FUJIFILM X-A5 Overview

Combining a retro look with modern functionality, the silver X-A5 Mirrorless Digital Camera from FUJIFILM is a mirrorless camera that sports a 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor and an updated processor that is 1.5 times faster than previous models. It is designed to be portable and easy to carry around, weighing only 1.1 lb with its included 15-45mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens. However, the camera still comes fully featured for a professional shooter, offering UHD 4K recording and Full HD video at 60 fps as well as an Intelligent Hybrid AF system with phase-detect points for lightning-fast focusing.

The X-A5 offers several functions and filters that aim to simplify your life while shooting. 4K Burst Function allows you to quickly produce stills at 15 fps, so you can select the best frame, while a Portrait Enhancer Mode helps ensure that skin tones are rendered in a pleasing way. A Multi Focus Mode is available for focus stacking, automatically merging 4K images and adjusting the required depth of field for the best result. Finally, seventeen advanced filters and eleven film simulation filters are offered to fit a variety of situations, including fog removal and HDR photography.

Operation is made easy thanks to the camera's tilting 3" LCD touchscreen, which comes with a notable 1040k-dot resolution and revamped GUI for more intuitive use. Once the screen is turned 180 degrees for taking selfies, the camera's rear command dial automatically switches functions to allow for easy control of the zoom and shutter release. The rotation also automatically activates an eye detection AF function, which helps ensure that the subject's face is sharply in focus. Other features of the X-A5 include a maximum ISO sensitivity of 12,800, up to 450 pictures per charge, and Bluetooth connectivity for transferring files to a smartphone, tablet, or directly to your INSTAX SP-3 printer.

question

Whats in the box? Battery charger? Camera strap? Etc...
Asked by: Anonymous
Yes to the strap and charger. It does not have a memory card. Plus the charger is one that plugs into the camera so if you get a spare battery you may consider an external charger that can hold two batteries. On a side note, I agree with Gordon that the camera takes fabulous photos. As I type I look up and enjoy a 36 x 36 center piece of a wall-collage that was taken with this camera. When we travel I carry something a little more and a handful of lenses so I do all of our charging and what not. My wife caries this camera and she loves it. The lens is simple (and auto focus which most of mine are not) but renders colors very well. My wife's only issue is that she would like more reach with the lens BUT she is unwilling to carry a longer lens thus the kit lens does suffice. Plus If I am with her I do have a medium telephoto that has auto focus that I pop on for her. All-in-all we are very pleased.

question

Why is it that no where in the specs does it say where the cameras are made? The pictures do not show the bottom plate. Why? Before I buy anything, I want to know where the item is made.

question

how are the macro capabilities ?
Asked by: barbara d.
The kit lens minimum focus distance is 12.9cm at wide angle(5.1 , measured from the sensor... that's 2 from the lens) and the magnification factor is x0.24. Comparing that with the celebrated 16mm f/1.4 which has a minimum focus distance of 15cm (5.9 ) and a magnification factor of x0.21, with the addition of OIS on this lens and focus stacking in camera, I'd say this combo makes a terrific macro toolkit.This is an interchangeable lens camera, with the right lens you can do great macro.One tip: try using flash if you shoot macro, you'll get far better result if you use that to freeze moving subjects; but, I am not sure how well this works with focus stacking.
