Hi, my sigma EF500 super just died on me today (in the middle of a grad photoshoot!). It was working fine, until my friend told me that there's no flash output. After changing fresh batts and testing it out, I think the bulb blew. All other functions/buttons are working fine, and when I press the 'test' button, I can hear a soft 'click' sound but no flash output.

Is it cheap to replace the bulb? I think this flash is still under warranty but I bought it 2nd hand and don't have the receipt. If it is cheap, I thought I'd just bring it to any camera repair shop (like camera workshop?).

Anyone can help me? Thanks.
 

sickmah flash, unreliable. ever tried Camera Workshop?
 

ask mylau for the recpt lor...
