Chris, you're the best. I've been a photographer for over fifty years. I just got the XT5 and happily decided to use your guide for starter set-up. You make it clear and simple. And fun. Inspiring. Thank you!

I agree, this man is the very best out there! Greetings
I've got my XT5 in hand while watching this. The information you provide is priceless! Thank you.
Chris, my X-T5 was delivered Thursday. I had pre-watched your video when you first released it, and I re-pre watched it early this week as a warm up. Yesterday and today I slowed it down to .75 speed and went through it step by step for a final screening. Thanks for doing this, it took the pain out of the setup. Al
I still remember the eagerness I had watching your XT3 Setup Guide just after receiving mine for Xmas. The chills, man. You've grown so much since then, Chris

I would switch between Chris and Omar's video to set up my first fuji hahaha so nostalgic
If I were on the fence about a certain camera to buy starting out in photography, your videos alone would be enough to make me choose the Fuji X-T5. Thank you for all you do in making these videos!
Thanks for this very timely video Chris. I picked up my camera two days ago and was hoping you would do a tutorial as a planned to set it up today. And, there you were. I appreciate all that you do for Fuji shooters.
Great assistance in trying to keep the various combinations straight. As always you've provided clear instruction to help us get the most out of our Fuji cameras. My go to source for this - Thank you so much for the effort you put into this channel!
Just got my X-T5 so this was for sure my most stop/start/rewind video ever. Thanks for your advice and tips!
Some years ago I've a brand new Fuji camera and you was my "sensei" on X-system. You're doing it again, thanks for all your hard work!
With my X-T5 on order, this video couldn't have come at a better time . Thanks for posting Chris and I'm looking forward to more from you on this fantastic camera as and when.
Best Fuji photography channel on all of KZread. I've learnt more from you than I have from all other resources combined. Thank you!
New to Fuji and I just got the XT5. This video was a life saver as I was not making much progress with the 400 odd page manual. Thanks a lot !
Looking foward to more videos on the X-T5. Coming soon. I feel like Fuji listened as to what I wanted in a camera. This one is perfect for me. You are my go to guy.
Great intro. I am a professional photographer and HS Photo teacher going into my 4th Fuji X camera (XT1,XPro2,XE4 and now XT5) and still I learned a LOT. Thank you for doing this.
Hi Chris. I've been shooting with Olympus, then Nikon & returned to photography after a year. I bought the X-T5 today and this video was SO HELPFUL. Thank you!
Just upgraded from XT2 to XT5 and this is a brilliant refrersher as it has been ages since i went through that setup. You forget where all the settings are and with the XT5 there is so much more. Very clearly explained. Thanks Chris.
Kudos for this entire Fujifilm vlog! You and Simon d'Entremont make the best presentation of info--so enjoyable to watch, and easy to learn. When my X-T5 arrived today, I could not resist tossing the info packet up and off to the side...
Currently waiting for my new XT5 to be delivered today, my first Fujifilm kit after nearly 15 years of being loyal to Nikon! Thank you SO much for this video, it can be daunting switching to a different setup but you've made the process way less stressful. Subscribed!
Yes! Been waiting for this one. I’ve been going through mine, setting up the custom settings for stills and movie. Lots of fun.
Thanks Pal 2 Tech! I am grateful to be able to live vicariously through your channel.
Thank you so much for putting this information together! You saved me so much time and trouble! I just picked this camera up today, and with your guidance, with the setup, I will be shooting shortly.
Just went through my camera settings as I watched. I already use a lot of what you suggested but also found some settings I could change for the better, so thank you!
Love this channel, and this one was a massive help. I am all in on fuji but was missing this clear set up intro... brilliant. Thank you for creating this work.

Wow, David!! Thank you so much pal!!! This really helps out the channel and I so much appreciate all your support!!! 🙏 🙏 🙏 Cheers!!
Thanks for this! I’ve been in the Sony ecosystem since 2016 and just switched to Fuji with the X-T5 (delivered today) and I’m actually a little lost so this is really helpful for me. Thanks!
Thanks Chris. I’m learning so much from your videos. Not just about Fuji, but about the world of digital photography in general. I’m an old film fogey returning to photography after an absence of about 30 years and your straight-talking, clear instruction is just so helpful. All the best (from Australia). Now, do I upgrade my x-t3 to a 5? Rhetorical question of course, but I await your full review with interest!

Wow, thank you so much!!!! 🙏 🙏 I love hearing this and really appreciate the support. Cheers! and yeah, XT3 > XT5 is awesome!
Just received my camera, and this was exactly what I needed. Thanks so much for posting!
absolutely amazing crash course... love it....thank you. i just bought XT5 today and voila i don't need to read the manual only thing is you were very fast ... so i have to go back and forth but very informative... thank you again
Chris - Whoo Hoo I received my XT-5 today and even B4 unpacking I watched and saved your video. I will watch it multiple times. Thanks so much. Great video, like 95% of your settings and eagerly look forward to more. Now to go "touch n feel" that baby!!
Outstanding! I just upgraded my X-T3 to X-T5 today and used this video for setup. Thank you for all the help.
I want to give you a big thumbs up for laying out a sensible approach to setting up my Fujifilm XT-5. Having a solid background in film photography (and an being early adopter of digital) I have been long frustrated and driven to distraction by the multitude of non-specific and redundant controls built into pretty much all high end digital cameras. Your suggestions for setting up theXT-5 are practical, well presented and Much Appreciated!
Oh My gosh Chris, with this video you solved at least the half of the problem I had switching from SONY to FUJI XT-5, concerning the set-up. standing ovation
I found this so, so useful Chris, as I just took delivery of my new X-T5 yesterday morning! Perfect timing!!
This is the best video on setting up the XT-5 menus, THANK YOU PAL2TECH!
One of the beautiful things about the XT bodies is that small function button in front next to the finger grip. My Nikon doesn't have one and I'm not sure about other brands. Instead of assigning this to playback which can be accessed from the back while you’re looking at the screen, I assigned the Back Button Focus function to this button. With your index finger on the shutter button, your middle finger will fall naturally on this button, making back focus so easy. The rear button that has this function assigned out of the box is hard to use with your thumb if you have large hands.
Chris, first thing I did when I received my X-T5 was open this video and use your guide for setup. Terrific channel, please keep creating valuable content like this!
Thank you very much Chris! I just bought my x-T5 and appreciated a lot your configuration tips!
Just got my x-t5 after many years of DSLR. This is very useful thank you. Loving your videos.
Thank-you. I'm new to mirrorless, Fuji and this channel. This video was perfect for me. I look forward to delving into all your other videos as my Fuji journey continues.
This was so helpful. I am testing out a Fujifilm X-T5 and you just saved me so much time in figuring out how to set it up to simply get started. Thank you!
Thanks so much, Chris. I was hoping you'd do one of these! Perfect timing with the release and shipping of the XT5!

Fuji are releasing, or have released, so many new cameras, it's difficult to keep on top of it all. I ,recently, purchased a S10 and that will be my last body purchase for a number of years.
This was so quick, painless and helpful. appreciate you!
I picked up my XT-5 yesterday. So your "set-up video" has been posted just in time. 😉👍
My photography journey started with a Leica M4-P. Options to adjust focus, aperture and shutter speed and I really liked it like that.
Hey, thank you so much for all that you do with these videos. I've learned so much more than i ever would have on my own and I'm really enjoying this craft. I owe a big part of that to your dedication, engaging content and wonderful explanations of simple and complicated matters. You're my fuji wiki! Much love ❤
My brand new X-t5 was set up watching your video while the battery charged. Thankyou as always a great job.
Already got my X-T5 and have been waiting for this video from you… thanks Chris.
Sony video shooter (FX3 & 30) just got an X-T5 for stills & this channel is absolute gold ! Thank you 🙏
9:45 is exactly what I was hoping you'd cover. You're a lifesaver! Thanks! 😂
Just got mine yesterday with the 16-80 f4 lens. Loving it already. I ordered a battery charger from Amazon.
The Best tutor for beginners like me!!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you sir for this wonderful tutorial. I've just jumped from the X-T1 to the X-T5 and have a lot to learn. Now to dig in on all things X-T5 and Capture One!
Just finished setting up the xt5. Thank you Very helpful tips.
Hello there! I’d like to thank you for doing a step by step guide. I’m fairly new to Fuji and you made if very easy to follow. And yes, this is an entertaining video!!! Really appreciate you taking the time to make this. 🎉
Rewatched this so many times for the tip, thank you!!
Thank you for making those videos. They helped me a lot with my photography. And I also appreciate the personal touch.
Chris, I sold my XS-10 and got an XT5 in the mail yesterday. You were the first person I thought to look for guidelines to set up my new camera. Thanks so much!!

New subscriber. I am not a beginner (novice I would say). Came from Canon to Sony and now to Fuji. The X-T5 is my new obsession. So looking to learn more how to take pictures in the Fuji system. This tutorial is a good start. Thanks!
I just got the X-T5. This was VERY helpful! Thanks Chris! - Jesse
Hi Chris, just got my xt5, thanks for this setup guide....really very helpful. Love your enthusiasm, don't change!!
LOVE your chanel Chris! Thank you for this T5 content. Greetings from Scotland!
Thanks for the video, one of the best published on you tube, very clear and complete although fast. I gave myself this car for Christmas and I will play with it.
I just rented this camera for a Disney World trip. It is on the short list of camera I want to buy. This video helped me get it up and running quickly. Thanks!
My XT5 arrived on Saturday so thanks for this timely video. You always do a great job of clearly explaining the essentials, and keep it entertaining. Although I do have to call foul on the unboxing part. My battery was completely dead so there were a few hours between taking the camera out of the box and setting it up. Nice edit. 😂
This is the video I’ve been waiting for! Though I have realised now that I’m not a beginner any more. All the same, having watched this, there are a few things to go in and change!
Great, I followed your settings I had used for the XT4 and then the addition of this information was really helpful.
I went back in and just reviewed this. Thank you.
Thanks, got my XT5 this week. Changed a few of the settings to those you recommend. Thanks.
You Sir, just saved me a month of research. Many thanks for this!!!!!
Thank God for your channel. I literary just changed a few settings to my XT4 that I had in default.
This was unbelievably helpful - thank you!
Just got my new fuji xt5. Your tutorial on set up was fantastic . Great help. I watched when I first got my xt3. Appreciate what you do. Happy holidays
You Rock my friend! Thanks for being so nice and helping us out! You´re saving our asses! I´ve been using Nikons for the past 15 years... Fuji´s menus and configuration are rocket science to me. Well... it was, before your videos! Keep rocking!
Thank you very much, just ordered an xt5 so this is super useful!
Thank you Chris. I will be getting my first Fujifilm camera tomorrow and your videos a such a great help. Keep up the great work.
I'm 100% with you on the shoot without card setting default. It's the first thing that I do.
I finally got my XT5 and 35 mm f1.4 R lens! I’m so happy and excited and I’m slowly learning all the buttons and settings hahaha
Thank you so much Chris for this important video. !!
Thank you for all the help, Pal!
I just watched your XT3 guide to reset my camera for an upcoming model railroad show. I do enjoy your content and concise informational guides. Keep up the great work.
Oh man, this was super helpful. Just pulled my new camera out of the box. I like how you teach. Super clear💥
Thank you very much for your patience and passion
great video. Just got the XT5. thank you so much. i followed your recommendations!
Excellent, clear, and very helpful. Terrific job by pal2tech.
Many thanks for your great videos. Extremely useful and straight to the point. I learned a lot from you. I got my xT5 and I very happy with it.
Hi Chris. just a quick point about the sequencing of the changes you recommend. At 4.15 you suggest setting face/eye auto detect to on and then at 6.20 you suggest changing the photometry setting. However, once you've turned face/eye auto-detect on the photometry option gets yellowed out (as it is on your video at 6.32). I checked with the manual and that's what's supposed to happen. You may have done what I did and changed the photometry setting before turning on face-eye auto detect. However, the sequencing in your video might create a bit of confusion on this point. Otherwise I'm finding this very helpful - thank you!

Waiting for my silver and black XT5 with a red soft touch shutter release. I've already memorized most of the settings you've described so succinctly. Thank you.
Thanks, followed along with my XT5 - super helpful
Thank you for helping me set-up my XT-5 ❤
This is such a great video tool for a person that never had a camera of such potential. It is a bit frustrating to use and navigate through an endless list of options and settings but with this video, the initial setup it was much smoother. I had watched through a handful of your videos and after an evening playing around with it, I have finally started to like it and realized I made a good decision to pick up this camera! :)
Great video - thanks - have followed all the settings. Now have to work out how to use it!!
I've reviewed this video now, few days I got my x-t5 and after I already set it up according to my needs (I already was an x-t3 owner). I agree with you on some settings, and disagree on other ones, but it has been helpful in any case to let me (re)think to the various setup possibilities 👍🏻
I just love the Q, I use it all the time, just shows how different we all are.
Perfect timing Chris! My XT5 arrived a couple of days ago and some of the settings are a bit different from the XT4.
Great Video Chris!!
Hi Chris, I've just invested in this beautiful camera. I've been using Nikon for years but fancied seeing what this camera can do. Your tutorial has been so helpful so thank you so much. I'm currently in Thailand and there is so much to photograph.. I've been passionate about photography since I was a child and now I'm an old git at 60 but still very passionate. Thanks again. Brilliant tutorial. I have three Nikons and a Canon with me so if I can't work things out with this Fuji I have pretty good back up. I will work it out though thanks to you. I'm waffling now so so I will say goodbye but rest assured I'll watch some of your other videos.
Amazing video! Thank you for this! It made setting up my new camera sooo much easier ❤
