Product Description

Innovation and Versatility in a Classic Form
Blending the creative flexibility of interchangeable lenses with the high-resolution 40.2MP APS-C sensor found in the X100VI, the FUJIFILM X-E5 Mirrorless Camera brings advanced imaging technology into a compact, retro-inspired body. Designed for photographers who prefer hands-on control, it features 5-axis in-body stabilization, AI-driven autofocus, 14-bit RAW capture, and 6.2K video at 29.97 fps. A physical film simulation dial lets users quickly switch between FUJIFILM’s iconic film looks, including three customizable presets.

High-Resolution Imaging & Powerful Processing

Borrowing the 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor and X-Processor 5 from the X100VI, the X-E5 delivers exceptional detail and vibrant color in RAW, JPEG, HEIF, and TIFF formats. With a base ISO of 125 and extended ranges up to 51,200, it excels in both low-light and daylight settings. The AI-powered autofocus system recognizes a wide variety of subjects, while the digital teleconverter (1.4x and 2.0x) allows for tighter framing without changing lenses.

Advanced Still Photography

Engineered with street photographers in mind, the X-E5 balances power and portability:

• Capture in RAW (14-bit), HEIF (10-bit 4:2:2), TIFF (8-bit), or JPEG

• Max image resolutions: 7728 x 5152 (3:2), 7728 x 4344 (16:9), 5152 x 5152 (1:1)

• Mechanical shutter speeds up to 1/4000 sec; electronic shutter up to 1/180,000 sec

• Continuous RAW shooting up to 20 fps with a 1.29x crop

• Long exposure options: 1-hour bulb mode and 15-minute standard exposure

Customizable Film Simulation

The X-E5 offers a physical dial next to the viewfinder for instant access to FUJIFILM’s legendary Film Simulation modes. Choose from 20 presets or save up to three custom looks for fast switching on location. Options include PROVIA, Velvia, Classic Chrome, REALA ACE, ETERNA Cinema, ACROS (with filter variants), and more—each designed to mimic the look and feel of iconic analog film stocks.

High-Quality Video Capabilities

A capable hybrid camera, the X-E5 records in 6.2K, UHD 4K, DCI 4K, and Full HD:

• Frame rates up to 29.97 fps (6.2K), 59.94 fps (4K), and 240 fps (FHD)

• 425-point hybrid AF with intelligent AI subject recognition

• H.265 and H.264 formats with All-Intra and Long GOP compression

• Bitrates up to 200 Mbps ensure excellent clarity and color

Intuitive Controls & Displays

Navigate settings and preview content with ease using the 3″ 1.04m-dot tilting touchscreen or the 2.36m-dot OLED EVF with .62x magnification and 100% frame coverage. The EVF supports a Simple View mode for a clean analog-like experience, while Surround View modes help with framing in non-standard aspect ratios.

In-Body Stabilization for Steady Shots

Despite its compact form, the X-E5 offers five-axis IBIS for handheld stability:

• Up to 7 stops of compensation at center frame

• Up to 6 stops at the edges

• Improved gyro sensors and algorithm reduce shake in challenging environments

Timeless Design, Modern Functionality

With an aluminum top plate, refined grip, and tactile manual controls, the X-E5 delivers a film-camera experience with today’s technology. Key features include:

• Dedicated dials for shutter speed, exposure compensation, and film simulation

• “A” (aperture priority) and “P” (program) modes built into the shutter dial

• Two customizable function buttons and a four-position teleconverter lever

• One-touch Bluetooth pairing button for quick connectivity
