I bought each for next to nothing from different thrift shops. Of the two, I've only used the ring flash once, and that was over a year ago. I was thinking of getting rid of the 30DX, but now I'm happy I have them both because I I realized I can use them with a Pentax DSLR I bought recently (my first DSLR). I couldn't use either with the Sony F828 I was using before. Not that it will help much, but I've ordered the Pentax mount; until recently I wasn't thinking about you could change the mount.tighelanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00690780458351112808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34648316.post-53671161583187555962010-04-12T19:12:18.646-07:002010-04-12T19:12:18.646-07:00Scott, thanks for the visit and comments.

I have friend from PentaxForums who also highly recommend this flash as the lesser known but a good and dependable favorite.Hin Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11542007867767875530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34648316.post-72805081666165221862010-04-08T05:23:20.356-07:002010-04-08T05:23:20.356-07:00This is the BEST flash, and it has a great dedicat...This is the BEST flash, and it has a great dedicated reflector. I could never understand the fascination with the 283 - this covers a 28mm angle (283 only does 35mm), tilts and swivels, has better controls, is smaller - I still use them and have for 20 years.
