Thank you for all of your content!! I’ve learned so much from all of your videos while starting out with a used xt20. Just received my Xt5 yesterday and am so excited to enter the next phase of my super amateur street photo journeys. Can’t wait for all of your amazing upcoming Xt5 related content 🙂

I can't wait to get the X-T5. It reminds me of the X-T2. IBIS is the only thing I wanted the most. I had the X-T4 but it was a bit too big and heavy... I didn't know that I prefer the flip up screen more than the flip out. Because shooting from the hip it's better to have the screen centered, where the lens is also pointed at, instead of looking at the left side of you.

I had a x100v all dressed up with the hood and all that. I really enjoyed that camera. It introduced me into the Fuji world. It also eventually had your channel pop up in my suggested videos to watch a few months ago. I over time decided the fixed focal length is fun but just not for me and my needs. I listed it and sold it within 45 minutes on a forum. Then went down to my local camera store and he just got a shipment of various xt5 combos so I picked up the silver xt5/16-80 kit. I really for some reason struggled with 16-80 or the 18-55 kit but ended up getting the 16-80 kit. I am heavily invested in the Nikon Z world and love it as well. My main kit is usually my z9. I was not that enthusiastic about the zfc as I was the DF when I got it back in the day. So, Fuji is kind of filling that gap. Thank you for the great videos, love the channel and the sense of humor you bring to your videos.

The reduction is size and weight on paper is not much but noticeable after my XT4 in the field. The return to the tilt screen is most welcome. And the accuracy and speed of the AF, as you say, is an improvement. As always, nice first impression.

The best thing I truly like about this camera is the screen . I’m a photographer and have no interest in video and whilst I understand the draw to including it, I am also unimpressed by the megapixel count because I do not think we need that . If a high res option was included then that might have some value to a non pro user . Therefore , I can see a lot of reasons to stick with a XT 1 or 2 if a stills user . That said , I find a lot to love about this camera . As for the packaging , this is perhaps to reduce waste and landfill ; if that were true , what is it with all that plastic ha ha. Lovely video Omar ! Thanks once again

I'm still loving my XT1 with battery grip, it's a nice little camera and I love the look of that Xtrans2 sensor. Also still loving my XH1 with grip, great ergos when you use it with the larger lenses like 16-55. But for me the Fuji to end all Fujis is the Xpro3, absolutely adore that guy, quite likely the best street photography camera ever made (second place goes to X100V).

I got an x-h2 to get the 40 meg sensor, but i'm only planning to keep it until the x-pro4 comes out. I prefer the "rangefinder" style bodies, but I can survive with a PASM dial for a while. Having the x-h2 is like carrying around a rock: indestructible, heavy. It's very very solid.

Just used the XT-5 for street photography using electronic shutter - necessary if you want to use the "preshot-ES" to catch precise moments of a running or walking subject. The rolling shutter made almost all of the shots unusable, even with a walking subject. I suppose that's a function of the high data burden of a 40MP sensor. Made me nostalgic for how great that function was on an old Lumix GX85 micro 4/3.

I’ve only ever had the x-t30, and I am still able to take great pictures with it. I’ve got a lot more to learn in terms of basic photography techniques before I would consider getting a new body. But if I were getting one and had the money, the x-t5 would be for me. Dials for exposure and focus mode, more hand grip depth but less size, flippy screen, and the latest in af, film sims, and battery performance. The added video capabilities and larger sensor would be icing on the cake given my needs. I find the x-t5 design encouraging and hope they continue with this vision for the x-t series so that when I am ready for a new body it will be all that the x-t5 is but more. (And in the meantime I’d love some af and menu kaizen for my x-t30!)

I just got my XT5, and so far I like it a lot. It feels much smaller than the XT4, even though it's really just a few millimeters different; It must have to do with subtile changes in the shape. Have to say that I'm a little pissed off that several manufacturers, including Fuji, have stopped including chargers with their cameras. Seems to me like a stealthy way to increase to price of the camera by $50 to &70. No charger means that if the battery goes flat the camera is out of service while it charges.

Thanks Omar for all of your content. I upgraded from the X-T3 to the X-T5. It arrived on Thursday. Shot some images around the neighborhood. I was excited to use the Nostalgic Negative film simulation. After shooting I uploaded them into Lightroom Classic v12.01 with Camera Raw v15. After import I clicked on the first photo in the Develop module. The profile said "Provia". Humm I thought a mistake was made during import. Pulled down the profile browser and well that's when I discovered that not only was Nostalgic Negative missing from Camera Matching profiles but so were Classic Negative, Eterna Bleach Bypass and Sepia. Went back to the Library module to check metadata and Yes the X-T5 along with its serial number and the XF 33mm f/1.4 lens were cited in the Library. Couldn't believe it. So I plugged in my X-T5 to the computer and started up X Raw Studio. Yep X Raw had photo listed with Nostalgic Negative plus when I checked all the sims were listed as well in the app. Next just to be sure I went to Capture One 23 and added the shots I took to it and yes those came in on the Auto setting as Nostalgic Negative. I'm not sure If I am the only one who has discovered this error on LRC. I haven't seen any google results for missing camera profiles in LRC. I just wanted to know if you have discovered the same error in LRC? How soon will it be before Adobe fixes that?

@christopherbgriffith Жыл бұрын

Yes! Picked mine up yesterday. The hardest decision was the color. I have a silver X-T3 and a black X-T2. Ultimately went silver. Only shot a little with it so far, but I noticed two things right off the bat. First is that the AF on the new 33mm lens is basically instant. The second is that the IBIS is so good for lower shutter speeds to keep the ISO down. I was taking 1/60 shots of my kids watching TV last night in dim conditions and the photos were crisp and had less noise (even at 1250 ISO). I like the beefier grip as I’ve gotten accustomed to using the X-T3 with its grip all the time. I’ll probably buy the overpriced little metal hand grip just to fill it out a bit more, and I got a second battery to have on hand. Super excited to use this at family gatherings over the holidays. I felt like the 4 was very much not for me and this one feels like it was worth the wait.

How is the shutter speed dial, does it go in 1/3 increments? I have an old X-E2, where the shutter speed dial goes in whole stop increments (like 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250,...). This has made me set it to T, a position which allows me to set the shutter speed to any intermediate 1/3-stop value using the thumb dial on the back of the camera. The result is that the big mechanical shutter speed dial on top of the camera is never used for anything other than contributing to vintage look.

I'm still hanging to the X-T20, I still think it's an amazing camera that fits inside my pocket. However, there's a lot to love about the X-T5, including the film simulations. I thought I'd have an impulse buy with the X-H2, but this body just made that impulse buy redundant. This is going to be my upcoming upgrade for sure!

Unfortunately a miss for this time round with no grip option, I like the ability of choice especially with longer lenses or extended portrait orientation shooting, but each to their own.

We pre-ordered the X-T5 which we received on release day, having used (and still are using) X-T3s it was an immediate wow in terms of focus speed and quality. We will still be using both XT-5 and XT-3 for a lot of the work we do in studio with the camera tethered, I don't need 2 card slots, WR, or a lot of the other features so an X-T50 would be a great 2nd body to work with the X-T5 but as far as i know, the X-Txx series does not support tethered shooting which would mean it is unusable for our instant print events (camera - wifi to computer - straight to 8"x6" printer all without cables) The X-T5 is a massive upgrade for our photographer that shoots birds and wildlife first day he was raving about how good the tracking was, and how much more cropping he can do from the 40MP files. For our studio portraits where the frame is filled and normally only printed up to 18" x 12" the 26MP files are more than enough, however shooting video without a gimble and the extra weight is appealing but not £1700 appealing right now to buy another X-T5 when we are happy with the 4K from the T3s

I am waiting "patiently" for my X-T5 to arrive. Pretty excited they have basically taken the guts of X-H2 and put it in an X-T3 body (mostly...). I really loved my X-T3 and was always a bit sad that it never got the full firmware upgrade to get the same film simulations, white balance menu, and a few other things the X-T4 had when they both had same processor and sensor. I am sure fuji had their reasons, I just hope it wasn't only to differentiate for sales reasons....maybe there is some subtle technical reason. Anyhoo.... yeah, can't wait for my box to have a second body, making the X-T5 my main and have X-T3 for a backup and to also introduce my daughters into the photography hobby. :D

Hey guys! I've just bought an XT-5, which is great, but I've just noticed that the *uncompressed* RAF files which it produces do not display preview images in MacOS Finder or Preview - my old X-T3 RAFs still display preview images, but not the X-T5 ones. Any ideas?

Sorry to bother you folks but I’m a dad who takes tons of pictures of his kid in soccer , volleyball and track and use a Fuji xt2. Is it worth it for me to jump up to the xt5? Mainly use the 50-140 XF lens and use a teleconverter on bright days for more reach. Thanks

Hi Omar - curious if this changes your mode of work. I remember another video where you explained why you don't use Fujifilm for your work. Would this change your mind? Or are you still sporting the Z6ii for events? Seems the X-T5 might have a nice in the event photography space. I'm considering buying but the x-t30ii is fine for what I do. Those 40mp are alluring though so I might eventually give in.

Mine arrived last week. I upgraded from the XT-3 (which was an upgrade from the XT-1, so I guess my next is the XT-7 ;-). Wonder when we'll be able to do HDMI over USB-C off Cameras like we do off laptops (or maybe it does it and I just didn't try it)).

I love your videos, IMO you're among the best on YT. And, I'd like to gently point out there are a significant number of photographers who do not do video on their cameras. Ever. Strictly photography only. For us, shooting video is what iPhones are for. It'd be nice to have a little more stills photography centric material in reviews and camera grading. Thanks.

The strap. Right. I got one of those with some prior Fuji camera. Maybe as far back as my X-H1. I hated this strap, but it was, “sticky,” and distributed the gross weight of the H1. I put it on my X-T4 and realized it was great as an over the shoulder instead of around the neck strap. 🎉The rubbery surface keeps it on your shoulder unless you’re wearing a silk shirt, so don’t do that. I also realized that carrying my camera over my shoulder instead of around my neck was a far more practical way to carry it. The problem in the past was the camera would slip off my shoulder. Not so with this strap. I went from hating to now loving it. And my neck is much happier.

This is the T for me, finally. I chose the X-H1 over the X-T3 in late 2019 because I wanted IBIS and I got a good deal on it with the battery grip etc. Haven't really been happy with it, though. Got an X100V two years ago but, as much as I love to have the camera around me and in my hands, it's just not right and I dearly miss IBIS. So I'm now going to sell both my X-H1 and the X100V which would allow me to purchase an X-T5. This thing's got it all. Amazing on the inside and a classic look on the outside. Can't wait!

I’ve just upgraded to X-T5 from X-T4. Whereas in the X-T4 the peaking highlights would disappear when the shutter button was half pressed, in the X-T5 the highlights linger. When there’s a lot of foliage this is a problem, because the highlights obscure the scene while shooting, Is there a setting I have missed?

Just about to order my X-T3, super excited for the switch to Fuji, coming from Sony.. Hope the X-T3 will be great for many years! Gonna use it for family photos and video with some kind of 23 or 35mm lens📸 Hope I don’t get FOMO for not going for the newest and most shiny model, but couldn’t justify paying almost 3 times the price.

Omar Hive, off topic as usual but on topic is like a 2yo video. Omar Hive, not even sure this will pop up. Just ordered the XT30ii with kit lens for street photography and portraits in the city all times of day.Liked the form factor and the tilt screen for possible hip shooting. Am I crazy for not spending the xtra 100 for a better camera in the xs10.Have OIS in kit lens but Ibis for $100 more. Too much stock in IBIS? Can kind of shoot at hip with screen swing out. Too much stock in the tilt screen and tiny bit more camera in your face grip? Can always use and return but wanted some peoples thoughts. Thanks all. I know I’m answering my own ??? Here. Happy holidays all!!!
