Two years after the original FinePix S1 Pro, the S2 Pro was introduced in 2002.
Although both the FinePix S2 Pro and the Nikon D100 were designed based on the Nikon F80, the appearance of both cameras, the layout and positioning of the commands as well as the available menus are quite different. |
|
Other than all features that can be found on the Nikon F80 camera, including the Nikon F mount, the FinePix has been boosted with a host of extra features. It was truly packed with many refinements over its predecessor, which was based on the Nikon F60. |
|
The main highlight of the S2 Pro was the 3rd generation Super CCD sensor with its unique octagonal-shaped photo diodes, rotated 45° compared to conventional CCD’s used by Nikon and Canon. |
Lens CompatibilityThis camera has the Nikon F-mount and accepts most Nikon lenses (Nikkor and Series E): Battery SystemThis camera has an unusual, even bizarre, power system. It takes 4 AA cells (lithium primary or NiMH rechargeable batteries strongly preferred over alkaline), and two CR123A lithium batteries. The CR123As are sort-of optional; if they're left out, everything works except the built-in flash (but you get notably shorter life on the AAs). If CR123As are in use, and become exhausted, the camera will sometimes lock up completely. Turning off the camera, removing the CR123As, and turning the camera back on will normally bring it back to life. |
