Re: Fuji S2, S3 or S5 PRO?? Assistance Needed!

I have an S3 and S5. Despite being older and more limited I prefer carrying the S3. Dead easy to use and handle despite being a big camera. Also better menus and controls. IQ is much the same. Sadly the S3 will not meter with older AI-AIS lenses. With the S5 I have added a split image focus screen and can use all the old lenses on manual or aperture priority. The build quality of the S5 is better than the S3.

Although I agree on the fine qualities of the S2, too many appear on Ebay that are not working and for parts only which is a worry.
