the sensor of s3pro gives better dynamic range ..... so at the end of the day...it depends on wat kind of a shooter u are... if u are into weddings and portraits, u prob dun need like 8fps anyway...so perhaps better colours would serve u better.....
for me....s3 is the way to go hahahaa....

Fuji is onli selling their CCD, not the advanced algorithmn we see in D2h and Deetooaxe... so well..comparing the S3 to D100 which i believe has better algorithmns, well... 2.5fps, means its still in the very amatuer - pro amatuer series camera...
pinoy is rite, this camera is more rather suited for controlled environment like studio setups.... but with a 2.5fps, u are very limited to what types of studio photography u can take....
The S3pro is most suited for studio work. what do you think it was for? to bring to frontline of a war?
D2h, you bring to perch on the edge of a wimbledon match/French Open. your editor receives your pics secs later at the office for publication on net.
Then the photographer whipped out his S3pro to shoot several shots of the prize presentation ceremony to sell for several thousands bucks to sports magazines such as Tennis. and return to D2h for a brief interview shots of Federrer/Agassi, which is again uploaded in secs to HQ, hundreds of KM away!
The beige lens barrel guy at the other corner found that the SWM brokedown again.. and asked the S3pro guy to spare some of his pics, which the S3pro guy, being nice and friendly obliges. Subsequently the guy with his broken down lens claims the image as his.

DR is one factor to consider. 3.6K for a sensor? No way. I can get a D2H that can do more. Maybe the DR loses out, but it's not that much either. I can tweak curves to match the colours of the Fujis anyway.Witness said:
To me, I'm just paying 3.6K for a sensor. Whereas for D2H, I'm paying 3.6K for a lot more.

AHHAHAHA... :thumbsup:
You know, years back, i had the same experience happen to me, my colleague's 1N broke down, ie: he couldn't get his film to rewind and only had 1 body... for a press coverage. so, lend him my F4 and an old 70-300 ....
He then bought the setup from me after this assignment. :sticktong
but that was almost like 20 yrs ago? hehehe

There's SO much the D2H will win vs S3 Pro.
- i-TTL flash system vs TTL
- CLS vs no CLS
- Cam2000AF vs Cam900AF
- 3D MM II vs erm... not sure
- WT-1/WT-2 vs no WT
- Battery life
- 8 fps vs 3fps
These are just documented known specs...
I have used S2 Pro before and using D2H now for portraiture, wedding and events shoot. Play with S3 Pro before, before deciding to stick to D2h.
Although I like Fuji colors, the small viewer make it very uncomfortable to see sometimes.
Maybe I quite used to Nikon F5&4 which the viewer is 100% same goes for D2h.
But in terms of handling D2h is more comfortable while shooting vertical.
No regrets getting the D2h. Always give me satisfactory end result.

i think i saw an f80 which has a grip ? battery grip and vertical shutter?? well.. looks like a far la !.... the bulb la... f5 has no bulb while the f80 has it...
erm.. whether f80 looks like f5 ornot, not impt..
but....
whats more impt is what the camera can achieve, i think S3.. is realli onli a high MP dslr.. nthing more to give accept for more details and good faithful colour reproductions. other den that.. all lose to D2h and even the D2hs...
LF and MF people uses only:
- TTL or manual flash
- No CLS
- Manual focus
- No 3D MM II
- Manual advance of film and shutter cocking
- No battery
- 1 Frame Per FEW seconds
In the end, they still took great pictures.
