From a S5Pro owner since day 1. I chose it for its dynamic range, its color, it was simply there... Nothing to change, nothing to add, simply perfect. I bought it as soon as it was released, my first dslr after a F3. Never looked back, although now, I am really tempted by an x-pro2. Thanks guys for making this video.

Everyone (even you) miss the OBVIOUS comparison I used as a Fuji Pro Rep at that time. Like a decent stereo speaker, the SCCD had a woofer & tweeter. The small "speaker" was tailored to reproduce high notes (bright) and the woofer made the low notes (dark) . The Super CCD did the same thing. But in those days all anyone would talk about was sensor counts, not dynamic range, image sharpness, let alone COLOR.

I have my S5 pro since 2007. I traveled the world with it, and love output til today. My Fuji S5 pro is working like a new one. I replaced the leather at Nikon, also my Nikon service is always happy to see old lady. :) Yes for Kids stuff and portaits in early year and autum i prefer this over my D700 and D810.On fuji paper with Fuji machines in print, it looks like .. analog. So i hope my camera will do another 10 Years. :)

I still have mine. I had bought a D200 and I hated its AWB, so even tho the buffer wasnt deep and it wasnt as fast, I ate the 15% restocking fee and got the S5. You simply had to shoot deliberately, no machine gunning. I once did a wedding with a D700 and a S5 as a backup. I did the ceremony and group shots with the Nikon - about 400 images- and much of the reception with the Fuji - 1600 images. It took 3 days to edit the Nikon images - inconsistent WB mostly and the Fuji - 20 minutes. Only a few images needed slight adjustments (color casts from weird lighting). The prints were amazing. I would still buy a S5. I also loved the files from the S3 and lord, THAT was slow. Gorgeous images. I know some photogs that keep them around because of that look. The trick was to underexpose by a half stop or so.

Best moment of the video at 9:10 The APS-C dSLR Fuji FinePix S5 Pro was released in 2006. At that period dSLR technology wasn't so inferior as it mentioned in the video. Two years later in 2008 the APS-C dSLR Nikon D90 was released. The first dSLR with video recording capabilities. Also in 2008 the mirrorless revolution in photography with the micro 4/3 cameras. Three years after Fuji FinePix S5 Pro, in 2009 the Canon 5D MK II was released. The first full frame dSLR with video recording capabilities. So the period was full of innovations that drastically changed the path of photography and videography.

These kind of videos really show us and many "technical maniacs" what it was just 10 years ago, while now we complain of noise at 3200 ISO, when just 10 years ago that was the top available in professional cameras. That we want 4k, but back then Live View was only available for 30 seconds. Just give it time and technology will be so much better (it already is incredible, as it was 10 years ago), and in the mean time just focus on taking pictures and work on ourselves as photographers and videographers. Technology always come and go, but our skills will stay with us. Great video!

I still have the Fuji S5pro. And it is still with when doing paid work. I use this camera when I am an rough environments like factories to shoot documentories or when I do workshops with beginning models. I also took it with me to New York in 2015 and enlarged images up to 100cm x 70cm. This camera went also with me to Tel Aviv this March. Photoshop has gotten better. Resoltution is still not everything.

I used my 11 year old, 8MP Canon EOS 20D exclusively up until 2013! Apart from the kit zoom lens which developed sporadic AF issues back in 2011 and onwards. The camera itself is still in perfect working order, even after using it a few of times outside in light rain. And I have yet to top the photos I took with that camera over the years, with my current Fujifilm X-E2. Even though I think that has more to do with my technique (I've had far less time over the last few years to devote to my hobby) than any shortcoming with the X-E2, overall its a lovely camera!

The Fuji S5 was my first digital slr. I sold it last year. I've just rebought one because having gone through umpteen modern cam's I still can't find one that matches the 'resonance' that the S5 creates with its jpgs. It's also an incredibly ergonomic camera, with dials in the right places etc. A proper photographers camera I think.

Their x-trans tech on the new CMOS chips is basically the same tech as these old SuperCCD's. Three normal RGB Diodes for normal resolution and color rendition, and one bigger black-and-white diode for better noise control, better DR, less chromatic noise, ETC. It even goes through the same demosiacing process when you edit the files.

Very nice episode, because the history will put the today in the context. Pixel peepers, dynamic range weepers and gear heads doesn't almost never remember from where we came, and that today when we have 17-22 stops possibility for exposure to push and pull shadows and highlights, it is way better than we ever had for the film. And the cameras are not limiting us, but some people just takes the current gear to limit themselves without good reason. So seeing these old things to deliver today... Put everything in context in very nice way.

Still using my 4th unit of S5 Pro in 2016. My 3rd unit had the same problem of having to press the shutter twice. It's a mirror box failure can be fixed but probably cheaper to buy another used piece, which I did. Only now, after 10 years, am I considering a different camera once my S5 Pro dies. Probably the Fuji XPro-2 or yet to be launched XT-2. Previously, S5 was still the top choice for me.

For me, the best camera from 2007 to me is the A900/ 850. Was my first digital camera with minolta glass and to this day people compliment the skin tones and colors. Sure the 1ds mk iii is a beast, but the sensor in the A900 had amazing dynamic range in bright sunlight. I could shoot at 10 am on the beach and the model and sky were exposed. Its amazing how underrated older sensors were. Not to mention it was the sharpest sensor on the market. I dumped my d800e for a h3d ii from 2007. And the raws look amazing. Older cameras just had that look, similar to film. Now its more feature packed then look and the raws seem too digital. To this day nothing impresses me more then the A900 portraits in natural light

I still have two S5Pro (one is up for sale with only 4K actuations on the shutter) and even though I now use and enjoy a Nikon D800 the files the S5 use to produce are still unrivaled, I got also and X-Pro1 in the hope the got back that look and feel of the SuperCCD but it's light years far away; also, been crazy enough to buy a pristine D2Xs whose DR sucks but whose colors are way more pleasant than modern cameras. Fuji created big competition with the S5Pro, it's a pity they couldn't use the Nikon F bayonet to make an S7Pro, that would have been another killer D-SRL. Nice video by the way, well done but not all the S5Pros around have that fault of the double shutter hit before getting a shot...

Hello, I bought this camera used from London 5 years ago a its superb, now it has 110k actios and works perfetly, I have few questions - can I remove antiAA filter for sharper images ? and - what lenses do you recomed ? kit lens Nikkor 18-xy(z) are not perfect, Tamron 28-75 is SUPERB lens, Tokina 11-16 (oldest) also, what else ? I've used Tamron 28-75 for years and its perfect, no distortion, no abarations, what about wide angle - you miss only this segment, what about Nikkor 16-85 VR DX ? what about Nikkor 35mm DX ? Nikkor 50mm 1.8 not exactly perfect, I tried 50mm 1.8 G, Nikon 70-210 F4-4 from year 1988 little bit cold colours, but usable and works perfectly

Hmmm the Fuji S3 (pictured for a fraction of a second when the reviewer mentions "Frankenstein cameras") was bulky but not weird. The built in vertical grip made it awesome in use and one of the most comfortable cameras to hold. And owning a S3 (still) and having shot a S5 on a trial I went back to the S3. The S5 had the great body of a D200 and was faster but the S3 made sharper JPGs. Also, putting the RAF files through ACR rather than its contemporary Fuji HyperUtility gets you very good 12MP files. What HyperUtility was good at was in getting the colour off the files. And gave you remote camera control.

+mechalens It was an innovation...14 years ago. Now to see a significant difference between models of the same camera, you need to skip 2 or 3 conseciutive releases and most of the times it will still be only an update to existing features, not an upgrade to something that's not on the market. Sadly.

I'm an amateur photographer and I have X-Pro2 and X-E1. Fujifilm did a great job in the past few years but unfortunately it is still a minority in the market. There are too many people only focus on the size of sensor, high ISO performance and megapixels... Thanks for God that Fujifilm constantly sticks to their conception -- high quality, compact body and light weight.

Absolutely stellar video series, after few years i got bored with all of that high-tech equipment, cameras these days are more like small laptops rather then real cameras. I love the feeling of making photos with old Canon 1-series cameras, like 1D mk2 or 1Ds mk2 - maybe you could review one of these?

+TheCameraStoreTV Any chance you'll do any first gen Nikon Digital vids or even vids on early Minolta digital cameras? I'm really liking these videos, it's nice to see how far digital has come since the 90's and early 2000's!

I also had s% Pro and i really loved ist!! For exactly the reasons you mentioned. Especially the better dynamic for the time and the absolutely nice colors out of the box. The biggest drawback for me was more and more that it was/is too big and too heavy (for me, like quite all (D)SLRs). Because of that i was tired of draging this brick around ant it more an more stayed at home collecting dust. Today i use a small mft DSLM and my whole camera Setup (including everything like 4 lenses, batteries, a small camera bag,...) has almost the same weight than only the S5Pro with one single lens!! But watching your video makes me still miss the great time i had and the nice pictures i shot with this lovely peace of camera. So thanks for remembering. ;-)

The camera that actually inspired me to take up photography was the one aidan used in the ring two. It was a canon power shot pro 1. I don't know if you guys can find it but i think it would make an interesting video. It actually does movies, though only at 15 fps.
