SPECS COMPARISON: Fujifilm X-E5 vs X-T5, X-T50, X100VI, X-E4, X-M5 and X-S20

Share

The full specs and product details for the Fujifilm X-E5 have leaked earlier today.

The specs are 100% accurate and if somebody ever said anything different compared to these specs (like different LCD or EVF specs), then they fooled you with fake rumors, which is sadly what they always do to make some traffic and money out of your good faith and valuable time.

Here on FujiRumors we don’t take these cheap shortcuts. We just have too much respect for our readers. We want to deserve your trust over and over again.

Anyway, make sure to check out this article to read every single detail about the Fujifilm X-E5.

For your convenience, I decided to extrapolate the most relevant specs and compare them to the Fujifilm X-T5, Fujifilm X-T50 and Fujifilm X100VI in one specs sheet, and with the X-E4, X-S20 and X-M5 (non-40MP models) in another specs sheet.

Remember: the price you see is in USD. And you know all to well what’s going on in the US these days.

Highlights

  • Get the stunning looks of the iconic FUJIFILM X100VI with the added creative flexibility of interchangeable lenses. A similar size and weight to the popular fixed lens X100VI, FUJIFILM X-E5 delivers the same analog controls and a film-camera-inspired user experience but gives you the option to switch lenses to suit your creative needs. X-E5 is compatible with over 40 X Mount optics and accessories, including the all-new XF23mmF2.8 R WR, so the perfect image is always within reach.
  • With its offset viewfinder, FUJIFILM X-E5 echoes the timeless style of rangefinder film cameras and features a stunning machined aluminum top-plate. Aesthetically beautiful, the top-plate exudes quality and durability thanks to its premium look and feel as well as delivering a precise, angular design. Perfect for those who favor more traditional camera operation, X-E5 offers analog controls for quick, easy access to core functions, while additional features such as the Bluetooth connectivity button – placed on the base like a film rewind button – enhance the camera’s nostalgic feel.
  • A first for X Series cameras, FUJIFILM X-E5 features a customizable Film Simulation dial. Neatly placed under the aluminum top-plate with a circular window providing an easy view of the active mode, the dial provides fast access to Fujifilm’s unique Film Simulation modes that deliver stunning results straight out of camera. Additionally, the dial has three customizable settings, which give users the option to create and save their own recipes for instant recall in the field.
  • Sometimes the best images are made when lighting is low and, thanks to the in-body image stabilization (IBIS) on FUJIFILM X-E5, you’ll be able to tackle these situations in complete confidence. Providing up to seven stops of benefit at the center of the frame and six stops at the edges, the IBIS system features a new algorithm and upgraded gyro sensor to deliver an improved performance that helps keep crucial images free from camera shake.
  • Image quality is assured with FUJIFILM X-E5 thanks to the latest 40.2-megapixel X-Trans 5 HR sensor and X-Processor 5 imaging engine. This combination brings additional functionality, including a lower base ISO of 125 and deep learning AI-powered subject detection AF across a broader range of subjects. The higher resolution also unlocks a two-step digital teleconverter feature, which crops into the sensor to provide a 1.4x or 2x zoom, giving further in camera flexibility.
  • Thanks to its detailed electronic viewfinder, FUJIFILM X-E5 lets you see every detail when viewing images. As well as providing an accurate preview of the scene, it also provides some additional functions that deliver an experience similar to an optical viewfinder. These include three Surround View modes which allow the selection of a black, semi-transparent or line outline showing the image’s aspect ratio and what is outside of it to better anticipate subjects moving into frame, plus a Simple View option, which emulates the viewfinder from an analog film SLR.

Digital Fujifilm XPan in 2028? Fujifilm’s Latest Lens Patent Points to the Fujifilm TX-3 Panoramic Camera

Share

A while ago, we shared that Fujifilm was considering launching a digital successor to the legendary XPan/TX series in 2028.

For now, let’s just call it the Fujifilm TX-3 — the spiritual digital follow-up to the Fujifilm TX-2 panoramic film camera.

Back in 2024, when we first reported on this, we clearly said it was just something Fujifilm was considering. If they decide to move forward, the plan would be to launch it in time for the 30th anniversary of the original Fujifilm TX-1 — a true 65×24 format panoramic camera introduced in 1998.

The last update I received dates back to September 2024, and it hinted at the possible sensor details. Since then… silence.

Until now.

Today, we may have a new clue to add to the Fujifilm TX-3 puzzle.

We just reported on a Fujifilm lens patent. And in this patent FR-reader Mistral spotted something interesting — something that might relate to the upcoming digital TX/XPan camera.

In fact, looking at all the examples included in the patent, Mistral noticed that they might be actually indicating lenses for a panoramic camera.

  • very large angle of view: 90° to 110°, except for the last of the 21 examples, which is an outlier (35mm f/1,6 with a back focus of 21mm, designed for a 24×36 sensor)
  • too short back focus for an interchangeable lens: 9mm to 13mm
  • odd image circle diameter: 50mm, too big for a 24×36 sensor, too small for a 33×44 sensor but suited to the 24:65 crop of a 33×44 sensor.

Looking at the patent, we’d get something like a 21mm f/2.8. If you want to know the in-depth calculations and observations, make sure to check out Mistral’s post at the French forum chassimages here.

So will we really get a digital Fujifilm XPan in 2028?

Well, that would be a dream come true for many of us. And personally, I hope the rumor becomes reality.

And if anyone can pull this off, then it’s Fujifilm, because it’s a company that thinks differently.

A company with such a massive photographic culture that it understands that cultivating a niche means cultivating the true passion for photography.

If anyone can bring back the spirit of the XPan for a new digital age, it’s Fujifilm. And I truly hope they do.

But what about you? Happy about it or do you consider it a waste of resources?

Sigma 17-40mmF1.8 vs Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 Size Comparison

Share

Here is a quick and approximate size comparison between the Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 MKII, the upcoming Sigma 17-40mmF1.8 DC ART and the old Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8.

It seems that in terms of size the new Sigma 17-40mmF1.8 DC ART will sit somewhere in between the two Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 lenses.

As a reference: the Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 II weights 410 gram whereas the Sigma 17-40mmF1.8 weights ⁠535 gram.

If the optical quality is very good (and we will find it out on June 17), then the Sigma 17-40mmF1.8 could be a game-changing lens for some fellow Fujifilm APS-C shooters.

Remember: we shared images and full specs of the Sigma 17-40mmF1.8 here.

Fujifilm Patents Full Frame 40mm F2, GF 20mm F2.8 (GFX) and XF 15mm F2.8 (APS-C)

Share

A bunch of patents have now been published and have been reported by the Japanese website asobinet.

Based on the info provided, it is mainly it’s about:

  • Fujinon GF 20mm f/2.8
  • Fujinon XF 14mm f/2.8
  • Fujinon 40mm f/2 – for Full Frame

You know my take on patents. I mean, I am still waiting for that lovely foldable Fujifilm smartphone ;).

Just saying… take them with a grain of salt.
