The X-M5 is equipped with the back-illuminated 26.1-megapixel “X-Trans™ CMOS 4”*3 sensor and the “X-Processor 5” high-speed image processing engine, enabling high-quality shooting. The dial is located on the top surface for switching between “Film Simulation” modes, which allows users to enjoy various color tone expressions as if they were changing photographic films. Combined with the AUTO mode on the mode dial, even first-time digital camera users can easily enjoy the richly colored image creation that is unique to Fujifilm.
In addition, powerful digital image stabilization, a high-performance built-in microphone, and in-camera SD card recording at 6.2K/30P 4:2:2 10bit support comfortable video recording.

High-grade appearance
Design of the top surface
- The film simulation dial is located on the left shoulder of the top surface. The user can intuitively switch between a total of 20 “Film Simulation” modes according to the subject or scene, allowing the user to enjoy a wide variety of color expression.
- A mode dial on the right shoulder of the top surface allows the camera to automatically recognize the best shooting mode for the scene in AUTO mode, making it easy for first-time digital camera users to capture high-quality still images and movies.
(2) Equipped with a high-performance sensor and high-speed image processing engine to achieve high image quality and high-performance AF
- Equipped with the back-illuminated “X-Trans™ CMOS 4” sensor with approximately 26.1 megapixels and the latest high-speed image processing engine “X-Processor 5”. This feature enables high image quality photography with low power consumption.
- Equipped with Face / Eye AF. In addition, the subject detection AF developed using deep learning technology enables AI detection of animals, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, airplanes, trains, insects, and drones*4.
- The latest AF predictive algorithm provides high tracking performance for moving subjects and high precision AF in low-contrast environments.
- *4 Set the Subject Detection Setting to “BIRD” when you want to detect insects and to “AIRPLANE” when you want to detect drones.
(3) Supports 6.2K/30P video recording, etc., and offers a full range of video recording functions
- The X-M5 is capable of 6.2K/30P 4:2:2 10bit in-camera SD card recording, and supports 4K/60P and 1080/240P, providing a full range of video recording capabilities.
- Equipped with powerful digital image stabilization. It is effective not only for minor camera shake but also for large shaking that occurs when shooting video while walking.
- For the first time in Fujifilm’s digital camera lineup, three built-in microphones are equipped. Users can choose from four microphone directivity options: surround, front, back, or front & back, depending on the situation. The X-M5 is also the first to feature a steady-state noise reduction function, which reduces noise that continues to sound at a certain frequency, such as the noise from an air conditioner.
- “Vlog mode” allows users to change shooting conditions intuitively by touching the LCD. Improvements in the number and placement of icons make video recording even more intuitive. In addition, the new “9:16 short movie mode” allows users to easily shoot vertical videos popular on various social media and smoothly share the captured content.
- Two new bit rates, 8Mbps and 25Mbps, have been added to the list of bit rates that can be selected in the “Media Recording Settings” when shooting video. This shortens the transfer time to external devices such as smartphones and contributes to shortening the time required to upload captured video directly to social media.
