Description — Fujifilm X-A5
The Fujifilm X-A5 is a compact mirrorless camera centered on a 24MP APS-C sensor and an updated image processor rated approximately 1.5x faster than previous generations. The body is constructed from metal and leatherette, weighs just 361g, and measures 117 x 68 x 40mm — making it one of the more portable APS-C interchangeable-lens options available. It uses the Fujifilm X lens mount and supports storage on SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards.
The 3.0-inch tilting touchscreen LCD resolves at 1,040,000 dots and makes it easy to shoot from creative angles or frame selfies without contortion. Autofocus is handled by a 91-point hybrid system combining phase detection and contrast detection. Native ISO runs from 200 to 12800, and burst shooting reaches 6fps.
Video tops out at 4K/15p or Full HD/60p, with Film Simulation Modes — including Standard, Velvia, and Classic Chrome — available across both stills and video. Wireless connectivity includes both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Battery life is rated at approximately 450 shots per charge.
There is no weather sealing and no image stabilization of any type.
