Fujifilm X-E5 Camera with XF 23mm f/2.8 Lens Kit Black in More Detail
Fujifilm XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR Lens
The XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR lens (black) is an impressively compact and lightweight lens, which weighs just 90g with a total length of only 23mm, which is perfect for the equally portable X-E5 camera body in this kit.
Its optical construction includes eight elements in six groups, with two aspherical elements to ensure sharp results across the frame while minimising distortion and aberrations. With this versatile 35mm equivalent field of view, the lens is perfect for everyday subjects including street, travel, and lifestyle photography, while a 20cm minimum focusing distance adds flexibility to capture close-up and tabletop shots.
A rounded 11-blade aperture captures smooth, circular bokeh, and Fujifilm has provided a fast DC autofocus motor to ensure solid focusing performance for both stills and video. Finished in weather-sealed metal with a stylish low-profile design, this lens is a discreet option with excellent image quality.
Sample with XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR. Camera settings: 1/640 sec. f/8. ISO 160
High-Resolution APS-C Sensor and X-Processor 5
At the heart of the Fujifilm X-E5 is a 40.2MP X-Trans CMOS 5 HR APS-C format sensor and the X-Processor 5, which deliver exceptional resolution and image quality while keeping power consumption and heat to a minimum.
The back-illuminated sensor design improves light-gathering efficiency, with a low ISO 125 now offered as standard. With its compact form, the X-E5 is one of the most portable models to feature Fujifilm’s fifth-generation imaging pipeline, and the electronic shutter allows for precise exposure control down to 1/180,000 sec with the Electronic shutter, offering extensive versatility when shooting in very bright conditions or with wide-apertures.
Intelligent Autofocus with AI Subject Detection
Fujifilm’s Intelligent Hybrid AF (TTL contrast AF / TTL phase detection AF) system combines phase-detection and contrast-detection with deep learning AI subject detection. The camera tracks subjects including:
- people
- animals
- birds
- cars
- motorcycles
- bicycles
- airplanes
- trains
- insects
- drones
This provides the user with more confident focusing across a whole range of everyday subjects, which you might encounter. The AF system features more phase-detection pixels and covers almost the entire frame for precise focusing, even with moving subjects or in low light. A variety of tracking options are available, including Wide/Tracking AF, Zone AF and single point AF, with phase detection down to an impressive -7.0EV, which equates to extremely dark environments.
Sample with XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR. Camera settings: 1/500 sec. f/8. ISO 160
Creative Photography with Film Simulations
The X-E5 includes 20 of Fujifilm’s classic Film Simulation modes, which are accessible via a new precision-cut top-plate dial for fast access and user customisation. Users can create and save their own style recipes for consistent results across photo projects.
The complete list of Film Simulations in the X-E5 include:
- PROVIA/Standard
- Velvia/Vivid
- ASTIA/Soft
- Classic Chrome
- REALA ACE
- PRO Neg.Hi
- PRO Neg.Std
- Classic Neg.
- Nostalgic Neg.
- ETERNA/Cinema

- ACROS + Ye Filter
- ACROS + R Filter
- ACROS + G Filter
- Black & White
- Black & White + Ye Filter
- Black & White + R Filter
- Black & White + G Filter
- Sepia
Additional photography modes include bracketing, panorama and pre-shot capture, which can record up to Approx. 20fps (1.29x crop) before and 135 frames after the shutter is pressed, so you never miss a moment.
A digital teleconverter has been added, which provides 1.4x and 2.0x zoom crops while maintaining good levels of image quality thanks to the high-resolution sensor.
Classic Rangefinder-Inspired Design
This is the first ever Fujifilm camera to feature a top-plate milled from a single piece of aluminium, combining clean lines with a premium finish and high rigidity. The 0.39-inch OLED EVF (Approx. 2.36 million dots) includes a new Classic Display mode, showing only essential information to mimic traditional film camera layouts.
There’s also a new Surround View mode, which overlays external frame lines, in order to create an OVF-like shooting experience. The tilting touchscreen is a 3.0 inch Tilt-Type Touch Screen Colour LCD Monitor, with Approx. 1.04 million dots. This flips up to 180° for more versatility with shooting angles and selfies, while a redesigned front control lever adds customisation and quick access to key tools.
The LCD offers familiar touch control, with gestures for operation and playback including pinch, swipe and double tap, that will feel intuitive to many users.
Video Recording and Vlogging Tools
The X-E5 supports high-quality video at up to 6.2K (16:9) at 30p, with Full HD recording at up to 240fps for dramatic slow motion effects. During video recording subject tracking AF is active, ensuring smooth and consistent focus even when recording rapidly moving subjects.
The compact body houses a redeveloped five-axis in-body stabilisation system, which is rated to 7.0 stops (centre) and 6.0 stops (periphery) which is ideal for handheld vlogging and content creation, even in darker conditions.
Battery, Buffer and File Formats
The Fujifilm X-E5 is powered by the ubiquitous NP-W126S lithium-ion battery, providing solid performance with approx. 300 frame battery life (400 in economy mode) for still images, plus USB-C recharging.
Image creators gain access to a wide variety of file formats, including JPEG, HEIF, RAW, and TIFF, to suit any workflow. The camera supports 14-bit RAW recording, and 10-bit 4:2:2 HEIF, allowing for a choice between file size and tonal range when needed.
Sample with XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR. Camera settings: 1/4000 sec. f/2.8. ISO 160
Thanks to its high-speed buffer and fast X-Processor 5 engine, the X-E5 can capture:
- Over 1,000 JPEGs at up to 8fps with the mechanical shutter
- 79 compressed RAW files, or up to 56 lossless compressed RAWs depending on frame rate
- 20–30 RAW+JPEG combinations at full mechanical speeds
- At reduced burst rates (e.g. 3–5fps), users can capture up to 1000+ RAW files, offering immense flexibility when speed isn’t critical
These make sure that the X-E5 is a great option not only for individual shots but also for longer bursts to capture action, while giving creators plenty of options for editing and storage.
Connectivity and Everyday Usability
Despite being so compact, the camera is designed for on-the-go storytelling, and the X-E5 features comprehensive connectivity to support your content creation. This includes:
- USB Type-C 10Gbps
- Wi-Fi
- Bluetooth 4.2
- Micro HDMI port
- 3.5mm microphone input
- Hot shoe (Dedicated TTL Flash compatible)
- Frame.io
Additionally, the X-E5 integrates with Frame.io Camera to Cloud without any additional accessories. Users can connect to the internet, authenticate to frame.io, and upload photos and videos, helping to streamline your workflow from shooting to editing, as well as nature collabs and shared working.
The interface supports easy transfer to mobile devices or direct tethering, and a single SD UHS-II card slot ensures cost-effective and easily obtainable storage.

Our Verdict
The X-E5 camera in this all-black finish strengthens Fujifilm’s reputation for creating highly desirable mirrorless cameras with powerful features that are packed into a compact, stylish exterior. With its offset rangefinder-style EVF and classy top plate, the body is as functional as it is beautifully designed, delivering an excellent feature-set for stills and video content creation.
The familiar 40.2MP APS-C sensor and X-Processor 5 bring high-end performance with advanced intelligent subject detection AF, high-resolution 6.2K/30p video and up to 240fps for slow motion effects. You can also shoot bursts at up to 20fps using the electronic shutter, with a digital teleconverter adding versatility when framing distant subjects with this and any other prime lens. The user experience is particularly enjoyable, and Fujifilm has added a dedicated Film Simulation dial alongside their traditional buttons and dials for quick, intuitive operation.
When paired with the new XF 23mm f/2.8 R WR lens, this kit offers a classic 35mm equivalent field of view, which is ideal for numerous genres from street to lifestyle photography and everyday content. It’s no coincidence that this matches the hugely popular X100VI Digital Camera, which also features a 23mm lens, albeit without the ability to switch focal lengths.
The X-E5 and 23mm lens kit is appropriately small, sharp when shooting wide open, and ideal as a walk-around system for telling your story while on the go. Whether upgrading your camera, starting from fresh, or adding this lightweight kit alongside your professional setup, the X-E5 and 23mm lens kit is a stylish choice for all levels of creator.
