The Fujifilm X-E5 arrives in August

Translation: machine translated
Fujifilm announces the X-E5 for August 2025. The retro-look camera offers a high resolution, an image stabiliser - and as a surprise, a film simulation dial.
Just a short time after the X half, Fujifilm announces another new camera: The X-E5. It also has a retro look, but is much less experimental and should appeal to a broader target group.
The X-E5 shoots videos with a maximum resolution of 6.2K and 30 frames per second (FPS). Up to 60 FPS are possible at 4K. The continuous shooting speed is 8 FPS with a mechanical shutter and 13 FPS with an electronic shutter. The autofocus has subject detection for people, birds, insects and other animals, cars, motorbikes, bicycles, aeroplanes, trains and drones.
The biggest surprise is probably that the camera has its own dial for film simulation. Turning the wheel changes the display in a small viewing window - completely analogue, if I have understood it correctly. This means that the button can probably not be assigned to any other function. You can save your own simulations - so-called recipes - for a customised look.
Unlike its predecessor, the X-E4, the X-E5 has small grips on the front and back to give thumbs and fingers a little more grip.
The Fujifilm X-E5 is expected to be available from August 2025. There is a black and a silver version. The recommended retail price is 1349 francs or 1549 euros without lens. Later, probably from December 2025, there will also be a kit version with a new 23mm pancake lens. All variants are available to pre-order now.
