Warm welcome to you fellow Alpha user.

The Sony F56 is an older model so it may be well used. Buying the F58 should be quite alright since it's pretty new. Look at the exterior condition of the flash and test out all the settings (ratios) and functions (wireless, HSS) of the flash to ensure they are working.
