Monday I sent a post in regarding the Sunpack flash that I mentioned, the correct flash model is Sunpack Digiflash 3000, not A3000.
Anyway anybody who has bought this flash with their D.S.L.R. give me a post about it, i'd like to know if you had any problems with this flash (digiflash 3000), if so post back.
thank you

I've never bought one. Almost did out of desperation when I dropped my Nissin flash.
Always bothered me that I couldn't find any images of the back of the unit.
From reading the reviews, if you only need a flash every once and a while, they are fine. For someone who really uses speedlights, the lack of controls and flimsy build are big negatives.
They go for about $60.00 at my local Walmart. I added about $15 and got a Yongnuo 560II
I have one and so far I've had no problems with the sunpak 3000 as far as operation. The only thing that I found is if not careful the power switch is easy to bump on in my camera bag, so I remove the batteries when I'm not using it. Be sure th match the flash unit to your camera make.

I bought flash with Canon SX50 camera 6 months ago from Samy's camera here in Culver City, Calif because it was recommended to me by samy's salesperson at that store, & sales people from its main store on Fairfax ave here in L.A., the problems started happning in june where every other image was dark, at that event I shot over 300 images at that party & had to delete over 80 images, the end of june my church had a 100 woman in white event, in that case I shot over 500 images, I had to delete a 124 images cause they were too dark, last month I had my pastor's installation event, again I shot nearly 400 images & I had to delete 93 photos, the flash was acting out & was misfiring, I took it to samy's in culver city, & they had had sent it out to sunpack in jersey, & I got it back Tuesday & tested it out its fine, I don't know why it misfired?
also i'm curious on what kind of camera you have with the sunpack 3000, & is the auto focus light working on your flash, mine doesn't, I don't know if its the brand of camera or what? post at me on your thought with your digiflash, thanks.
