The Fujifilm X-T5 is a camera for people who like holding a camera. Shutter speed dial on top. ISO dial on top. Exposure compensation dial on top. You can set everything before you turn it on, and you can read your settings at a glance with the camera switched off. Fuji went back to that classic layout with the X-T5 after the X-T4 drifted toward video, and photographers noticed.

It came out in late 2022 and has been one of Fujifilm’s best sellers since. A successor, the X-T6, has been the subject of rumors through 2026. Until it lands in shops in numbers, the X-T5 remains the photographer’s X-mount camera to buy.

The Fujifilm X-T50 takes the best part of the X-T5, its 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR sensor, and puts it in a smaller, lighter, cheaper body. Fuji launched it in May 2024 at $1,399 for the body, and it weighs about 438 grams with battery and card. It also swaps the ISO dial for something new: a dedicated film simulation dial on top.

That dial tells you who it’s for. People who want to pick a look and shoot, and who care more about the feel of their photos than chasing specs.

No camera of the last five years had a launch quite like the Fujifilm X100VI. Announced in February 2024, it sold out almost everywhere and stayed hard to find for months. Social media did most of the marketing. People who had never owned a “real” camera wanted this one.

It’s easy to be cynical about that. Don’t be. Under the hype is a very good camera.

The X100VI is a fixed-lens compact with a 23mm f/2 lens, which gives the field of view of a 35mm lens on full frame. Classic street and travel framing. The body is the same small, retro shape the X100 line has used since 2011. What changed is inside: the 40.2MP X-Trans 5 HR sensor from the X-T5, and in-body image stabilization for the first time in an X100.
