Any Sigma, Promaster, Vivitar, Sunpak or Metz flash that is dedicated to the Canon EOS system should work. Your 3000 isn't capable of using Canon's latest E-TTL flash metering, so don't bother paying extra fr that. But do consider that you do get more capabilities, power, features and quality with higher prices, and these are good reasons to buy Canon brand flashes.

Sigma's EF-430, EF-500 or Sunpak 5000 are good units for the price.
