Flash compatibility

Sorry for stupid question but is my Canon 450d going to work with canon speedlite 300ez ?
Thank you

As far as I can see on a quick search, Canon digital cameras need EX range flashguns to fire, and wont fire with an EZ model unless the flash is in Manual mode. Some EZ models do have a manual mode but it seems the 300EZ doesn't, so it looks like you're snookered unless anyone knows any different.
