Fujifilm announce the latest mirrorless digital camera to join the X Series line-up, which boasts improved image quality, ISO 125 as standard sensitivity, the fastest shutter speed of 1/180000sec and the use of Pixel Shift Multi-Shot to expand photographic variations. FUJIFILM Corporation (President and CEO, Representative Director: Teiichi Goto) is pleased to announce the launch of the mirrorless digital camera FUJIFILM X- on November 17th, 2022. The X-T5 is the latest addition to the X Series of mirrorless digital cameras known for their compact and lightweight body and superior image quality based on the company's proprietary colour reproduction technology.

The X-T5 features the new fifth-generation devices, including the back-illuminated 40.2MP sensor X-TransTM CMOS 5 HR*2 and the high-speed image processing engine X-Processor 5, in its compact body which is smaller and lighter than the previous model*1, as well as advanced features including the 5-axis in-body image stabilisation of up to 7.0 stops*3. This is the new standard camera for still photography, delivering superior performance and mobility at the same time.

Performance enhancement achieved in the X-T5 include improved image quality, ISO125 as a standard sensitivity, the fastest shutter speed of 1/180000 sec, and the use of Pixel Shift Multi-Shot to expand photographic variations. Other features include the Smooth Skin Effect, Subject Detection AF capable of detecting animals and birds, and AI-based high-precision auto white balance, assisting users in producing high quality photographic images.

The camera inherits X-T Series' signature Center Viewfinder style and dial operation design. A 1.84-million-dot three-way tilting LCD screen is a new addition, making it more comfortable than ever before to shoot in vertical position or at waist level. These extensive array of performance and features is packed into the 557g body*4, which is even lighter and more compact than previous model. The X-T5 will be a perfect companion to cover a wide variety of photographic genres from street / documentary photography, in which its mobility is a major asset, to landscape photography and portraiture, which demands superior image quality. Other features that add comfort to users' photo experiences include the ability to record 10-bit 4:2:2 video at 6.2K/30P, the viewfinder magnification of 0.8x, 3.69-million-dot EVF and dual SD-card slots.

Fujifilm's double flagship models, the FUJIFILM X-H2S (released in July) and the FUJIFILM X-H (released in September), which cover both stills and videos, are now complemented with the X-T5, optimised for stills with features such as the compact lightweight body, three-way tilting LCD and dial operations. This further broadens visual production genres covered by X Series' fifth generation. Fujifilm's enhanced product lineup will continue to cater to the diverse needs of photographers and video creators.

MAIN FEATURES

Featuring the 40MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor and the high-speed X-Processor 5 image processing engine to deliver the highest image quality and resolving performance in the history of the X Series The X-T5 features the back-illuminated 40.2MP sensor X-TransTM CMOS 5 HR. The use of an improve image processing algorithm delivers advanced image resolution without compromising the S/N ratio to achieve superior image quality. The X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor can take in more light efficiently thanks to its improved pixel structure. ISO125, which was an extended ISO level in the previous model, is now available as a standard option. And exposure time is controlled in high precision, allowing users to set the shutter speed as fast as 1/180000 sec. This means large-aperture lenses can be used wide open in a greater variety of conditions.

This camera features the Pixel Shift Multi-Shot function, which quadruples image resolution and produces accurate color reproduction, ideal for commercial photography and digital archiving of cultural assets. The IBIS mechanism is used to shift the image sensor at high precision to carry out automatic shooting of 20 frames in a single click of the shutter. The dedicated software Pixel Shift Combiner processes the captured frames to generate an image containing some 160 million pixels.

The Smooth Skin Effect, which automatically smooths the skin tone, is also featured, reducing post-processing workload required in portrait photography, etc., so that images can be finished at an advanced level of perfection much quicker than ever before.

The X-T5 features Auto White Balance based on the Deep Learning technology. AI technology has boosted the camera's ability to automatically determine white balance, e.g. by way of accurately recognizing warm light-bulb color.

The X-T5 comes with 19 Film Simulation modes, including Nostalgic Neg., characterized by high saturation and soft tonality. Users can use Film Simulation presets, designed for various subject types and scenes, as if they are choosing photographic film.

The X-T5 supports the HEIF image format, which delivers 10-bit image quality in files up to 30% smaller than standard JPEGs. The next chapter in delivering high-quality results straight out of camera has officially begun for X Series.

Hardware, design and operability that provides powerful support to users' content creation

The X-T5 features the 5-axis in-body image stabilisation of up to 7.0 stops. Users can shoot hand-held even in low light conditions such as
