Fujifilm X-T5 + XF 27mm f/2.8 R WR black

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.

The viewfinder and the display of the Fujifilm X-T5

FUJINON XF27mm F2.8 R WR Pancake Lens
The FUJINON XF27mmF2.8 R WR is a compact and weather-resistant pancake lens for mirrorless system cameras of the FUJIFILM X series. The focal length of 27mm (equivalent to 40mm KB) creates an image effect comparable to human visual impression. The lens offers a wide range of applications, from snapshots to portraits and landscape photography.

Ultra-compact and weatherproof - The FUJINON XF27mm F2.8 R WR pancake lens
With the FUJINON XF27mm F2.8 R WR, FUJIFILM adds a low-profile pancake lens to the X series line-up. The focal length of 27mm (equivalent to 41mm KB) creates an image effect comparable to the human visual impression, making it suitable for a wide range of photographic tasks, from snapshots to portraits and landscape photography. Its compact design, high image quality and weather-resistant body make the lens an ideal everyday companion.

Easy-to-read aperture ring
The aperture ring of the new XF27mm F2.8 R WR features an easy-to-read scale. Users can see the set value at a glance without having to look through the viewfinder or at the camera's display. A lock function allows the aperture ring to be locked at the "Auto" position to prevent accidental adjustment while shooting.*

Splash and Dust Proof Body
The XF27mmF2.8 R WR is also suitable for use in inclement weather and adverse conditions. Seven seals protect the inside of the Lens from splashing water and dust, and ensure its readiness for use in cold conditions down to minus 10 degrees Celsius.

Flat and lightweight
The focal length of the XF27mm F2.8 R WR is almost identical to the diameter of the image circle required to fully cover the APS-C sensor (28.4 mm). This allows for an ultra-slim

lens with high image quality.
The XF27mm F2.8 R WR is among the smallest and lightest lenses in the XF series. It measures just 62mm in diameter and is exceptionally handy at just 23mm in length. It is also very light at around 84 grams, making it the ideal choice for situations that call for the most compact equipment and the least amount of luggage.

High image quality and fast autofocus
Despite its low-profile design, the optical construction of the new Lens includes seven elements in five groups, including an aspherical lens for correcting optical errors such as spherical aberrations and distortion. Because of this design, the XF27mm F2.8 R WR offers high resolving power, even when the aperture is fully open.

The XF27mmF2.8 R WR features a powerful AF motor for fast and precise automatic focusing. Common aberrations when shooting subjects close up or far away are effectively corrected by the five elements of the front lens group. High image quality is thus guaranteed over the entire focus range.

* The aperture ring lock at the "A" position is activated by turning the aperture ring from "F16" to "A" and released by simultaneously pressing the unlock button and turning "A" to "F16".
