I am now the proud owner of the Canon EOS350D.
I also have my old Pentax AF200S Dedicated Flash used on film
photography. I would like to use this until I can upgrade
Specifications state that it will operate on any Hot Shoe Camera.
I have also read that I should be careful with the flash in case the
voltage is too high and may damage my DSLR.
I would appreciate any comments on my particular dilemma

If you check out the following website you will see that your Pentax gun has
a trigger voltage of only 7.65 volts and can therefore do no harm to your
new camera.
