. Nice quality and is simple to put on or take off.

...that photographers shooting close-ups want an affordable ring flash with professional features. A ring flash is the way pro's get that amazing lighting on very close subjects...do you want that too?
