Highly not recommended Viltrox flash

Hotshoes should never be painted, this is friction zone and any paint is bound to be scracted off at some point If the hotshoe is tighter on the X-E5 than it is on your X-M1, then the issue is on Fujifilm for making their hotshoe tighter, not on Viltrox for not accounting on tiny diffrences in toler

Recreated Kodak Bright on Sony a6700

That really depends on who you ask. I haven’t personally used the X-E5, but I can share my experience with Fuji cameras in general. Keep in mind this is just my personal take. ​While I love the design and the out of the box colors, I’m honestly not a Fuji fanboy. I’ve used the X-S10 and X-T5 and bot

Whinge: Fuji no longer has an entry-level

I think Fujifilm really messed up with this generation’s budget models like the X-T50 and X-E5. They could’ve easily stuck with the older sensor (or even the lower-resolution one from the H2S) and just added IBIS. A few years ago, if you wanted to buy a Fuji, you had clear options: entry-level lines

Advice between X-T5, X-T50 and X-E5

X-T5 has the following advantages over the E and 50. 1/8000 mechanical shutter. 1/250 flash X sync. Weathersealed. Higher resolution EVF. 15fps burst. 2 x UHS II SD slots. Significantly better battery. USB 3.2 gen 2 @ 10gbps. FPS matters to me as I do wildlife and plane photography. https://www.dpre

FujiFilm X-E5 strap lug/eyelet fallen off

Crazy how all the influencers on social media are saying the X-E5 is more premium quality than the X100VI, X-T5, X-T50 yet this is happening. Quality is dropping across the board (not just Fujifilm) and prices are going up. Ridiculous.

Leaving the Sony A7CII to go back to Fuji: X-E5 or X-T50?

Hmm then to be honest I would go Nikon Zf. It has film recipes as well, built quality is way above Fujifilm. It has fantastic big EVF and best in the market manual focus assists to shoot with brilliant Voigtlander lenses. I wouldn't buy XE5/X-T50 for EVF experience. Choose X-T5 for better EVF if it
