The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Cons:A little old-time, slow. Autofocus a little dancer, small display and little readable.
Opinion:I bought it used to replace my body Nikon F90 deceased and resuscitable only at a high price. I Had several lenses for which I was comfortable with a digital body with Nikon mount. I find it extremely comfortable, immediate and of good quality. Being accustomed to the F90, the occasional madness of the autofocus give me little discomfort, overall it works better also because it is enough to move the lens without changing the frame to solve problems. The focus Lock Button helps, but it's in a slightly odd position for me. The Grip is very comfortable and so the quick management of the essential functions. To make a little ' meditated photos is still very good, for the photos really sporty maybe it is a bit ' lentina, but still acceptable. It Remains a professional machine, so even if objectively exceeded by more modern machines is able to give considerable satisfactions. In particular for portraits or photos of the environment that do not require extreme enlargements of cropped areas: better to completely fill the frame. I use it mainly with a Micro Nikkor 60 that allows really nice portraits, and then with the Nikon 180 and 28. I used it often also with retroreflecting, Chinon 500 and MTO 1100 to take pictures of the Moon. Overall I think I have made a great deal at the time, to use still now as a good film machine.
Pros:Noise snap, color rendering, flash, flesh, highlights
Cons:A quintals
Opinion:I've got the S2 and S5 but that the medium is the best for the final result, color rendering and embodied at the top, very good at high ISO, recovery highlights unmatched, terrifying sound of shutter, good viewfinder, ergonomics that crazy or disgusted, the rest is a ton of swearing to power, slow write obscene, autofocus, menu management, cards undigested and again and this ancorarnDetto the trans X is higher but anonymous, no personality, this (when it works) is another Music
Pros:Ergonomics, dynamic range, viewfinder sensor SuperCCD SR II, double-click button, Live view (Juventus)
Cons:AA batteries, slow writing cf.
Opinion:The S3 Pro is a camera that, despite being released in late 2004, had many advanced features. The real strength is the sensor Fujifilm SuperCCD SR ii 12 mpx actual (including 6 for 6 for highlights and shadows), capable of producing images with stunning color and quality. Another feature of all respect is the extension of the dynamic range of up to 400%, capturing details even in the shadows. Other functions include the Fuji film simulation (2 types, portrait and landscape), vertical shutter release button, connection for studio flash, display 2 more to play and did not indifferent to being the first SLR in the world to be equipped with Live view (albeit in black and white) .rnNell'usato is priced almost ridiculous, I have paid 150 € in good condition without a graffio.rnI defects are the slowness of writing cf (due to the fact that the raw with extension dynamic range weigh 25 MB!) and the AA batteries AA (can also be an advantage) .rnConcludendo, & egrave; an excellent reflex Pro for those looking for a camera body to "study", to portraits and landscapes.
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.
