There are more on Flickr here. Taken with the S3 IS and our ZS19, ZS20 and an iPhone
 
Nice shots.

Those grassy balds are my favorite place to visit. Can get some awesome shots with a wide angle lens. Didn't make it there this year yet. I guess the Rhododendron blooms are past peak by now.
 
the S3 has very nice colors for a "venerable" 6mp camera. its rendering looks more natural to my eyes than any of the newer cameras.
 
The only other older camera that I really enjoyed when I had the opportunity was the Sony F707/F717. That camera was a beast, and had excellent IQ.

I've heard that the Canon S5 IS was just as good or better than the S3. I don't have experience with it, though.
