Default "What Digital Photography" votes Fuji's S3 best sensor

Brit magazine.
The Super CCD sensor is the best sensor type
out there, according to them. They compared it
to everything else including full frame Canon,
Foveon, 4/3rds, etc. Key advantages? Dynamic
range and colour rendition.

Yeah... What's a little noise between friends?

If this is the sensor they use in the F10 it is very good indeed.

They mentioned seeing white areas that were burned out
with other sensors that upon turning down the brightness
presented detail using the Fuji. Seems that noise
took a back seat to dynamic range.

But noise is -THE ONLY- thing we can care about! Anything else like dynamic
range, tonality or color rendition are useless details compared to
measuring noise at ISO800 and up.

Noise you can reduce in software, but not recover blown highlights....
