Using old flashguns on digital cameras



Hello,
Can anyone tall me for sure is it safe if I use the flashgun Metz 45CT1 on Fujifilm Finepix s100fs? I've read that it is unsafe if You use some flashguns on some Digital cameras because of producing high Volts. Some flashguns give few 100-s Volts (200,400 or more)while shooting. Should I buy a new dedicated flashgun, or I can use my "good old" Metz 45CT-1 and Vivitar 285 "old"? Thank you, Zvonko
