First Look at the new Fujfilm X-T50
Introducing the Fujifilm X-T50
The X-T50 inherits the iconic design of the X-T Series, reminiscent of classic film cameras. Building on the success of the X-T30 the latest model has had a complete overhaul.
The Fujifilm X-T50 features a brand new design.
X-T50: Inspired by film
The X-T50 has a more rounded profile than previous models and now features a film simulation dial for those that enjoy shooting with the jpeg profiles. The new camera really feels like it's been designed for those who are inspired by film photography, but need the convenience of digital. The Film simulation dial aside, the X-T50 is pretty similar in design to the X-T5, but is smaller in pretty much every dimension.

The film simulation dial has 3 spaces for setting custom film profiles which is a nice addition. The X-T50 also includes the new Reala Ace film Simulation which is certainly growing to be one of my favorites.
X-T50: Flagship image quality in a small package
The Fujifilm X-T50 includes the same 40mp sensor X-Processor 5 that can be found in the flagship X-T5 and X-H2. This is a huge step up from the previous camera and offers incredible image quality. Paired with a prime lens like the 27mm F2.8 and the camera is really small. Body only the camera weighs just 438g, making it easy to carry around all day. The X-T50 does miss out on the weather sealing of the higher end models.
