So I'm flash hunting for my new camera. Fairly sure I'll just go with a 430EX for now, as I don't really know what I'm doing. Flash is to go with my newly acquired Canon Powershot S5 IS, and perhaps with a digital SLR sometime down the road. The EX is listed as being compatible with the S-series powershots.
Along comes a local ad for someone selling a 35mm rebel, with a 430EZ flash. I inquired about the flash only, and they are willing to sell it.
For a while I thought I was on wheel of fortune in a parallel universe and kept buying the wrong consonant, but looking at pictures, the X and Z are truly different models. Apparenlty the Z is an older model.
Can any of you definitively say whether or not the 430EZ is compatible with an S5IS?

It fit analog Canons only.
Of course you can use it as manual flash with all Canons
and any other brand camera.
