Fujifilm X-T5 body + Sigma 30mm f1.4 DC DN (C)

Fujifilm X-T5

The FUJIFILM X-T5 offers photographers a perfect total package: It features fifth-generation imaging technology - the rear-illuminated 40.2-megapixel X-Trans*1 CMOS 5 HR sensor and the fast X-Processor 5 - and offers built-in five-axis image stabilization over up to seven stops (EV)*2. Despite its tremendous performance, it is smaller and also lighter than its predecessor, weighing just 557 grams.*3

Like previous models in the X-T line, the X-T5 features a center-mounted electronic viewfinder and several large command dials. Inside, it offers a host of technical innovations, including a standard sensitivity of ISO 125, a fastest shutter speed of 1/180,000 sec, the "Pixel Shift Multi-Shot" function, and Scene Recognition AF based on Deep Learning technology that identifies and tracks various subjects (such as animals or vehicles).

Videos are recorded by the X-T5 in up to 6.2K/30p quality

. The

high-resolution foldable touchscreen monitor and dual memory card slot round out the new camera's features.

The

X-T5 is the ideal tool for demanding photographers who travel a lot and don't want to compromise on image quality

. It is

as handy as it is versatile, and is ideal for fast reportage and street photography as well as high-quality landscape and portrait photography

.

High-resolution X-Trans CMOS 5 HR Sensor and X-Processor 5

The

X-T5 is equipped with a rear-exposed 40.2-megapixel X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor that delivers very high resolution without distracting image noise, resulting in overall brilliant image quality

.

An advanced pixel structure results in a greater amount of light on the sensor, so that ISO 125 is now available as the standard sensitivity and no longer needs to be selected via the extended ISO range. The

new sensor can also be driven with extreme precision, allowing ultra-short exposure times

.

For example, the fastest shutter speed of the electronic shutter has been increased by 2.5 EV steps from 1/32,000 sec. to now 1/180,000 sec.

The new sensor opens up new creative possibilities, especially when shooting in bright environments

. For

example, on sunny summer days or on the ski slopes, you can achieve the attractive bokeh effect with the aperture open, or freeze fast movements in maximum sharpness with ultra-fast shutter speeds

.

Innovative photo functions

With the "Pixel Shift Multi-Shot" function, the camera takes 20 high-resolution images in succession in raw data format, with the image sensor being shifted minimally after each exposure. The resulting individual photos can be combined into a single image file with a resolution of 160 megapixels using the free "Pixel Shift Combiner" software. This function is particularly interesting for photographic documentation and digitization in the fields of art and culture, as well as for high-quality still life and product shots. The

camera features the "Skin Effect Soft" function for particularly attractive reproduction of skin tones. Post-processing time for portrait shots is significantly reduced, so high-quality image results are available faster than ever. The

X-T5 is equipped with automatic white balance based on Deep Learning technology. The camera more accurately detects different light sources (such as incandescent lamps) and adjusts white balance accordingly.

The

X-T5 offers 19 film simulations, including "Nostalgic Negative" for high color saturation and smooth tonal gradations. It supports the HEIF image format, which delivers 10-bit image files that are up to 30 percent smaller than standard JPEG files.

With the

inclusion of this feature, FUJIFILM underscores its reputation for delivering the very highest quality images directly from X Series cameras

.

Built-in Image Stabilizer and Intelligent Autofocus

In-camera five-axis image stabilization (IBIS) compensates for camera movement over up to seven stops (EV)*2. Even at night, at dusk, or in other low-light situations, freehand shooting is possible. The IBIS mechanism simultaneously enables the "Pixel Shift Multi-Shot" function via high-precision shifting of the image sensor.

The

X-T5 is equipped with an innovative autofocus system that allows the person taking the picture to focus entirely on the subject and composition. She can trust the camera to focus reliably and precisely on the subject. For example, the X-T5's autofocus system offers object-oriented subject recognition based on artificial intelligence. Developed using Deep Learning technology, the algorithm not only detects and tracks people's faces and eyes, but also reliably keeps animals, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, airplanes and trains in focus.

The 40.2-megapixel X-Trans CMOS 5 HR has more phase-detection pixels than previous X-series image sensors, resulting in even more precise focusing in AF-S mode, for example in landscape or portrait photography. A new AF algorithm for predicting object movement enables even more reliable focus tracking in continuous focus (AF-C)

.

Convenient operation

There are

three dials on the top of the X-T5 for shutter speed, ISO sensitivity and exposure compensation. Like the aperture ring on many XF lenses, they allow control of key exposure parameters even when the camera is off. The X-T5 thus becomes the ideal tool for transferring one's creative intuition directly into the image production process. The

new LCD monitor offers a resolution of 1.84 million pixels and can be swiveled in three directions

.

When shooting from the hip or overhead, for example, the display remains in the optical axis and is always easy to read, allowing comfortable and unrestricted work even in demanding shooting situations. The

electronic viewfinder of the X-T5 offers a high-resolution viewfinder image with 3.69 million pixels and 0.8x magnification

.

The image is optimally corrected and free of parallax errors and distortion that otherwise often appear with changes in eye position. The

advancement of the IBIS mechanism, electronic viewfinder and other components allows for a compact and lightweight design

.

Despite its performance, the camera weighs just 557 grams*4. In addition, handling has been optimized and the operability of the dials and buttons has been improved. The weatherproof body can be used in humid and dirty environments without hesitation

.

Advanced video capabilities

The X-T5 records video in 6.2K/30p 4:2:2 10-bit format. In 4K HQ mode, the camera draws on the detail of the 6.2K data during internal oversampling to generate a 4K image of superior quality. The X-T5 supports F-Log2, which provides an expanded dynamic range of more than 13 stops, offering further creative potential in video editing.

When combined with a compatible Atomos external HDMI recorder, 12-bit RAW video files can also be recorded and saved as Apple ProRes RAW*5 in 6.2K at frame rates up to 29.97 frames per second. When used with the Blackmagic Design Video Assist 12G series monitor recorders, raw video files can be saved as Blackmagic RAW in up to 6.2K quality and 29.97 frames per second

Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary

The fast standard lens SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary lets mirrorless camera users experience the fun of shooting with a maximum aperture of F1.4. Particularly appealing are the beautiful bokeh that can only be achieved with a fast lens, and the exceptionally precise optical performance that characterizes a top-of-the-line fixed focal length lens. Our latest technologies and design considerations, characteristic of the Contemporary product line concept, are well balanced in this new lens,

a fixed focal length lens that offers an angle of view similar to that of the human eye at approximately 50mm and a speed of F1.4. The shallow depth of field at full aperture offers photographers ideal conditions for fascinating portraits and still lifes. For landscape shots or snapshots, a smaller aperture with greater depth of field can be selected. Standard lenses offer a wide range of photographic applications and have therefore been part of photographers' basic equipment for decades. This standard lens offers a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 45mm on the Fuji X system.

Sigma Lenses with the "DC" designation offer optimal performance on cameras with APS-C image sensors. Using a DC lens on a camera with a full-frame image sensor will inevitably cause vignetting. For optimal results, match the active image field of the sensor to the image circle of the lens. SIGMA lenses with the "DN" designation offer optimal performance in conjunction with cameras with a short flange focal length
