Thanks Andrei! I upgraded from the XT3, so I’ll add IBIS to your list. Image and build quality are important too! Geoff
Your welcome!
Appearing in camera conspiracies videos is almost a proof of being good even if the dude thinks he's sharper than anybody else. We're both part of the club😅
True😅
Félicitari! După ce m-am săturat să caut un x100v, cred ca voi lua un x-t5 cu 18-55mm
Hi Andrei, thank you for a great video. Would you mind sharing info about the wrist strap that you use? Thank you!
Hi Martin, thank you! It is the Peak Design Cuff.
What is the little red cap on your shutter button??.. I like 😍😍
It is a soft shutter button, you can find a link in the description.
Can I use my lenses from my X-T1 with the X-T5?
Yes.
@@AndreiDimaReviews cool, cause I already spent close to $4000.00 in lenses, 👍
I am very happy with my XT5. It works for me. If I had a choice between the stacked sensor and the 40 mp sensor I would have gone with the 26mp. 26 has been just fine with me in the past. But I too do not like big camera equipment which is one of the big reasons I shoot Fuji. My previous camera was the XS-10 which I got because I wanted IBIS but I missed the earlier ergonomics of an XT-3 which I sold and still regret selling it til this day. It was my favorite til the XT-5. Bigger battery, smaller size, ISO 125 which surprised me, new processor and the tilt screen. To me they just gave me what I wanted added to what I had in my XT-3.
I see that you can change the settings of the resolution and it can bring it to around 20M pixels (enough for a large part of photographer)…is that true?
X-T3 was the start of a great generation for Fujifilm, I never had one but maybe you can buy one in a few years when the price goes down.
With the raw files I have found that you can only compress to make the file sizes smaller. With the jpegs you have a lot more options. You have the options to adjust not just the image quality but also the image size. You have 2 settings in image quality, fine and normal. Fine being the larger file. If you shoot jpegs you could make the file size smaller. If I shoot at the highest jpeg setting I get a little over the 20mp. With the raw file I shoot compressed which for me was about 30mp. I don’t shoot uncompressed because the files are huge, over 80mp.
@@bbasleigh6149 X-T3 sensor is more accurate than X-T2. There's something odd with reds when you analyze the raw data (with the sensor in the X-T2 generation of cameras).
Love the retro look of the camera
It's a nice one.
I found an XT5 for $280 dollars do you think it’s a scam?
Yes.
Well said my friend. I finally upgraded from my old XT-2 and what an upgrade that was. I tried both the XH2 and XT5 and while there are quite a few reasons to choose the XH2 I just enjoy using the XT cameras much more. My biggest complaint with the XH2 was the inability to change iso with a command dial. This is something fuji could fix so easy in a firmware update. I just wish more people would complain about it.
I still have the Nikon Z6 and while the image output is great and the 24-120 is the most amazing travel lens I have ever used, the Nikon just does not inspire me to go out and shoot. I consistently reach for the Fuji. There is just something unique about the fuji images.
Thank you! My hand always goes for the Fuji cameras when I go out. I love my Z7II and the 24-120 but I just enjoy Fuji gear more, these are great work tools but just like you, I feel more inspired when I use Fujifilm.
what are working ISO on x-t5? Thanks
@@АнтонБерезин-п8у I would go to maximum ISO 3200.
@@AndreiDimaReviews I have the Z6 II and 24-120mm and 20mm 1,8 S. I just ordered the X-T5 because I miss Fujifilm so much (had the X-T3, Pro 2 and T4) although the image quality may not be quite the same. But I think with the 18mm1.4 or 23mm 1.4 even that will be on par. Thank you for the video!
Hello Andrei, I recently bought the XT-5 and I am a bit worried about the camera slightly warming up after short use. I must say I did upgrade from x-t2 and I am aware about the electronics are different... but is it something I should worry about? I don't see anyone talking about this.
Hello, does it warm up when you shoot video? If so that is normal.
My main reason was none of this. It is the 7 + 7 Custom Settings - 7 for video and 7 for photography. Differently from the X-T4 in video each customer setting can control everything. This makes it even more powerful and easy to use than the X-H2 or X-H2S with its PASM dial. You actually label them, and they are displayed on the screen when you want to select them. And yes - you actually have twice the number of custom settings therefore than the X-H2 cameras.
Thank you for sharing!
Can you pls be brief I am still confused between X-S10 (for big grip & custom mode), I thought X-t4 didn't have any custom mode, especially for video.
I like the looks of X-t4,but grip is bigger concern while using telephoto lens like 100-400
Edit: Lot of spelling mistakes are corrected
What are you even trying to say?
Good morning, yes, there are 5 good reasons to choose this camera. Thanks for sahring
Greetings
Good morning! Thank you!
I’m still holding out for that Viltrox 13 video, Andrei!
Soon, I wanted to make that video for while now but I had some problems with the lens and X-T5.
@@AndreiDimaReviews that’s too bad. Hope it sorts itself out.
Hi Andrei, thank you for the info about the wrist strap. I have a bigger question for you. I want to upgrade from my X-T4 to an X-T5, but I am wondering if the 18-135 lens that I have now would be decent on the X-T5, as it is not listed under the preferred lenses for the X-T5. Do you have any words of wisdom on this? Or would it make sense to sell the 18-135 and get the new 18-120?
Hi Marin, why do you want to upgrade to the X-T5? If you are certain you want to upgrade then the 18-120 should be a better option.
Great sharing about Fujifilm
Thank you!
Andrei !!! Love the videos :) Ty. I see you have the silver xt5 :) any reasoning on the silver vs the black. I know it’s a nonsense topic but find it interesting on why people choose the black or silver :)
Anyway cheers 🍻
Thank you! I chose the silver version because it reminds me of a Nikon film camera that I used in the past.
@@AndreiDimaReviews excellent thanks for the reply!!
What can we expect from Fuji this Year!?
Fuji rumours said the X-S20 is the next camera in the sprig. My prediction is X-Pro4 in the summer and X-E5 in November.
But do you need to switch to iso 650 for high dynamic range jpegs?
Yes, but on the X-T5 it is ISO 500.
Hi, as a daily round around camera, I think red batch Fuji lenses are big and heavy and not balance on xt5. You show here 16mm and 27mm but to cover all range what lenses do you recommend to be mach with xt5 not to heavy to carry and well performance?
At the moment I use the 16mm, 27mm, 33mm and 35mm. I would add the 50mm f2 to these, its a great lens.
Great essay! I am realising that the X-T5 is the camera that I have been waiting for. I can sell three cameras and wrap them for bto this year be. Subbed!
Thank you! It is a great update if you have something older then the X-T3.
Hello Andrei, i have no doubts that the xt5 its a great camera but, having a xt30 do you think its worth the upgrade? I use Fuji as casual shooter just beacuse i use a Sony FF system for portraits and i dont have any of the best Fuji Lenses (just some viltrox and a Kamlan). I dont know if i should keep the xt30 for this or upgrade to the xt5.. Thanks!
Hello Pablo, the X-T30 is great for casual shooting, I don't think you should upgrade. You can first invest in some newer lenses and maybe in a year or two get the X-T5 at a better price.
@@AndreiDimaReviews I found it at a good price but without quality lenses maybe is not worthy. Thanks you so much, really love ur videos!
nice, thank you very much :)
You are welcome!
I own an XT3 and I am also looking at the XT5, but also the XH2 and XH2S... As an hybrid shooter, isn't the PASM a better option? I'm thinking of having custom for (Bird photo, Animal photo, Portrait, Video 24, Video 24 6K (for stabilization in post), Video 60, Video 120)... Would be great to do a video on the hybrid shooting style difference between XT and XH in practical terms...
You get 7 custom modes on the X-T5 that can easily be switched between with a mapped fn button. They are stills and video independent as well (7 for stills and 7 for video).
you can set ISO to custom and exposure to T, and then use the front and real custom dials to change them like you would with PASM
@@llIlllllIll True but immagine you're on a beach by the sea side in south UK, there are birds to shoot, dogs, landscape and architecture. With the PASM I can have C1 with Continuous autofocus + CS + Center weighted AE + Autofocus for bird + etc..., With the XT5 I have to set all these manually, the bird is long gone. I love my dials, but when you are not on a set or shooting landscape... I would love the XT5 to have these C1-7 on a shortcut button in fact I think, and if I select on of those, the dials are ignored, unless I modify the value post C1 selection... For now PASM is my preference... I think... Maybe I need to rent/borrow one for a week-end to be sure.
@@alexdubois6585 you can set a custom button to directly jump to C1, or a button to open C1-C7 select
@@spencergiles72 Oh didn't know that, this is great. I'll check in the manual. Thanks a lot.
No, not for everyone. I’m currently in the process of getting rid of my entire Fujifilm kit, including the GFX system for a single Leica M11 kit. I was hoping that with the introduction of the H line Fujifilm would commit more to photography in other models like the T, Pro and X100 series (which all of them I owned) where it totally makes sense and maybe even get rid of video completely, but it seems like they are currently more interested in UA-cam influencers than actual photographers and it’s just a matter of time until even cameras like the Pro and X100 series will be permanently crippled with IBIS and more stuff that is compromising image quality and user experience for convenience. After using my M11 for some time now I can clearly see the difference in both from the only camera that truly deserves the “Photography First” title as opposed to one that is designed with UA-cam influencers in mind.
I am curious, why are you bothered by IBIS? And what do you want more on Fujifilm cameras? What Leica has and Fuji hasn't?
@@AndreiDimaReviews I actually want less. After Fujifilm got all inflencers covered with the H line I was hoping that bodies like the T, Pro and X100 line would get rid of video completely and focus on the best possible image quality and user experience but this is clearly not the case and the reason why I’m getting rid of all my Fuji bodies for the M system. IBIS btw. (along with PDAF) is a feature that compromises quite a bit of image quality for convenience, which is not exactly my conception of getting the best output from the camera sensor and not the reason why I would pick a dedicated camera over my phone.
@@TomWangArt what mirrorless camera system has photography focusing technology equal or better than on sensor PDAF?
@@yanniobkirk5744 If you think your photos are not good enough beacause your AF is 0.001s too slow then clearly the problem is not the camera. As for myself, I don't care TBH as I focus manually all the time and I have somehow managed to create award winning photographs that have been displayed at events like the Photokina (and BTW, the best photos of all times still have been created that way, on cameras much worse than what we're using today). There are cases where AF is cruicial for sure, like in sports and wildlife photography f.e. where getting the shot would be of higher priority than the best possible image quality, but I'm assuming that we're not talking about those genres here. The problem is that all UA-cam influencers will make you believe that you are not able to take a single shot without a buttload of computational aids anymore, and most manufacturers sadly started addapting to this trend. There's no varienty to choose from as they stuff all features possible into small bodies, whether useful or not, because they are more concerned about online reviews than actual photographers, while all brainwashed people will be more concerned about an impressive spec sheet than exceptional photos.
I went from Fuji to Hasselblad X2D and I can recommend that system just that I had to wait too long for their new 90 to appear. I may also be jumping to an M soon….😅
You have bizarre reasons as to why you chose this camera! 😵
I own both a Fujifilm XT4 and Sony A7iii. The Sony A7iii is lighter than the Fuji, and if you get the compact G lenses it's the same size/weight, the battery is more than 50% better, for the type of video you shoot where you put artificial grain all over it why does 10 bit or 4.2.2 even matter + you're uploading to UA-cam that will make it negligible anyways, having the lowest ISO possible is something you needed to do for cameras from 15 years ago... most if not all modern cameras are ISO invariant and full frame cameras have usable ISO all the way up to 6400 and sometimes more, and Sony autofocus completely decimates Fuji eye autofocus. Plus you get all the perks of full frame, like better noise performance, better dynamic range and better bokeh. I'm keeping the XT4 around because it has a flippy screen, but when I get the A7iv I'll be deleting Fujifilm from my life.
Interesting thought. I must admit I have considered this as well ... Still with Fuji today though :) Some benefits of Fuji are: (1) analogue shooting experience with lots of buttons and dials, (2) great film sims and colours, (3) APSC lenses are often smaller, lighter and cheaper than FF lenses... It is a tricky decision though. There are many arguments in favour of FF Sony too!
@@paullafleur6112 yeah!
You really didn't get the point of this video. Regarding video, I use my cameras professionally, having those specs is a benefit, what I upload on UA-cam is something totally different.
Was this a comparison with Sony? No. This is a Fujifilm channel and this video was for people who want to upgrade from an older Fujifilm camera to a newer Fujifilm camera.
Does Sony decimate Fujifilm when it comes to video autofocus, no, it is better but I see you like to exaggerate.
And regarding ISO it seems you really don't know what you are talking about, did you listen to what I said in the video? Do you even know what ISO invariance is?
I hope you enjoy your A7iV!
@@AndreiDimaReviews Enjoy your camera. ✌
