According to DPReview..http://www.dpreview.com/news/0705/07050703canons5is.asp

"The compact design incorporates a new hot shoe that provides compatibility with selected Canon EX Speedlite external flashes"

Saw this further down on the page.

• Canon Speedlites (220EX, 430EX, 580EX)
• E-TTL with EX series Speedlites, Canon's High Power Flash HF-DC1

The S3 IS doesn't have a flash hotshoe, so no, they are not compatible.

Sorry, I just realized the link I gave you was for the S5 IS and not the S3.
