I guess this thread is somewhat dead, so I can share what I know.
The 18-200mm VR was introduced after the S3 was released. So the S3 is not perfectly compatible. It needs a chip to help with auto focus. If you had a new S3, when the 18-200mm VR was released, Fuji would chip your camera free of charge. I doubt they still offer that service. If you notice no auto focus issues, maybe your camera is allready chipped for this lens. |
