People should know this camera is for photo, not video. So the way they put together this body is amazing, compact body and looking great.

Fujifilm is the right company to bring back quirky cameras!

I like the round, reminds me of the daring fun shapes of classic American cars, beautiful and easier to hold.

Auto lever is great when you handout camera to other people. I do that quite often, mostly my daughter and it is an amazing feature that I cannot imagine not having on a camera now

Amazing first look :) I really like those type of review. And YEAH, what a quality of your video and sounds also.

Hey I just wanted to say, saw all the reviews and yours is by far my favorite. Great video! awesome camera!

What were the Fujifilm engineers thinking. The unique value proposition other than size for the X-T double digit cameras was the physical picture mode dial which allowed for very fast switching from photo to video or multiple exposures on the fly. Replacing that with film simulation dial is retrogressive and a big mistake in my view.

How exactly was it a "unique value proposition"? Having a dial to switch between 2 modes that you use maybe once per day was almost useless, at least in my workflow! I can see your point, but calling a cut PASM dial a "unique value proposition" is a bit beyond the truth.

The X-T50 is therefore more suitable for trendy people who want to exhibit their pictures on social media. Who needs a special wheel for filmsimulations?

I've been watching your videos since Canon 70D and you are still be best. I think it is the tilting screen that is massively a big feature vs the X-T5's left protruding screen. For us tilting screen lovers, this is a massive pro. Still hesitant to go for this X-T50 or the new X100VI.

Just waiting for mine to arrive on Tuesday. As a hobbyist photographer, I now like that the film sim dial is on top. I hate menu diving. Thanks for this excellent review. Just found your channel.

This was a great review with some really good tips. I would love you to do more on different setups since I have bought one. I like the look of the roundness but haven’t yet held it.

Very well explained. Thank you.

I simply love your reviews!!!!

Your reasoning is flawed. I read this all the time on the internet. People are saying things like „An upgraded MacBook Air is almost the price of a MacBook Pro“. Do you want the best specs for your money or do you want a device with the specs you are ACTUALLY going to use? You clicked this video, which indicates you are looking for a light travel camera. Compactness with high performance is what the X-T50 is all about. If you need the large X-T5, then get the X-T5. But it will probably be overkill and a waste of money. You won’t be needing all this power, and the tragic thing is, you don’t even know it.

Most people dont know that all this was still there in their cheapest camera called XT100 , where you could assign the dials to whatever you want, hence the left dial was always the simulations for me.

if this camera was around 900-1100 it would've been amazing. With the current price there are just more options.

Is any part of the camera made of plastic or feel cheap?

the xt10-30 went from entry level at $800 to a midrange camera at $1400.. i was actually excited for this camera but for that price ill hold on for the Xpro4 or just get a xt5

La xe-5 posiblemente ya no costará $800. La x-pro5 (pienso que la llamarán x-pro5) costará mucho más cara aún que la x-h2.

It's incomprehensible to me why you can't save entire film recipes to the dial. That would have been a killer feature. Does it at least still have this function from the menu itself? How many slots can be assigned there to saving full recipes?

@timd3546 you can save up to 7 custom recipes that can be accessed through the Q menu, which I learned about when I had the chance to play with the XT-50 a few weeks ago at a local camera store. Fingers crossed Fuji releases a firmware update that will allow us to use the f1-f3 on the dial for custom recipes!

They should allow to save a complete a film recipe to the fs1-2-3 settings. Not just a film simulation.

Does the Xt-50 have the same Smooth Skin Effect feature as the Xt5?

I really wish they use iso dial instead of film simulation dial on the XT-50

Is the Fuji X-T50 brand new the same price as a used Fuji XT4

Are you saying you can put any preset you can dream up in the FS1, 2, and 3 modes?

I don't think so. Custom recipes cannot be saved in those three slots, only the regular (preset) film simulations. Here's hoping a firmware update can change that!

Much prefer the roundness to the more jagged XT30, which felt a bit Praktica.

Im thinking getting xt32 but the tripod mount is a deal breaker, and then comes xt50 but that price is just...omg 😅😅😅

No weather sealing? 😢 Order cancelled.

No Doubt its a GREAT camera problem is....in Tokyo Japan as of 2024....the price difference between the XT-50 and XT-5 is only less than 100$usd...which is STUPID it should at least be...like more than 300$ difference...but Fujifilm keeps decreasing the amount of products being rolled off the line to increase the price....like the X100VI

What about programming recipes from Fuji Weekly?

@zy_cheng

Ай бұрын

Turning the dial will change only the Film Simulation parameter as of current firmware, so the rest (tone curve, grain, color chrome fx etc) stay the same regardless which film sim is selected on the dial. Bad news for recipes, but here's hoping Fuji might consider tweaking the software for this.

Fuji obviously couldn't think about anything useful to put on that left dial, so they put sim modes, which are useless for everybody shooting in raw.

Why are you not allowed to test autofocus

Replace the film simulation dial with an ISO dial. You will have a fantastic miniature x-T5. Discontinue your X-T5 production. You already have the X-H2 and X-H2S.

I wonder how horrible the battery life of this model is. I used the x-t30 before and the battery was atrocious. Now this has IBIS and the 40MP sensor. 🤔. I dig the look of this camera.

40 in chinese is "si shi" and both sounds like death in chinese(in a way) so maybe das a reason

they did de same with the S3 Pro and then S5 Pro

I would take the full frame sensor Canon R8 over this at that price point....

Such a bad idea not letting you save recipes on each individual sim. The C1-7 on the XH2 is a better option. That and the price means this is a hard pass.

Old battery, old viewfinder, less controls vs xt5 almost at the same price... It makes no sense

⁉️ Oh?️ no: The new shape no longer corresponds to Fujifilm's tradition of beautiful retro cameras such as the X-T20 or the X-T30. Hand on heart: Who needs an extra bike for film simulations? This can be solved with the two previous models with the "Film Simulation Series" function. Plus: From aperture 4.0 onwards, the older lenses deliver the same good results... The X-T50 is therefore more suitable for trendy people who want to exhibit their pictures on social media. To each his own....

But...the film sim dial IS a gimmick - you could always access these sims through the menu, so why give it it's own dedicated dial that isn't even customisable!!!

@@jimrothwell535 Firstly, the point has been missed here. The answer to your first question is no, not what I, and others are wanting. The forerunners to this model were all clearly small brothers to the main camera of the line...with same specs. This is what was anticipated with the release of the XT50, a carry around everyday camera with the same spec as the XT5. The second part is a bit of a silly response!! Do you really think that I would expect Fuji to make cameras to my needs? Come on. Also, who is talking about "evidence of more RAW shooters than Jpeg"?? Totally irrelavent to the point. There are many RAW shooters who would definitely prefer a dial that benefits the cost and spec of this camera. Sims have always been accessible to those who want them, so why change this on this range? Maybe the XE5 could be the one to trial this idea, not an expsensive serious camera - If you need any further evidence with the outrage this has caused....just read the comments on FujiRumors
