In addition to F-Log, X-T5 also supports F-Log2, which records an expanded dynamic range of 13+ stops.* This range is wider than current F-Log, broadening post-production potential. The new sensor (which also features in the XH2) has a resolution of 7728 x 5152 pixels versus the 26mp XT4. This means you will be able to produce prints, @250dpi, that are 31” along the longest edge without any upscaling. Cramming 40mp into an APSC sized sensor, without compromising image quality, is no mean feat. To put that in context, the XT5’s pixel density on a Full Frame would result in a 90mp sensor and on a GFX it’s almost 160mp. The X-T4 does support a vertical battery grip, which as well as making handling easier in portrait mode, greatly increases the available battery life. Price

If that’s not enough for you the XT5 also features Pixel Shift Multi-Shot, which uses the camera’s in-body image stabilization (IBIS) mechanism to shift the image sensor with precision, to And let's not forget the X-Processor 5. Because the new processor is about 20% more efficient than the X-T4, battery life gets a boost to a quoted 740 frames in economy mode. The battery’s the same NP-W235 intro’d on the X-T4 and also used on the latest X-H bodies, with Fujifilm claiming 740 frames in economy mode or around 90 minutes of video. I never got batteries with my Nikon f90, never mind a charger for them.

As Fujifilm’s technologies improved though, the X-T evolved to become more adept at fast action, sports and wildlife photography, as well as growing into a very capable tool for video, and in turn the body gradually beefed-up to better-handle bigger lenses while also acquiring a side-hinged screen. Switching to the electronic shutter allows you to shoot at up to 20fps, but with a 1.29x crop, resulting in smaller images. Once again I confirmed the actual speed in my own tests, managing to capture 603 JPEGs across 30 seconds or 22 uncompressed RAW files in 1.1 seconds. In both cases, the buffer took around ten seconds to fully write onto SD memory. The new X-T5 ups the ante considerably to a brand new 40.2 megapixel sensor, offering much greater resolution.

Alternatively, if you’re shopping at B&H you can use Watson or SmallRig batteries – both great options as well.
The SmallRig charger will only charge a Fuji NP-235 to about 97% (as per the camera display). Presumably because of the lower 7.2 VDC output voltage of the SmallRig charger (vs 8.4 VDC) and the higher capacity of the Fuji battery. The old one-over-the-effective-focal-length rule to avoid camera shake has become less accurate as sensor resolutions have increased, and on the day I required a shutter speed of around 1/100 to completely avoid shake with this lens and IBIS disabled.
