Fujifilm X-T5 Mirrorless Digital Camera Body - Silver

I owned the Nikon Z6 and the Panasonic S5 Mark II, and this camera seems to have better features for stills photographers like me, weighs less and is a more compact system. I do like that they have the manual controls on the top, although those dials are quite small and sometimes can be tipped accidentally, but at least they can be locked down using the button on top of each one of them. The exposure dial is a bit cumbersome I wish they would have a thumb wheel for that and perhaps just a digital exposure indicator on the top instead of the large, yet somehow too small dial. I do love the 40 megapixel resolution it works great with my Sigma 23mm f 1.4 lens, although I think I will get a 30 mm Fujifilm lens instead since I want the 45mm equivalent focal length instead of the 35mm equivalent focal length. I like how when pressing the back dial it zooms in to your image, very handy when reviewing images and checking how the close-up resolution has turned up. I have got my best pictures from this camera even though I had two full frame cameras before this, the last one was with a F4 zoom (probably the best 24-105mm f/4) and the one before that (Nikon 24-200) was a variable one that went up to f6.3, and because I am enjoying the limitations that prime lenses give me and the superior quality, even superior to full frame when going against full frame zoom lenses that go to F4 or f 6.3. I was skeptical about using film simulations, but it turns out, I like the nostalgic negative film simulation the best on the LCD screen so far. Hand switching the drive mode lever on the left side to the HDR position quickly enables you to take HDR 800 pictures if say you need that for landscape or something, preferably with a tripod though, since those take multiple exposures together, so they might not work for hand holding shots of detailed objects as much as hand holding using a single exposure. Now the film simulations and the HDR photograph pertain to the jpegs although right now most pros are using raw, but for regular usage, especially sharing with family members, the jpegs are much more versatile and useful, although I also save the raw just in case I ever want to edit the most important pictures let's say.

For context I've had a Fuji X mount camera since the X-T1. Most recently upgraded from the X-T30 to the X-T4 and now the X-T5. The bad first: It isn't as good as an autofocus as other camera lines. It is the best in Fuji's line of cameras, the same as the X-H2 and 2s. The material it is made out of feels cheaper and more brittle than the X-T4, but better the the X-T30. This is probably how they got the weight down from the X-T4, reduced body size and thinner less dense materials. It feels strong enough to do the job. The ergonomics haven't changed with few exceptions. I have bigger hands, and require a grip accessory to properly hold most X mount camera's. Even the X-S10 and X-H bodies feel small. I miss that the X-T5 will not have a battery grip option. But it's definitely not a deal breaker. Most lenses are balanced on the X-T5 body. The bigger lenses like the XF80, 90 and the new viltrox 75 for example also balance fairly well on the body, even though it is smaller than the X-T4. The pixel shift multishot 160MP feature just does not work. I've tried for several weeks to get it to work and it doesn't. I have a well lit environment, with static objects, and a tripod. The images that the software produce always have errors, and they either output a smaller 14MP file or wont render at all. I haven't gotten any help online about this, and I figure a future firmware update might fix this. I don't know, but I feel like this is a huge let down about this camera. Now for the good: Amazing image quality, even with older (that don't resolve the full 40MP) lenses. I do a lot of landscape and general outdoor photography, but even with portraits. The extra definition you get lets you be more free with compositions; I can use a wider lens and crop or when doing a headshot I just have more to work with overall. The camera body wont be the bottleneck for image quality. I worry some 3rd party lenses wont resolve the entire 40MP. The IBIS is just ever so slightly better than the X-T4. Honestly I couldn't tell a difference. The back panel is back to the X-T3 style and I couldn't be happier. I hate having a flip out screen on my photography camera. I'm not a youtube creator. I'm behind the camera, not in front of it. There are more affordable and better options for that kind of camera (use a modern cell phone with a tripod). This is still a robust video capable camera. It handles almost exactly like the X-T4. The mechanical shutter is wonderful. The electronic shutter is very capable. There is rolling shutter, but you wont get away from that unless you get the X-H2s or change systems. TL;DR It's great at taking photo's. It's good at video. It's not everyone's preference in ergonomics, but it is more than acceptable. It has the classic X-T line of controls with no compromise to PASM users. I love my camera. If you have an X-T4, and aren't going to utilize the improvements (40MP, better IBIS, better AF) don't upgrade. If you have a camera older than the X-T4 I suggest considering a used X-T4 or a new X-T5. You wont regret either.

لا عيب في الكاميرا فهي واحدة من كاميرات فوجي المعروفة. العيب الوحيد انها جاءت غير مغلفة not sealed. قد تكون اشتراها طرف اخر ورجعها او قد تكون display لكن لاتوجد آثار استعمال سابقة. أمازون احترافي في تعامله ويعطي فترة مناسبة للارجاع لكني فضلت الاحتفاظ بالكاميرا فقد حصلت عليها بسعر جيد. شكرا أمازون .

Una increíble mejora en el AF. La quinta generacion de sensor es increíble. Lo único raro es que el material de la cámara es distinto al modelo previo, supongo lo hicieron para lograr menos peso. Una increíble cámara.

This is an absolute gem of a camera. Stands out with high quality video and pictures.

Me gusta mucho la calidad de la imagen, es una cámara que pesa poco y de aspecto retro.

I've been a photographer for over 50 years and I've owned many brands of cameras including Fujifilm. The XT-5 is a great camera in a small compact package. It's 40 mpxl sensor is amazingly detailed. I love everything about it. It's built very well. It functions very well. It looks great. It takes beautiful images. I use it easily with manual focus lenses as well as auto-focus lenses and it is a superb camera body and I would recommend it to any serious amateur or pro photographer. Its a great value for the money.
