Its lighter than most professional cameras and its intuitive to use. Im still adjusting to learning photography but here are some pics.

First off I am not a professional photographer by any means, but this camera makes me feel like i am!
I love how you adjust the ISO, white balance, and shutter speed using the dials on top instead of having to go into a menu hidden inside 3 other menus to find it. It gives me the nostalgia of when i used a manual film camera without the mess of a dark room.
Speaking of menu, it's very easy to navigate and the in camera filter options are amazing. They really make the photos i take pop! Now these arent your mommas snapchat filters either. The photo still feels natural with them on
I got the package with a lens and I'd highly recommend it. Even though the lens is longer than your standard point and shooter, i didn't notice much weight difference when i was carrying it around. I also love how you can adjust the F stop on the lens to make sure you get the best photo.

My Fujifilm X-T5 has been incredible. The colors are rich, the autofocus is fast, and the camera just feels inspiring to shoot with. It’s lightweight but powerful, and every photo comes out sharp and clean. Easily one of the best investments I’ve made for my photography.

Great Camera! Many options and features to learn but easy to do one at a time. For me, having many of the controls be physical makes it easier to take photos such as aperture on the lens and shutter dial on the body. The best part of all may be that it is a fun camera to use! Being not a very skilled photographer I also like that using mirrorless allows you to somewhat view how your settings will affect the end photo before you snap the photo. Recently took on a cruise to Alaska shortly after buying and had a great experience. The only issue I ran into was that the battery completely died and since it does not come with a battery charger- only a cable to plug into camera and charge through camera- there was a quirk that the charging light on the camera body did not light up while charging which it is supposed to. This caused concern during my trip as I thought the camera broke. Fortunately, it just took some time and did charge just fine but the charging quirk was not something I expected or behavior I found in manual. Seems to have been related to the battery being completely exhausted. Oh, also- be careful cleaning the viewfinder- it scratches extremely easy. I was very careful and cleaning with a lens wipe and unfortunately got 3 scratches on the viewfinder- it seems to be made out of some sort of plastic. Thankfully, the scratches do not affect the view through the viewfinder but was sort of a bummer. I decided it adds character!
Have been having a lot of fun with this camera!

Just bought and it’s one of the best cameras I’ve purchase. I’m an artist and use it for my personal use as well as projects that need photographic work. Love the images it produces. You can’t go wrong buying this amazing Fujifilm XT-5.

Great camera, fun to use and has amazing quality. The film simulations and manual wheels are awesome, it brings nostalgic vibe and cool factor. I highly recommend this camera.

This was my first DSLR. I have always used film in the past. This is a film user's delight for a digital camera. I have a lot of friends that I go out on photo shoots with and they all have Sonys. I'm sure the Sony's are really nice for people who like to get the raw image and edit everything in Lightroom or capture One, but for a film person like me the different film emulations available make this the most amazing camera. It's like I have a little photo studio in my camera. I can see what it's going to look like before I take the picture.
It really depends on what you're looking for in a camera. Do you want to take the picture and have it look like your final product right out of the camera, or do you want to take the picture and make it look how you want after the fact?
There's no right or wrong answer to this question. It's all up to the user. The jpegs look really nice. I take raw and jpeg at the same time so that if I want to edit the raw file later, I can.
I will say that the 16 - 80 lens that comes with it is not wide open enough for me. I have picked up a few additional lenses that have an f 1.4 or an f2. There's really no Boceh on the 16 - 80 F4 unless you're right up next to the object.

Really great camera. Love the Fuji colors when taking outdoor nature photos with natural sunlight. Good for digital shots and headshots. There’s a lot to learn with the settings. Some youtube videos out there makes it easy to set for beginners.

Great features, great size, great ergonomics, great lenses, great specs, great looks, great app (mostly).
First of all, if you need something that can track fast moving subjects, avoid this. Without a doubt, this is leagues behind Sony/Canon autofocus, and likely Nikon. Even with static subjects expect focus to be missed so make sure you take multiple photos. When it does hit, it looks great, but it’s a roll of the dice on when that’s gonna happen. I tried multiple lenses, went through all firmware upgrades on lenses/body, and still had some glaringly bad misses. I take a lot of photos of dogs and some sports, so erratic movement and tracking are important to me, which this camera just could not handle. I watched all the YouTube videos and read all the setting guides, no amount of tampering with settings will fix the issue Fuji has with tracking and Eye Autofocus. It’s almost as if the focus is on the reflection of the eyeball itself and not the iris/pupil. And yes, I tried Camera One as well because it’s supposed to be better with that sensor.
If you’re planning to use this for static subjects, street photography, landscape, portraits of people, you can probably make it work. But any erratic movement and it just falls apart.
No amount of film simulation and retro controls will make up for the feeling you get when going through photos you can’t recreate that missed focus consistently. Stick with the big 3 on manufacturers or learn how to manual focus very well.

At this price point, all the options are very good. I like the Fuji for its retro style, ease of use, image stabilization, film simulations, weight, and overall ergonomics. It's just an outstanding camera.

Im fairly new to photography i used to have a camera and got rid of it, but i have recently been getting my creative flow back! So i started looking for a camera my friend recently purchased the XT4, and i did a bunch of research for her when she was getting ready to buy. When i started looking and saw that the XT5 was available i jumped on the opportunity to get it! It may be basic for the more advanced user but the quick auto focus and the eletronic shutter (which you can silence) makes this camera great for any application! Family portraits, sports, plays, and i havent had the opportunity just yet but i can only imagine how great the videos are!

I have been using this X-T5 to replace my ZCAM E2-S6 as well as my A7RII and it has been a powerhouse of a camera. 10/10 if you're thinking about pulling the trigger.
