About Fujifilm Finepix S-3 Pro UVIR Scientific & Forensic Digital SLR Camera, Body Only Kit, 12.3 Megapixel, Uses Nikon Mount Interchangeable Lenses - USA

FinePix S3 Pro UVIR. Get ready to see things... Differently

Scientific and forensic digital photography has come of age with the introduction of the Fujifilm FinePix S3 Pro IR series of digital SLR cameras. Gone are the days of 3d party custom modifications that void warranties & leave you without support.

As infrared film becomes less common due to availability & costly complex chemical processing, the need for high resolution DSLR's that provide faster results in both infrared & ultra violet wavelengths has become critical. Fujifilm's S3 Pro IR model now makes it possible to capture, analyze, transfer, & output images faster than film processing.

Digital IR & UV Applications include: Forensic science, medical analysis of skin conditions, toxicology, vascular tracing, tattoo documentation, biological trace detection, evidence & counterfeit documenting, crime scene & forgery investigations, surveillance, gun shot residue, burned documentation recovery, bit mark analysis, & autopsies.

For the law enforcement community, special light sources are often used to see in alternate spectrums during the evidence-gathering phase of an investigation. Therefore in-field, high-resolution documentation in the ultraviolet or infrared spectrums has become key to many aspects of a case. It's now important to photograph field evidence before it is removed & undergoes potential change from further analysis.

FinePix S3 Pro UV IR:
The Super CCD SRII's low band pass filter (ultra violet protection) has been removed along with the IR protection filter. This optimizes the wide dynamic of the Super CCD SRII to see in both visible, UV, & IR spectrums at once. The application for the IRUV model is primarily scientific in nature. Due to sensitivity to such a wide range of wavelengths, manual focusing & exposure control are required.

Capture of a desired wavelength is managed by direct lens filtration, tuned to the light source in use. Fujifilm's exclusive 30-second Super CCD live preview mode allows fast easy pre-capture verification & direct manual focusing via the LCD before the image is captured.

Some SLR lenses are protected against UV & IR light penetration; therefore review all lens technical specifications. The S3 Pro IR's exclusive 30-second Super CCD live-preview mode allows fast easy pre-capture verification & direct manual focusing via the LCD before the image is captured.

Fujifilms Exclusive Super CCD SRII with 400% wide dynamic range captures more highlight/shadow detail with less noise. With an ultra-high resolution maximum image size of 12.1 million recording pixels, detail is astonishing.

Live CCD post-capture preview & focus verification provide a live 30-second preview from the CCD to the LCD monitor. Up to 1600 ISO with very low noise even during long 30-second exposures. Supports Nikon F mount lenses, & Nikon Flash interfaces, an In-camera B&W capture mode & Advanced RAW file processing.
