Mostly trigger voltage is different. Older film flashes used higher voltages, which if used with newer digital cameras can fry the sensitive circuitry in it. A good practice to follow would be to buy flashes made by the manufacturer of your camera, for your camera. Always remember to check the compatibility of your flash with your camera model.
