Fujifilm X-M5 / FUJIFILM X-T50

X-Trans uses an irregular colour filter instead of the usual Bayer pattern; according to Fujifilm this reduces moiré without an optical low-pass filter.

The same sensor is used in the X-T5 and X-H2; the high resolution leaves room to crop but makes files larger.

HEIF stores more tonal information than JPEG in a smaller file; not all software can open it.

The electronic shutter is silent but can skew fast-moving subjects (rolling shutter).

There is no in-body sensor-shift stabilisation; stills need an OIS lens for stabilisation.

The camera has no electronic viewfinder; you shoot using the screen.

6.2K 3:2 open-gate recording uses the full sensor height, so vertical and horizontal video can be cropped from one shot.

Fujifilm lists about 45 minutes of continuous recording in 6.2K and 4K with face detection off; this may vary with temperature.

Frame counts follow the CIPA standard. Fujifilm gives about 45 minutes of actual recording time for 6.2K video.

The cover is for attaching a separately sold cooling fan to reduce heat during long video recording.

The image processor that runs the autofocus algorithms, film simulations and video encoding.

Directly compatible with X-series XF and XC lenses; GF lenses do not fit this body.

This is the pixel size of the largest photo at the sensor’s full resolution.

HEIF stores more colour gradations than JPEG; RAW gives the most flexibility when editing.

Extended ISO values may reduce dynamic range or add noise; the maker counts them outside the standard range.

Sensor shift reduces shake even with unstabilised lenses; digital stabilisation crops the image slightly.

The electronic shutter is silent and allows very short exposures, but fast-moving subjects can appear skewed.

In the 20 fps mode speed drops after 168 JPEGs or 66 compressed RAW frames; buffer depth depends on file type.

Subject detection finds the chosen subject type in the frame and tries to keep focus on it.

Film simulations change the colour and tone of JPEG and HEIF files; a RAW file can be processed later with a different simulation.

With a single slot, recordings cannot be backed up to two cards at once.

Magnification describes how large the viewfinder image appears; the X-T5’s viewfinder has a higher resolution.

The screen tilts up and down; it does not flip to the side and face forward, so you cannot see framing when filming yourself.

USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 transfers up to 10 Gbit/s; it is used for file transfer and tethered shooting.

Micro HDMI is a small, fragile connector; securing the cable is advisable when connecting an external recorder.

There is no separate headphone jack on the body; video audio is monitored through the adapter.

The built-in flash can trigger external flashes in commander mode.

The frame count was measured by Fujifilm with the XF35mmF1.4 R; it is clearly lower than with the X-T5’s larger NP-W235 battery.

Depth is measured including the grip; the lens is not included.

The weight does not include a lens.

Bluetooth keeps the phone paired and passes location data, while Wi-Fi handles photo transfer.

No separate charger is listed; the battery charges in the camera over USB.

Fujifilm does not list weather resistance for the body.
