You can do a lot of what a DSLR can do with the S3. Just be warned that shots will show quite a bit of noise when you get a little crazy with it. A tripod helps a lot. Using the high speed continous shooting mode really helps make some of those back yard BBQ pics a little more interesting. It will shoot 3 frames/sec and give you the odd surprise keeper.
Thanks for clearing that up. Is it like the other powershot models that have that wide angle lens that screws overtop the existing one?
