Putting Photography First, X-T5 uses 40 megapixels in a stripped-back, stills-focused form factor, creative potential is broader than ever. When it comes to image quality, Fujifilm’s signature analogue filmic look is retained, with an astounding level of added detail. Should more ever be needed, simply engage Pixel Shift Multi-Shot mode for 160-megapixel images.
The back-illuminated sensor is joined by X-Processor 5, combining to enable a host of exceptional features. A previously extended ISO 125 is now native, while shutter speeds extend to 1/180,000 sec. Even in the brightest conditions, fast apertures remain in play.
In more dimly lit settings, or for rapid handheld photography, seven-stops of IBIS are sure to mean fewer missed frames. Despite the five-axis stabilising structure, X-T5’s size and weight remain conveniently low. In fact, it’s smaller than its predecessor and weighs just 557g. Tactile, external controls and programmable buttons are present, as ever – joined by a 3.69 million dot EVF and 1.84 million dot, three-way tilting LCD. It’s even ruggedly weather sealed.
Creation is supported further by cutting-edge deep learning technology. Automatic white balance has seen a significant boost in accuracy – as has autofocus performance. A wide range of subjects, including faces, animals and vehicles, can be detected and tracked without disruption. In AF-S mode, high-frequency targets are easier to lock onto than ever.
While some post-production work is a crucial part of any advanced image maker’s process, a streamlined workflow is never amiss. Advanced X-T5 features, like Smooth Skin Effect, complete essential post steps in-camera. There are also 19 Film Simulation modes to choose from, including Nostalgic Neg., for gorgeous JPEGs – though HEIF image format is also available, for 10-bit quality in a 30% smaller file.
Despite being stills focus, X-T5’s video capabilities are nothing less than professional. Hybrid or dedicated video creatives can rely upon 6.2K 30P internal recording, in 4:2:2 10-bit colour. When less is more, try oversampled 4K HQ footage. There’s also a new F-Log2 with 13+ stops of dynamic range and 12-bit Apple ProRes RAW external recording.

ACROS
Based on ACROS, a monochrome film renowned for super-fine grain, this Film Simulation
mode delivers rich shadow details and excellent sharpness, while still adding grain at high
ISOs, and recreating the stunning textured feel of monochrome.
Eterna / Cinema
Based on ETERNA, a film designed for motion pictures, this Film Simulation mode
minimizes saturation to ensure no color overpowers another. It provides extremely soft
tonal gradation in highlights, and deep shadows to prevent clipping, reproducing a
cinematic look.
Provia / Standard
Based on FUJICHROME PROVIA, a reversal film designed for professional use, this Film
Simulation mode is great for all subject types, offering a neutral color reproduction.
Velvia / VIVID
Based on FUJICHROME Velvia, an ultra-vivid reversal film designed for professionals, this
Film Simulation mode provides richer and more high-contrast colors than the
PROVIA/STANDARD. It is a favourite of landscape photographers.

Simulation mode prioritizes soft and faithful reproduction of skin tones, while also
depicting vivid blue skies and greenery.
Classic Chrome
This Film Simulation mode is designed to reproduce a look similar to documentary
magazines of the 20th century. Its low-saturation and hard tonal gradation in shadows
make it a perfect choice for documentary photography with a touch of realism.
Classic Neg
Based on SUPERIA, a color negative film loved by generations of photographers, this Film
Simulation mode provides high-contrast tonal gradation. It adds depth and definition to
colors by adjusting their shades in highlights and shadows, while reducing saturation.
Nostalgic Neg
Designed to recreate the look of images in old photo albums, Nostalgic Neg. produces
images with rich colors in the shadows - and a soft tonality through the midtones and
highlights.
White Balance
Fine adjustments can be made to Auto White Balance (AWB) by selecting one of three modes: Auto, White Priority, and Ambience Priority. Set to White Priority, white is more likely to be reproduced as white under incandescent lighting. However, when Ambience Priority is set, scenes will be photographed with the natural lighting characteristics of the scene preseved. Under incandescent lighting, this will generally result in images with warmer white tones.
