04 Jul 2007Auto focus will not workI just rec'd this camera and was very dissapointed to find that the auto focus will not work. Has anyone else had this problem?...–kcphotosfrom Amazon.com
06 May 2007The Fuji s5 Pro isn't merely the D200's artistic bohemian brotherIve owned the D200, and controls and build aside, these are two different cameras. Surprisingly, this camera's nearest competitor isnt the Nikon D200 - it is the Canon 5D. Of course, the Canon clearly bests the s5 on resolution as it should. But that's it. The Fuji gives up little else to the Canon 5D but speed.

11 Apr 2007Fantastic camera for people and portraitsI have a Nikon D200 already but after reading about this camera I decided to buy it. I am not sorry. First off, this is not the camera for you if you need to shoot high speed action shots (more than 3 FPS). This camera does one thing very well...it captures excellent detail both in highlights and shadows due to it's unique sensor.
Pro's: 1. Fantastic color 2. The best Auto white balance I have seen 3. Very beautiful skin tones right out of the camera 4. Fantastic camera body...–James Hatsisfrom Amazon.com
"The moment of truth has come for the Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro ($1,900 street, body only). We've completed full lab tests on a production model, and with Excellent marks across the board in resolution (average 1970 lines), color accuracy (a stellar Delta E of 6.61), and noise ratings of Extremely Low through Low at ISOs 100-1600, the S5 gains an overall Image Quality rating of Excellent by a comfortable margin."
"Featuring exactly the same body as the Nikon D200, the Fuji S5 Pro offers a specific choice for those wanting a top quality DSLR but is the hocus pocus 12Mp resolution process a work of genius, or the tool of the devil?"
