I might get one when it reaches the current S3 price, but I'm not lining up for it by any means. Cmon who in their right mind releases the same sensor as a "new" camera.

I've said the same on other forums, this isn't a new camera its the S3 MkII or the D200-Portrait. You choose.

Unless Fuji has another waiting in the wings, I've bought my last S-series.
