The Vivitar 285HV is a workhorse of a flash. The 283, if one of the older
models, could fry some modern cameras. I'd pass on the 283 and if the 285HV
is in good condition, with a decent price, it will serve you well. Just go
to KEH and some other used equipment sites (Cameta Camera comes to mind) to
get a good feel for the retail selling price so you don't end up paying more
than you should.
