Advertisement Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Hi shanefking, Take a look here New S3 owner. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
irenedp Posted June 12, 2023 Share #42 Posted June 12, 2023 I acquired a brand new S3 at a really nice price to complement my S2. My experience is still limited but I love the accuracy and neutrality of the color and the detail, which keeps on par with the S2 despite the almost duplicated resolution. Camera shake is more obvious than with the S2. This particular image, for instance, taken at 1/60th with the 70 mm needed shake correction. At 1/125th it is ok but still some very minor blurriness can be appreciated at 100%. So either higher shutter speeds and ISO, or tripod. But so far, really happy with it. Welcome, dear visitor!

Depending on the lens you use, motion blur may occur (even with the mirror in locked-up position). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeicaR10 Posted June 16, 2023 Share #47 Posted June 16, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) Irenedp, Congratulations on your new S3. Its a superb S camera and IMO best in class for color and of course the excellent S lenses. I used the S system for my business for over a decade. It always delivered in spades in all types of tough environments. I agree with Helged's above post #43. The key for the S cameras is usually triple the shutter speed for whatever lens you are using. Mainly due to mirror slap if the shutter speed is set low. Of course, I always used the S cameras on a robust tripod with mirror up, AF off. The resulting photographs the I created for my clients were stunning. One of the best aspects of the S cameras are the OVF, what you see, is what you get. I am certain the S4 will be stellar when it arrives on scene in 2025. r/ Mark 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it can be used handheld in many situations, both outdoors and on location. I always carry a tripod in the car just in case, and in the studio I shoot with a pretty heavy tripod and the camera tethered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
