Fujifilm X T5

What works

  • 40MP X-Trans sensor — highest resolution APS-C for landscape and studio
  • Fujifilm film simulations produce outstanding JPEGs in-camera
  • Physical dial controls for shutter, ISO, and exposure — tactile shooting experience

What doesn't

  • No 4K/60p — significant limitation for hybrid shooters
  • Phase-detect AF struggles with fast erratic subjects
  • X-Trans sensor requires specialized RAW processing (Capture One or Lightroom)

Sony A6700

What works

  • AI subject recognition AF — best-in-class for APS-C tier
  • 4K/120p slow motion — unavailable on X-T5
  • More affordable at ~$1,399 vs X-T5's ~$1,699

What doesn't

  • 26MP resolving power trails X-T5's 40MP in large prints
  • Sony JPEG color science less distinctive than Fujifilm film simulations
  • Lacks physical ISO/shutter dials — more traditional dial-menu interface

Bottom line

Our pick: Sony A6700.
