Could somebody tell me if the Sigma EF530 DG ST will work as a slave for either the Canon 550eX, or alongside it fired by the ST-E2. I've got the Canon gear I mentioned, but I think I need another remote flash and I'm wondering if the Sigma will operate with the Canon gear.

Thanks in advance.

The EF530 DG ST doesn't, the EF530 DG SUPER will work both as a wireless E-TTL slave and as a "dumb" optical slave.

Thanks,
Your replies clear that up for me. Time to shop for something else.
