    Can I use my Cannon Speedlite 199 flash from a SLR with a DSLR?

    Cheers

    You should be able to. Canon hot shoes are universal.

    It is not a hot shoe issue but an electronics compatibility problem I was wondering about. I was told there is a difference in flashes made for digital cameras but have no details

    yes that is correct...the electrical can actually mess up the camera flash system or the flash. I wouldn't take the risk of using it...check out a 430ex or something...they are pretty cheap now
