Fujifilm X-T5 + Sigma AF 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary silver

Familiar retro charm and state-of-the-art technology are once again combined by Fujifilm in the new X-T5. As usual, the Fujifilm X-T5 also offers an APS-C sensor with the popular film simulation, which allows 19 different simulations.

The X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor of the Fujifilm X-T5

The new sensor of Fujifilm offers not only strong 40.2 MP but sensor already made its way into the Fujifilm X-H2. Thus, this stacked sensor is able to record up to 8K video and offers a particularly high continuous shooting of 40 frames per second. The high-resolution CMOS sensor does not require an optical low-pass filter, which, among other things, counteracts moiré. This is because the special arrangement of the pixels on the sensor helps to reduce the formation of moiré.

This new pixel structure also contributes to the sensor's ability to store a larger amount of light, so the sensor's default sensitivity is now ISO 125. The X-T5 offers a very fast shutter speed of 1/180.00 with electronic shutter. This shutter speed makes it possible to work with an open aperture in almost any situation, allowing plenty of room for creativity.

The ISO range of the Fujifilm X-T5 goes from 125-12,800 and up to 51,200 in the extended range, so there's nothing standing in the way of your next nighttime photo session.

Not only does the X-T5's sensor have a lot going for it, but it also has an IBIS, which provides the sensor with five-axis stabilization. This IBIS offers up to 7 stops of image stabilization. With this, it is not only possible to film very well, but also to photograph well in darker situations.

Another exciting feature of the Fujifilm X-T5 is the Pixel Shift Multishot with which it is possible to shoot 160 MP shots that are ultra-high resolution and thanks to the built-in IBIS also easily possible. When using the function, 20 pictures are taken. During these 20 shots, the IBIS shifts the sensor by half a pixel each to capture every red, green and blue pixel. This creates a perfect image without demosicing artifacts or color errors.

The Fuji X-T5's autofocus performance

The autofocus is not only very fast and once again more reliable thanks to the new X Processor 5, but it has also made some advances in subject detection. The subject detection captures many different subjects such as: Birds, cars, bikes, airplanes, bicycles, motorcycles or people reliably and keeps them in focus. Low light autofocus also offers good & reliable performance down to -7 EV with phase autofocus. Overall, the X-T5 has received some more improved autofocus algorithms and offers very high reliability around portrait, landscape & co.

The new X-Processor 5

The new X-Processor 5 built into the X-T5 is twice as fast as its predecessor, the X-Processor 4 not only offers reduced power consumption, allowing you to take even more shots. In addition, the X-Processor 5 offers HEIF support and improved AI-assisted signal processing.

Retro nostalgia with film simulation

The X-T5 offers 19 digital film simulation modes that reproduce the distinctive look of classic Fujifilm photographic films developed for over 85 years. These modes capture the distinctive hues, shades and nuances for which Fujifilm is so famous, adding a unique touch to your photography.

Video features of the X-T5

Up to 6.2k at 30 frames per second: that's what the Fuji X-T5 gives you at 4:2:2 and 10-bit color depth. Want to shoot 4K footage? The X-T5 films up to 59.94p at 4K and in Full HD up to 240p. For those who value RAW format, external RAW recording is available via HDMI. Also in the camera is the F-Log2 format, which offers up to 13+ stops of dynamic range.

The Fujifilm X-T5 Body

The retro nostalgia of the Fujifilm X-T5 not only offers an excellent feel and a reminder of analog times, but also Power Delivery via USB-C and a Micro HDMI port in addition to two built-in UHS-II SD card slots. The Fuji also scores in terms of robustness: With its weather-resistant body, it is possible to work even in wet conditions. And even if it gets colder, the Fujifilm works at up to -10°C. With a weight of 557g, the camera is also interesting for those for whom weight is an issue.

Telephoto Lens 56mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary. This Lens is compact, lightweight and yet has exceptional image quality. Thanks to SIGMA's breakthrough technologies, this Lens offers exactly the level of bokeh and superb speed that can be expected from F1.4 lenses in the mid-telephoto range. This lens completes the fast series that now consists of portable wide-angle, standard and telephoto lenses.

About the Lens Designation
SIGMA lenses with the "DC" designation are high-performance lenses designed specifically for digital cameras with shooting sensors up to APS-C format. When used on cameras with larger sensors, vignetting occurs. Here, photographers are recommended to adjust the sensor format for optimal image results, as far as the camera allows. SIGMA lenses with the "DN" designation are designed to provide superior performance on mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras with a short flange focal length.

1. Impressively compact design with image quality that rivals SIGMA's Art product line.
To achieve such a compact design, the lens construction has been matched to the capabilities of the camera function to best correct vignetting and distortion. In addition, axial chromatic aberrations, which are difficult to correct during image processing, are efficiently corrected by using an SLD glass element. This Lens features a compact and lightweight design combined with outstanding image quality.

2. The only line of three F1.4 AF lenses for Sony mirrorless E-mount cameras with APS-C format sensors
The Lens benefits from an F1.4 open aperture to deliver effective bokeh and amazing brightness even on APS-C format cameras, which tend to have less pronounced bokeh compared to full-frame systems. The compact and lightweight body is perfect for everyday use and shooting
a wide variety of scenes, from portraits to candid shots to night scenes.

3. Smooth AF for Video Shooting
Combining an optical setup for AF video shooting with the use of a stepper motor enables smooth and quiet autofocus. The Lens is also compatible with Sony E-mount Fast Hybrid AF and provides precise AF tracking. Using the cameras' Face Detection or Eye AF functions, focus remains continuously on the face or eye, even if the subject moves during the shot.

Lens Features:
DG Lenses
SIGMA's DG lenses are designed for demanding use on digital cameras with sensors up to 24x36mm (colloquially known as full-frame). The use of state-of-the-art coating processes successfully eliminates ghosting caused by reflections on the sensor surface, while at the same time achieving balanced colors and superior optical performance.
Since these lenses also illuminate the 24x36mm analog film format, their use is also possible on some suitable analog cameras, although we ask that you consult us on a case-by-case basis.

DN Lenses
High-performance lenses designed exclusively for mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras. The latest technology in lens development ensures high optical performance, compact design and quiet autofocus. Excellent telecentricity guarantees sharp and high-resolution image quality across the entire image plane.
