    I recently got a fujifilm finepix S3 pro with a Nikon ED AF NIKKOR 80-200mm 1:2.8 lens.

    Are these actually any good? :pac:

    I remember reading something about this camera having greater dynamic range than any other digital. So yeah, sounds pretty good. How do you mean you just "got" it?

    A family member gave it to me as they got a newer camera

    you'll find that is the lens the one that takes the picture, not the camera
    and you have a great lens!
    some other day you may need to upgrade your camera, but not that lens

    That above average thing.. The pictures it takes are brillaint.

    It is horribile with batteries though, I mean.. They last about 20 minutes, take about 6 hours to charge.

    I might buy some better rechargeable ones in argos now.

    At the time that camera was seen as a great wedding camera as it gave great photos but didn't have good speed. It's also got the integrated vertical shutter release as far as I remember, which is very handy for portraiture, but makes the camera bulky.

    If you don't like it you can always pass it onto me. ;) If you got these for free you are a lucky individual indeed.

    The lens is not a particularly new one as far as I know, but it's still a good one, and fast too.

    Good luck with them.
