Innovation and Flexibility with an Iconic Silhouette
Combining the versatility of interchangeable lenses with the powerful 40.2MP APS-C sensor and the timeless rangefinder-style design, the FUJIFILM X-E5 delivers advanced imaging capabilities in a compact, tactile body. Designed for creatives who value physical controls, it features five-axis in-body image stabilization, AI-powered autofocus, 14-bit Raw capture, and 6.2K video recording. A dedicated film simulation dial provides quick access to FUJIFILM’s 20 preset looks and three customizable modes for a personalized shooting experience.
Imaging Performance
The X-E5 uses the same 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor and X-Processor 5 imaging engine found in the flagship X100VI. This combination produces exceptional stills and video, while offering a base ISO of 125 for reduced noise and enhanced low-light performance. AI-powered subject detection expands focus accuracy across a variety of scenes, and built-in digital teleconverter settings (1.4x and 2.0x) allow for extended reach without lens changes.
Still image formats include Raw 14-bit, HEIF 4:2:2 10-bit, TIFF 8-bit, and JPEG, with resolutions up to 7728 x 5152 (3:2). Fast continuous shooting at up to 20 fps with a 1.29x crop ensures you can capture decisive moments, while long exposures are possible for up to one hour in bulb mode.
Film Simulation Dial
The physical film simulation dial, placed conveniently near the viewfinder, offers quick selection between FUJIFILM’s iconic color profiles, such as PROVIA, Velvia, Classic Chrome, Nostalgic Neg., and ACROS. Three user-assignable positions allow you to store and recall custom looks instantly.
Video Capabilities
The X-E5 records 6.2K, UHD/ DCI 4K, and Full HD video, with frame rates up to 240 fps in Full HD. Footage can be captured in H.265 or H.264 formats with All-Intra or Long GOP compression at bitrates up to 200 Mb/s. AI-driven autofocus ensures subjects remain sharp, while color reproduction and detail remain outstanding across formats.
