Can using just any flash damage an M6?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Leica Photography : One Thread

Just wondering if I can use any flash on my M6. It just has an x-point, it's non-ttl. I've got an an SB-28 and a Promaster flash with Nikon module. Will using the Promaster damage my camera?

The M6 uses a mechanical flash sync and can be used with any flash. The M6TTL uses an electronic flash sync and should be used with flashes that have a low sync voltage.
