Fujifilm X-T5 + XF16-80mm f4 R OIS WR black

Fujifilm X-T5

The FUJIFILM X-T5 offers photographers a perfect overall package: it is equipped with fifth generation image technology - the back-illuminated 40.2 megapixel X-Trans*1 CMOS 5 HR sensor and the fast X-Processor 5 - and offers integrated five-axis image stabilization over up to seven f-stops (EV)*2. Despite its enormous performance, it is smaller and, with a weight of only 557 grams, also lighter than the previous model.*3

Like the previous models in the X-T line, the X-T5 has a centrally positioned electronic viewfinder and several large control dials. Inside, it offers a variety 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 the subject recognition autofocus based on deep learning technology, which identifies and tracks various subjects (e.g. animals or vehicles).

The X-T5 records videos in up to 6.2K/30p quality. The high-resolution folding touchscreen monitor and the double memory card slot round off the features of the new camera.

The X-T5 is the ideal tool for demanding photographers who travel a lot and do not 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 for 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 back-illuminated 40.2 megapixel X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor, which delivers a very high resolution without disturbing image noise and therefore a brilliant overall image quality.

A further developed 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 has to be selected via the extended ISO range.

The new sensor can also be controlled with extreme precision, allowing ultra-short exposure times. The fastest shutter speed of the electronic shutter has been increased by 2.5 EV steps from 1/32,000 sec. to 1/180,000 sec.

The new sensor opens up new creative possibilities, especially when shooting in bright surroundings. On sunny summer days or on the ski slopes, for example, you can achieve the attractive bokeh effect with the aperture open or freeze fast movements with ultra-fast shutter speeds for maximum sharpness.

Innovative photo functions

With the "Pixel Shift Multi-Shot" function, the camera takes 20 high-resolution images one after the other in raw data format, whereby the image sensor is minimally shifted 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 photography.

The camera has the "Soft skin effect" function for a particularly attractive reproduction of skin tones. The post-processing time for portrait shots is significantly reduced, so that 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 recognizes different light sources (e.g. incandescent lamps) even more precisely and adjusts the 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. The integration of this feature underlines FUJIFILM's reputation for delivering the highest quality images directly from X Series cameras.

Built-in image stabilizer and intelligent autofocus

The 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, you can shoot freehand. The IBIS mechanism also enables the "Pixel Shift Multi-Shot" function via the high-precision shift of the image sensor.

The X-T5 is equipped with an innovative autofocus system that allows the photographer to concentrate fully on the subject and the image composition. They can trust the camera to focus reliably and precisely on the subject. The X-T5's autofocus system offers object-oriented subject recognition based on artificial intelligence. The algorithm developed using deep learning technology not only recognizes and tracks people's faces and eyes, but also reliably keeps animals, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, planes and trains in focus.

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

Convenient operation

On the top of the X-T5 there are three control dials for shutter speed, ISO sensitivity and exposure compensation. Like the aperture ring on many XF lenses, they allow the most important exposure parameters to be controlled even when the camera is switched off. This makes the X-T5 the ideal tool for transferring your own creative intuition directly into the image production process.

The new LCD monitor offers a resolution of 1.84 million pixels and can be tilted 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, so that comfortable and unrestricted working is possible 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, which otherwise often occur when the eye position changes.

The further development of the IBIS mechanism, the electronic viewfinder and other components allows a compact and lightweight design. Despite its performance, the camera weighs just 557 grams*4 and handling has been optimized, with improved operability of the dials and buttons. The weatherproof housing can also be used in damp and dirty environments without hesitation.

Advanced video functions

The X-T5 records video in 6.2K/30p 4:2:2 10-bit format. In 4K HQ mode, the camera uses the depth of detail of the 6.2K data for internal oversampling to generate a superior quality 4K image. The X-T5 supports F-Log2, which offers an extended dynamic range of more than 13 stops and thus further creative potential in video editing.

In combination 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. In conjunction with the Blackmagic Design Video Assist 12G series monitor recorders, the raw video data can be saved as Blackmagic RAW in up to 6.2K quality and 29.97 frames per second.

Fujifilm XF 16-80mm F4 R OIS WR

The Fujinon XF16-80mmF4 R OIS WR is a compact and weather-sealed Zoom lens for the Fujifilm X series mirrorless system cameras. It has a continuous aperture of F4 and covers a focal length range of 16-80mm (equivalent to 24-122mm KB). The XF16-80mm offers a minimum shooting distance of 35 cm over the entire Zoom range (maximum magnification of 0.25x). It weighs only 440 grams and is therefore around 40 percent lighter than a comparable lens for a 35 mm system. It is also very compact with a length of 88.9 mm and a diameter of 78.3 mm.

Powerful and fast

The XF16-80mmF4 R OIS WR is a 5x universal Zoom lens consisting of 16 lens elements in 12 groups. This includes three aspherical lens elements and one aspherical ED lens. The lens design ensures uniformly high imaging performance from the center to the edges and effective minimization of aberrations. The Zoom lens has an optical image stabilization system that allows up to 6 EV steps slower shutter speeds. This allows the lens to be used in a variety of situations, e.g. even in difficult lighting conditions.

In addition, the XF16-80mm has particularly fast, precise and quiet internal focusing, which is controlled by a powerful stepper motor.

Weatherproof

The design and feel of the lens underline the first-class quality and durability of the product. The Zoom, aperture and focus rings offer optimum ease of use. The lens is splash-proof and dust-proof and can be used at temperatures as low as minus ten degrees Celsius. In combination with a Fujifilm camera body, which is also weatherproof, photographers can shoot without worrying even in light rain and dusty environments.
