In the lastest Fujicast episode, Kevin and Neale have, among the others, a talk with Fujifilm UK manager Andreas Georghiades and they also go to the Fujifilm headquarter in Japan and talk to product planers.
Needless to say, the talk mostly gravitates around the Fujifilm X-T5. Down below is a summary as well as the podcast to listen.
I am terribly sorry…. terribly sorry that many of you had to wait so long to be featured.
But no matter how hard I work, especially in a crazy 2022, with 3 higher end cameras coming out and 4 XF lenses coming out, I simply could not find time to collect all your wishes and share them.
So I’ll do it today… I grabbed a large beer, took a deep breath, and worked to organise the wishes I have received over the last few months in this article.
So… down below it is: the FR-readers wishlist roundup
Over all these years of covering Fujifilm I came to one conclusion:
there is a dedicated team inside Fujifilm that serves the sole purpose to figure out how to annoy customers by constantly changing camera controls.
Well, that team was very successful again.
Let me quickly explain.

X-T5 USA Pre-Orders
Fujinon XF30mmF2.8 Macro Pre-Orderrs
X-T5 Other Countries
Do you remember when Fujifilm USA dropped a brilliant Fujifilm GFX100S ad that basically was a shout-out to FujiRumors and created one of the most hilarious photography promo video I have seen ever?
If not, check out their video here.
Well, the one they dropped for the Fujifilm X-T5 is not less hilarious. I won’t spoil anything, just watch it above!
And to be clear… the X-T line was forced into the flagship role, as we reported here. But it’s nice to see the X-T line going back to its roots.
Nokishita leaked on an anonymous Japanese Forum the main specs of the Fujinon XF30mm f/2.8 Macro.
As FR-readers know, the lens will be announced along with the Fujifilm X-T5 on November 2 at 9AM New York time.

It’s not a dealbreaker, but a dubious choice Fujifilm made: on the Fujifilm X-H2S and the Fujifilm X-H2, the front and rear command dial are not clickable.
From what I have read, this was done to prevent accidental change of ISO value, and some even say it helps for even better weather sealing.
Quite frankly, none of these explanations convinces me.
And this is why, when I asked what you’d like to know about the Fujifilm X-T5, the question if the X-T5 will have clickable dials or not came up quite a bit.
Well, today I can give you the answer: the Fujifilm X-T5 front and rear command dial will be still clickable.
Personally I am very happy about that.

When I told you that the Fujifilm X-T5 will be smaller than the Fujifilm X-T4, some of you understood that this might be the reason why it won’t shoot 8K video (smaller bodies struggle more with heat management than bigger bodies).
But others were worried that the Fujifilm X-T5 won’t even offer 6K video.
So I am glad to report that, despite getting smaller, the Fujifilm X-T5 will still be able to shoot 6K video, more precisely 6K/30p.
So yes, it is not 8K, but 6K should be a pretty decent format for most video uses anyway.
The X-T5 is still a very nice hybrid camera.

Fujifilm seems to be in a hurry with the Fujifilm X-T5.
We told you Fujifilm will announce the Fujifilm X-T5 (and XF30mmF2.8 Macro) on November 2 and in fact it is now official as the Fujifilm X summit has been annouced. That’s per se surprising, as they never launched camera gear in November.
But it gets even better.
Fujifilm will start shipping the Fujifilm X-T5 already in mid November, which means just about 2 weeks after its announcement. I can’t remember Fujifilm ever start to ship gear as fast.
Fujifilm X-T5 rumors recap:
I have read speculation about Fujifilm not offering pixel shift on the Fujifilm X-T5 in order to differentiate it even further from the Fujifilm X-H2 and keep pushing sales of their higher end X-H line.
So I investigated and our sources would like to reassure us future X-T5 owners that these speculations are not accurate.
The Fujifilm X-T5 will offer pixel shift, hence it will have the capability to take 160 megapixel images. And of course this means also that the X-T5 has sensor shift stabilization (IBIS), which is needed for pixel shift.
