The FinePix S3 Pro is a Digital SLR, introduced by Fuji in late 2004. It is based on the Nikon N80 (F80) body, with a Fuji Super CCD SR sensor with 6 million pixel locations having two photodiodes per location. This gives images up to 4256 x 2848 (12 megapixels). It was suceeded in late 2006 by the S5 Pro (there was no S4 Pro).
