Although it was unveiled in early February 2004, it took just over 11 months for Fujifilm's FinePix S3 Pro to reach dealers' shelves. The new model, which is targeted at professional photographers and high-end enthusiasts, is based on the Nikon F80 but, rather than using an existing Nikon body, it has a single-piece polycarbonate shell that has been customised for digital photography.

The camera looks and feels a 'level above' the S2 Pro, the new camera has a more rounded appearance with chunkier hand grips and more use of rubber around the hand grip and on the rear. In addition the S3 Pro now has a vertical had grip and shutter release button for easy portrait shooting.

The fascination with infrared photography has been around for a long time. In olden days it required loading and unloading film in the dark and even keeping it safe in its canister prior to use, which these days can play havoc when taking it on planes as TSA officials have every right to open the canister for inspection. (Imagine explaining the need to keep the film in its canister in the dark with 100 harried travelers in line behind you.) More recently, photographers discovered the modification that can be made to digital SLRs that allows them to make infrared
