Unlike horses, they're rather odd-looking creatures with lots of lumps and protuberances. They also have a grumpy and sometimes difficult demeanour.Why are we telling you this? Well, if the Fujifilm FinePix S3 Pro SLR were an animal... then it would al...
Good dynamic range, Smooth images, Extremely well built
Confusing layout, Takes AA batteries, Very expensive
Acamel is a horse thats been designed by committee - or so the saying goes. Unlike horses, theyre rather odd-looking creatures with lots of lumps and protuberances. They also have a grumpy and sometimes difficult demeanour.Why are we telling you this...
The widest dynamic range weve seen in a dSLR; top-notch overall out-of-camera image quality; histograms for both luminosity and individual colour channels; D-TTL flash exposure control and PC terminal
Skimpy buffer when using wide dynamic range mode; ISO setting clumsily located on main mode dial; exposure controls operate only in half-stop increments; somewhat heavy-handed noise reduction in ISO 1,600 JPEGs

Nice design, improved handling, built-in vertical grip with single battery, new sensor Super CCD SR II.
Slow, the AF ‘hunts’ on some subjects, batteries don’t last long enough, best of the dynamic range only comes into play using CCD RAW format.
The S3 Pro looks overpriced compared to many of the D-SLRs appearing on the market now. But, while this is not a sports photographer’s snapper, it offers uniqueness with its wide dynamic range thanks to the dual pixel layout. This makes it a real soc...
Abstract: Only two things detract this technological marvel from greatness: its price and its slowness. Otherwise, the Fuji S3 Pro is superior in a many ways, most notably its extended dynamic range. This is the camera to choose when dynamic range is paramount ...
Abstract: Compared with the FinePix S2 Pro Fujifilm improved an awful lot and added some useful functions to the S3 Pro. It is obvious right away that the Fujifilm FinePix S3 Pro is a camera for the professional photographer. Speed is not the strongest side of t...
