[QUOTE="grandpaw, post: 247867, member: 8635"] I have investigated this and the voltage on the Vivitar 283 can damage your camera and I would NOT use it. They made two models of his that look identical except that one of them says 283H on the flash and it Can be used with a digital camera due to the lower voltage. When in doubt DO NOT USE IT. You can purchase a flash much cheaper than you can a new camera. As far as getting rid of it I wouldn't do that either because if you get some radio triggers later on so you can use your flashes remotely and not have them attached to your camera, you will be able to use them at that time.
