I've been using a 283 since they were first introduced more than 20
years ago. I remember waiting for the package to arrive in the mail. I
have the wide angle and tele adapters, as well as the off-camera sensor,
which are useful for some situations, but not when you have to have a
flash ready when you are on the run.
The concern I have with mine is that it has a very high terminal voltage
and draws a lot of current across the flash contacts. I've used it with
several cameras, including a 3.5F and haven't noticed any damage.
I believe that later versions included some provision to limit the
voltage and/or peak contact current.
