1. The X-T5 uses Fujifilm’s X-mount, and is easy to use with that system’s compact lenses.
2. The body of the X-T5 has been weather-sealed against dust and moisture.
3. The MCS switch offers tactile control when selecting the focusing modes on the X-T5.

Fujifilm used its third global X-Summit of 2022 to announce the Fujifilm X-T5 (and an XF30mm macro lens). A decent upgrade on one of Fujifilm’s best-loved camera series, the X-T5 features a back-illuminated 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor and high-speed X-Processor 5 – identical to those found in the flagship Fujifilm X-H2.

Fujifilm has a challenge in creating a successor to the X-T4, released in 2020 to much acclaim. So does the X-T5 do enough to warrant an upgrade?
