The FinePix S5 Pro is a digital single lens reflex camera introduced by Fujifilm on 2006-09-25.[1] It replaces the previous FinePix S3 Pro and keeps the Nikon F mount compatibility, including DX size lenses. It is based on the Nikon D200 body,[2] and benefits from its improvements: 11-point autofocus, i-TTL flash, a bigger 2.5 inch LCD and a lithium-ion battery. It boasts a Super CCD 23×15.5 mm image sensor of the same configuration as its predecessor, with 6.17 million low sensitivity pixels and 6.17 million high sensitivity pixels to give a high dynamic range, and a boost top 3200 iso.

It introduces also a face detection feature for reviewing those details faster and a "live view" function to help focusing. It is possible to use it in tethered operation, to connect a barcode reader and a wired ethernet or wifi link.[3]

[edit] Compatibility with Nikon D200 battery systems

While the Finepix S5 Pro does share the same body design as the Nikon D200, it is incompatible with its lithium-ion battery, the EN-EL3e. It is, however, compatible with the Nikon MB-D200 battery pack and vertical battery grip, provided that Fujifilm NP-150 lithium batteries or 6 AA cells are used.

[edit] UV/IR version of camera

On 2007-07-13 Fujifilm announced an ultraviolet and infrared sensitive version of the Finepix S5 Pro, the FinePix IS Pro. The camera is marketed towards the law-enforcement, medical and scientific communities.
