All i know is that the S5 PRO is really really good for portraits/skin tones. Do any of you know the differences and which of these three would be the best? And by the way, can i use ALL of my Nikon lenses on ANY of the three???

The S2 has around 60K actuations for $150 dollalrs.

The S3 has around 20K actuations for $200 dollars.

The S5 PRO i could get it for around $400 dollars with around 20K actuations or less.

Get the S3 if you value sharper images and a grip. For quite some people film simulations from S3 are also better than these from S5.

Get the S5 if you value D200 body, better AF, metering with AI lenses and I-TTL flash system.

Both of them are very slow and clunky 6-mpix cameras (not interpolated) but take amazing portraits.
