Fujifilm X-T5 system camera, black

Fujifilm X-T5 Black - New sensor and more power

Fuji's camera line-up is finally starting to make a clear distinction, with the X-T5 being almost purely for the active amateur photographer, X-H2 a professional stylist and an excellent hybrid camera, and X-H2S again the perfect video camera and an extremely fast sports and nature photographer's tool. The X-T5 is a wonderful jigsaw puzzle with the curved screen of the Fuji X-T3, the battery and viewfinder of the X-T4 and the processor and sensor from the X-H2. The camera is batch sized and the fresh 40MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 5 HR BSI sensor produces distortion-free images. The size is comparable to the X-T1 and lighter than its predecessor, the X-T4. The classic design is topped off with retro-inspired physical dials that will naturally divide opinion but for those who like it, this is a must-have. Seven stop image stabilisation, Pixel Shift Multi-Shot mode that produces 160 megapixel files and a shutter speed of a staggering 1/180000. The X-T5 is a decent video processor too, up to 6.2K 4:2:” 10-bit internally or 12-bit ProRes RAW/BlackMagic RAW via HDMI.

There's no lack of speed and you can whip up to 15 frames per second with a mechanical shutter or 20 with an electronic one.

The large OLED viewfinder is equipped with 3.69 million dots. The 0.8 X magnification makes viewing the image comfortable.

Compact camera body with proper controls

The processing has also been improved. For example, the four-way buttons on the rear have been raised and a special joystick control has been added to make it easier to adjust the active AF point. The classic shutter speed and sensitivity dials have also been raised and fitted with a lock button that can be switched on/off with just one press. The three-inch screen can be tilted in three directions; up and down when shooting horizontally and up when the camera is turned vertically. Two memory card slots. Both have support for SD cards in the UHS-II capacity class. Wireless image transfer is possible via the camera's built-in Wi-Fi. It can also be used to control the X-T5 from a smartphone/tablet via the FUJIFILM Camera Remote app.

Add to this FUJIFILM's wide range of accessories - well over 20 lenses from ultra-wide angle to super wide angle, four flashes and two different grips, and there are few subjects or situations that are too difficult for the new FUJIFILM X-T5.
