Of course, the HV (high voltage) in the Vivitar 285 HV model name does not indicate a high trigger voltage. Instead, it is a reference to the fact that this particular model (versus the previous version) accepts optional high voltage power sources (wall adapters, battery packs, etc) for faster recycle times and more flashes. Modern versions of this flash unit have a relatively low trigger voltage that is indeed safe to use with most digital cameras.
As for myself, I have three AF-540 FGZ flash units to use with my K10D. One is used occasionally on the camera as a regular flash, while the three (combined with the on-camera flash as a wireless controller) are used off-camera as a location lighting system.
