FujiFilm S3 Pro

Pros: Ergonomics by professional but a bit 'more compact in size; very wide dynamic range to be a machine of 2004; Jpeg on room practically almost perfect "analog" (this is also a mode to simulate the famous give Fuji). Additional button for vertical shooting, dual memory card.

Cons: Shutter speed of only 2 to 2.5 frames per sec; very small buffer that saturates quickly; mismanagement of both alkaline and rechargeable batteries: the batteries discharge quickly and does not give notice. Large lag between pressing the button and the actual shot to be a reflex. Already visible noise above 200 ISO.

Opinion: The Fuji S3 is a machine obsolete when compared with recent SLR but can give great satisfaction when used to its best potential. The sensor is composed of pixels and sub-pixels to extend the dynamic range and allow more "three-dimensional" come with optical level such as the Nikon 18-70 3.5-4.5 DX (try a comparison with the Nikon D70 which is the same time for yourself). The Jpeg baked not need improvement in post production, are ready for printing. The body comes from analogue Nikon F80 with battery pack which allows you to have the feel of a professional body ergonomically but more compact and handy. Coming cons for sure we can cite the slow burst and buffer which add up to a bad battery management, but unfortunately these problems make it a machine not reliable when dealing with situations that require a lot of shots, volleys and high Raw files. Excellent instead as body studio and "relax" because it pushes to take littleand think of the shooting parameters as was done with the film.
