Fujifilm X-T50 + XC 15-45mm F3.5-5.6 OIS PZ (black) (6370FJF)

Fujifilm X-T50 + XC 15-45mm F3.5-5.6 OIS PZ (black). The kit consists of the Fujifilm X-T50 (black) camera and the XC 15-45mm F3.5-5.6 OIS PZ lens. The "Fujifilm X-T50" is a classic-style, mid-range APS-C mirrorless camera. It is built using the 40 MP "X-Trans" sensor used in the X-T5 and X-H2, and features image stabilization. Furthermore, most of the X-T5 functions have been implemented in a smaller and more affordable body. The "Fujifilm X-T50" features built-in image stabilization—the first in this line of cameras. Until now, one had to choose between X-Sx0 cameras, which had stabilization and DSLR-style command dials, or non-stabilized X-Tx0 models with shutter speed dials; now, you can simply make your decision based on which control system you prefer. It is rated to provide up to 7.0 EV of correction, using a combination of gyroscope data and live view image analysis to detect and correct motion.


 


 





 


 


 


 


 


 


40 MP SENSOR AND X-PROCESSOR 5




The X-T50 is equipped with a 40 MP "X-Trans" sensor and the latest "X-Processor" from the X-T5. This combination ensures not only the same image quality as the X-T5 but also many of this camera's features. This includes the latest AF algorithms included in the X-T5 f/w 2.0, and all of this camera's subject recognition modes. The X-T50 also includes the "Camera-to-Cloud" function, allowing photos to be uploaded directly to the "Frame.io" sharing platform via "Wi-Fi," as well as features like video autofocus tracking by tapping, which were recently implemented in the X-T5.


 


 


 

FILM SIMULATION DIAL




Following the implementation of image stabilization, the most significant update may be the film simulation dial located on the left shoulder of the camera. It replaces the drive mode selector found on previous X-Tx0 models. While it might seem like a minor detail, given that all "Fujifilm" models allow you to choose film simulation color modes, the addition of a direct control is a smart step for a camera like this. The difference between knowing a menu option exists and being constantly reminded of its presence every time you pick up the camera is vast. A direct control point also significantly lowers the barrier to using that feature. Every camera on the market has several color modes, some more attractive than others, but "Fujifilm's" choice of typically subtle, attractive, and memorable modes (thanks to film names) helps create some of the best JPEGs. The visibility and simplicity of their selection will undoubtedly encourage more X-T50 photographers to use them. It is not perfect, as it is a twelve-position dial for a camera with fourteen film simulations, where one position hands control over to the camera's command dials. However, it is easy enough to assign three custom dial positions, with the ability to specify a simulated color filter for monochrome modes, as long as you remember that this option is in the main IQ menu rather than the setup section.


 


 


 


 

6.2K VIDEO




The Fujifilm X-T50 offers essentially all the X-T5 capabilities in the video realm—it can record 6.2K video at up to 30p (or "HQ" 4K video) from a 1.23x cropped sensor area. It can also record sub-sampled 4K from the full sensor width up to 30p or up to 60p with a 1.14x crop. As in the case of the X-T5, you must directly choose how much detail you want to capture and how well the shutter is controlled. It also features video autofocus tracking by tapping (implemented in the X-T5 only at the end of April), F-Log2, auto exposure options, a red frame outline when recording, and control over front and rear tally lights. The Fujifilm X-T50 can output a data stream via HDMI that "Atomos" or "Blackmagic" external recording devices can encode accordingly as "ProRes RAW" or "Blackmagic RAW." The only near-exclusive X-T5 video feature not offered is the ability to attach an optional fan unit to extend the camera's recording duration.


 


 


 





 


 


ALL-NEW BODY



While the X-T50 and X-T30 II belong to the same family in appearance, the X-T50 features an entirely new body. Instead of being essentially rectangular with rounded corners when viewed from above, the new cameras have fully curved ends and a forward-protruding extension at the top of the front grip. This makes the camera wider than its predecessor, but not as deep, despite the addition of in-body stabilization. The redesigned grip not only makes the camera more reminiscent of the X-T5 but also makes it easier to hold firmly. The camera's AEL button has been moved slightly—it is now not next to the rear command dial, but above the three buttons located on the back of the camera. The Q Menu button is still on the tip of the rear thumb grip. The X-T50 has the same AF controller as the X-T5, but it is located slightly further back on the rear of the body, making it slightly less comfortable to operate. However, its role becomes somewhat less significant due to the implemented subject recognition AF function, as this means that if you are trying to capture one of the subjects the camera can recognize, you do not need to set the AF precisely on the chosen object for the camera to focus on it. As with other "Fujifilm" cameras, face detection and subject recognition modes are completely separate. This is a positive thing as you can set a button to turn "Eye AF" on and off, but it means you will have to set two buttons if you want to switch from subject mode to face detection mode and back (turning one button on and then off will return you to the standard AF mode, rather than the mode that was previously active). There is still a pop-up flash in the viewfinder well, but as before, this limits the size of the viewfinder screen and optics, so the X-T50 continues to offer one of the smallest viewfinders in its class. The X-T50 still uses a 2.36 million [px] OLED viewfinder panel, which is competitive but not exceptional compared to analogous cameras, though its 0.62x magnification indicates it is unusually small. The rear screen has also not changed; it features a tiltable up/down readable LCD screen, with a 3.0-inch, 1.62 million [px] panel that is shared with the X-T30 II.


 


 


 





 


 


 


XC 15-45mm F3.5-5.6 OIS PZ LENS


 


The "FUJINON XC 15-45mm F3.5-5.6 OIS PZ" covers a commonly used focal length from 23 mm to 69 mm in 35 mm format equivalent and is the smallest and lightest interchangeable zoom lens compatible with the "X-series." Pairing this lens with a compact, lightweight "Fujifilm" mirrorless camera will allow you to enjoy excellent portability and convenient shooting. The composition of 10 elements in 9 groups, including three aspherical lenses and two ED lenses, ensures excellent resolving power at all zoom positions, with a length of just 44.2 mm* (in retracted position) and a weight of only 135 g. This lens covers a commonly used focal length from 23 mm to 69 mm (35 mm format equivalent), making it suitable for both landscapes and portraits. Since the wide-angle end is equivalent to 23 mm, this lens is suitable for selfies with two people or background photography when used with a camera featuring a 180° tilting LCD screen, such as the FUJIFILM X-A5. Using the widest angle position, photographers can shoot objects approximately 5 cm from the lens end and achieve a maximum magnification of 0.24x. This lens is ideal for those who want to photograph food, flowers, or small accessories in close-up. Creating a small, collapsible lens became possible through the use of electronic zoom. When the camera is turned on, the lens automatically extends and is ready to shoot. By turning the zoom ring, two different zoom speeds can be selected. The lens position moves at a constant speed, making zooming smooth when filming movies. The electronic zoom includes 3.0-stop optical image stabilization technology, meeting CIPA recommendations, which helps photographers shooting in low-light conditions. The internal focusing AF system uses a stepping motor that controls lightweight focusing elements to ensure autofocus operates quickly and quietly.
