    You might find S5 Pro having the same camera body as Nikon D200. Indeed the S5 body is made of the same magnesium-alloy body as the D200 and even the controls are similar. Deja vu you might say

    But make no mistake, this S5 Pro is a top choice for a semi-pro DSLR that comes in a 12Mp package plus it can also uses all the Nikon-fit lenses that the D200 has access to

    Image noise is well controlled and although I find landscape photos, the D200 has an upperhand, for portraits wise, S5 hands-down is great. Wedding photos and such, I truly recommend the S5

    On the software side, S5 comes with FinePix Studio which is rather slow on my computer, so seek other alternatives perhaps like Fuji Hyper Utility RAW converter

    The Next Evolutionary Stage of Advanced Digital Image Processing Technology

    FUJIFILM’s long experience in film photography and cutting-edge digital image processing technology have crystallized in the ultimate image quality technology - “Real Photo Technology Pro.” This fusion of our new Super CCD SR Pro and RP (Real Photo) Processor Pro realizes ultrahigh resolution with a superb S/N ratio, wider dynamic range and rich tonality for performance and image quality beyond even the imagination of professionals

    Super CCD SR Pro - High Sensitivity ISO3200 & High S/N Ratio

    Emulating the composition of negative film, the unique double-photodiode matrix of Super CCD SR Pro consists of 6.17 million high-sensitivity S-pixels with large light receptor area and 6.17 million R-pixels for wide dynamic range with small light receptor area. The large 23.0mm x 15.5mm CCD with its high resolution canvas of 12.3 million effective pixels also achieves a dynamic range of 400%, approaching that of negative film. Also its optimized optical low pass filter enables high resolution while minimizing moiré. Achieving both high resolution and high S/N ratio, it captures subjects in clear, exquisite detail.

    RP (Real Photo) Processor Pro - Exhaustive Noise Reduction & Smoother Tonality

    This newly developed processor features the very latest in digital image processing technology. Using “Double Noise Reduction” and a unique advanced algorithm, RP Processor Pro accurately identifies, separates and thoroughly eliminates noise only from the image data signal. Even at the highest sensitivity of ISO3200, the clarity is amazing.

    Freedom to Customize the Extended Dynamic Range

    The extended dynamic range setting can be precisely and optimally set according to subject and scene conditions. In addition to Auto for automatic range selection, there is a Manual mode offering a selection of 6 steps: 100% (STD), 130%, 170%, 230% (W1), 300% and 400% (W2). Select 400% (W2) and get maximum performance of both “S” and “R” pixels for an exposure level equivalent to +2EV and capability to capture outstanding photos in high-contrast scene

    Adobe RGB Color Space Support

    FinePix S5 Pro fully supports Adobe RGB color space, the choice and standard of graphics professionals and the printing industry. The superior color gamut of Adobe RGB color space fills the photographic expression needs of today’s professional.
