Fujifilm X-M5 / Sony ZV-E1

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.

A low-resolution full-frame sensor gathers more light per pixel, at the cost of limited room for cropping stills.

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 mechanical shutter; the line-by-line readout of the electronic shutter can skew fast-moving subjects.

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.

USB PD support allows the camera to be powered during recording from a suitable adapter or power bank.

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.

Subject recognition covers humans, animals, birds, insects, cars, trains and aircraft.

XAVC HS uses H.265 and XAVC S uses H.264; XAVC S-I uses intra-frame coding, which is lighter to edit but takes much more space.

The shoe’s digital audio interface lets compatible Sony microphones send audio to the camera digitally without a cable.
