Fuji’s New Entry-Level X-A5 Features Improved Processing and 4K for $599

February 1, 2018 By Eric Reagan

The Fujifilm X-A5 is a new entry-level mirrorless camera that has a 24MP APS-C sensor and an improved processor that’s 1.5x faster than its predecessor. It also sports a new Fujinon XC 15-45mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS PZ kit lens in the $599 kit and is the first Fuji lens to sport a power zoom design. The X-A5 is available with black, pink or brown grips.

Fuji X-A5 Key Features

  • 24.2MP APS-C CMOS Sensor
  • 3.0″ 1040k-Dot Tilting LCD Touchscreen
  • UHD 4K Recording; Full HD at 60 fps
  • Hybrid AF System with Phase-Detection
  • 4K Burst Function for Stills at 15 fps
  • Multi Focus Mode for Focus Stacking
  • Maximum ISO of 12,800
  • Compact, Weighs 1.1 lb with Kit Lens
  • Bluetooth Connectivity for File Transfer

As you can see from the promo video above, the X-A5 is marketed toward the casual photographer who wants a little more flexbility and quality then you get from your smartphone. The size and weight of the X-A5 help it compete for space in a purse, coat pocket or satchel, while the 180° display and Bluetooth connectivity help get your photos to your smartphone for easier sharing online.

The Fuji X-A5 kit ships on February 8 for $599.95. You can pre-order it here at B&H Photo.

The new lens will be available on its own later for $299.95. Check it out here at B&H Photo.
