The S3 has a pretty decent price too.  What Nikon body is it based 
on?  It looks like the D1 series.  The problem with the Fuji S series 
in the past is they were based on cheap Nikon consumer cameras that 
were not that great in AF nor that durable.

I have an older  friend heavily into Nikon,  but he shoots a lot of 
wide shots and the 1.5 crop is limiting with his current lenses.  He 
is also a bit hard on his cameras.  If the S3 is based on one of the 
Nikon pro-level bodies it might be just the camera for him.  He would 
have to get one of the really wide angle zooms to use with it though.
