Fujifilm X-M5 Body Black. + XF 16-55mm f2.8 R LM WR II

Fujifilm X-M5 Body black

The Fujifilm X-M5 mirrorless system camera extends the X series, which is known for its compact and lightweight design, outstanding image quality and unique color reproduction.

The X-M5 is suitable for beginners and advanced photo enthusiasts alike. Its high-quality, classic design is typical of the X series. The camera weighs only 355 grams *1, making it the lightest *2 model in the X series. It offers advanced features such as AI-assisted autofocus to detect dynamic objects like animals and cars, as well as 6.2K/30p video recording and 4:2:2 10-bit color depth.

Equipped with the 26.1 megapixel X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor*3 and the fast X Processor 5, it delivers outstanding image quality. A selection dial on the top allows you to quickly switch between different digital film simulations to give photos and videos a popular analog look. A digital image stabilizer and powerful microphones guarantee high-quality moving image recordings. The new 9:16 short film mode makes it easier to shoot vertical videos in vlog mode.

Compact and lightweight

The Fujifilm X-M5 weighs only around 355 grams and measures 111.9 mm wide, 66.6 mm high and 38.0 mm deep. It's fun to have such a light and handy mirrorless digital camera to hand at all times.

The compact camera has a high-quality finish and thus joins the model range of the X series. Symmetrically arranged control dials on the top emphasize the aesthetic appearance, while

the film simulation dial on the top left can be used to switch between a total of 20 digital film simulations depending on the subject and scene. This makes it easy to use a variety of attractive analog looks when photographing and filming.
The mode dial is located at the top right. AUTO mode is ideal for beginners to sophisticated photography. When it is activated, the camera recognizes the respective scene and automatically selects a suitable shooting mode.

High image quality and fast autofocus

The X-M5 has an X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor with 26.1 megapixels and rear exposure as well as the latest high-speed image processor X-Processor 5.

In addition to the existing face and eye autofocus, the camera offers a scene recognition autofocus based on deep learning technology. The camera uses artificial intelligence to recognize animals, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, planes, trains, insects and drones.*4

The new AF algorithm enables better prediction of object movements. The camera thus offers precise tracking of dynamic objects and accurate autofocus even with low-contrast subjects.

High-resolution videos

The X-M5 can record high-resolution 6.2K videos at 30 frames per second and 4:2:2 10-bit color quality directly onto the inserted SD card. It supports many other video modes such as 4K recording at 60 frames per second for a smoother presentation of dynamic scenes or Full HD slow motion at 240 frames per second.

The camera is equipped with powerful digital image stabilization. It not only compensates for slight camera shake, but also for strong movements, such as those caused by walking while filming

. The X-M5 is the first camera in the X series to have three built-in microphones. You can choose between four directional characteristic options: Surround, Front, Rear and Front & Rear. The camera is also the first to feature acoustic noise reduction, which filters out annoying continuous noise during recording - for example the background noise caused by air conditioning.

Vlog mode allows users to intuitively change the recording conditions via the LCD touchscreen. Improved icons and their optimized arrangement make video recording even easier. The new 9:16 short movie mode makes it easier than ever to record high-quality vertical videos for social media.

Bit rates of 8 Mbps and 25 Mbps can now also be selected in the media recording settings to speed up the transfer of videos to mobile devices and uploading to social media platforms.

Fujifilm XF 16-55mm f2.8 R LM WR II

The Fujinon XF16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR II is the successor to the popular fast standard Fujinon XF16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR lens and is the new flagship model of the XF lens range. At just 410 grams, it is a good third lighter than its predecessor. Thanks to an optimized lens configuration, it also achieves even better imaging performance over the entire Zoom range.

The lens covers the frequently used focal length range from 16 mm to 55 mm (equivalent to 24 mm to 84 mm KB) and offers a consistently high speed of F2.8. It is suitable for a wide range of subjects, such as nature, landscape and portraits. The XF16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR II is the first XF lens to feature mechanical aperture stop deactivation, which enables stepless and silent aperture control when shooting video. With its high performance and universal usability, the new lens expands the visual expression possibilities in photography and filming

. High image quality and speed

The XF16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR II offers a constant speed of F2.8 over the entire focal length range from 16mm wide-angle to 55mm telephoto (equivalent to 24mm to 84mm KB). The optical design comprises 16 elements in eleven groups, including four aspherical lenses, one Super ED lens and three ED lenses. This lens system ensures high resolution right into the corners of the image and minimizes optical colour errors (chromatic aberrations) even at large apertures.

The ultra-precise production of the aspherical lenses allows an even softer and more beautiful bokeh effect compared to the predecessor model, as disturbing ring patterns are better suppressed. The shortest focusing distance over the entire focal length range is just 0.3 meters, enabling close-ups with a magnification of up to 0.21x.

Compact and lightweight

Advanced optical technologies enable thinner lens elements, making the new lens significantly more compact and lighter. Compared to the previous model, the overall length has been reduced by around eleven millimetres and the housing volume by more than a third (approx. 37.8 %). The new model weighs only around 410 grams, which is also a good third (approx. 37.4 %) less.

The lens has a weatherproof housing. Twelve seals protect the internal components from splash water and dust. The front lens has a water and dirt-repellent fluorine coating that is easy to clean. Combined with an X series weather-sealed camera body, the lens offers reliable performance even during extended use in adverse weather conditions.

Advanced video functionality

The new mechanical iris click-stop deactivation allows you to switch to smooth and silent iris control and exposure control when shooting movies.*1 The advanced design of the lens minimizes focus breathing and thus ensures a constant image section during focusing.

Fast and quiet autofocus

Internal focusing, lightweight focus lens groups and a powerful linear motor enable fast and precise focusing in up to 0.02 seconds.
