Fujifilm X-M5
Compact mirrorless camera · 26.1 MP APS-C · 2024
Short answer
The Fujifilm X-M5 is a compact mirrorless camera released in November 2024 at a US launch price of $799. It has a 26.1 MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor and the X-Processor 5. The same sensor and processor are in the X-T30 III and X-S20. There is no in-body stabilization.
It weighs 355 g and measures 111.9 × 66.6 × 38.0 mm. Fujifilm rates the battery at about 330 shots per charge. The body is not weather sealed. It records to one SD UHS-I card slot. It shoots video at 6.2K/30p, 4K/60p, 10-bit 4:2:2. There is no built-in viewfinder; you frame on the rear screen.
The rear screen is a 3.0-inch vari-angle touchscreen with 1.04M dots. Native sensitivity runs ISO 160–12800, extended to 80–51200. Continuous shooting reaches 30 fps electronic (1.25× crop), 8 fps mechanical.
Compared with the X-M1 (2013), the previous model in the series:
- 26.1 MP instead of 16.3 MP
- X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor (was X-Trans CMOS)
- X-Processor 5 (was EXR Pro)
- 10 new film simulations (Classic Chrome, REALA ACE, Classic Negative, Nostalgic Neg., ETERNA / Cinema, ETERNA Bleach Bypass, ACROS, ACROS+Ye, ACROS+R, and ACROS+G)
- 25 g heavier (355 g)
It is still in Fujifilm’s current lineup.
