New Delhi, October 09, 2025 – FUJIFILM Corporation today announced the launch of the “FUJIFILM X-E5” (X-E5) in India. Priced at MRP INR 159,999 (Body only), the X-E5 becomes the latest addition to the X Series, combining outstanding image quality with a compact, and lightweight design.
The X-E5 is a lightweight and compact mirrorless digital camera, weighing approximately 445g*1, equipped with the back-illuminated 40.2 megapixel “X-Trans™ CMOS 5 HR”*2 sensor and the “X-Processor 5” high-speed image processing engine. X-E5 is the first in the camera series that features a powerful five-axis IBIS mechanism offering up to 7.0 stops in the center and 6.0 stops at the periphery*3. This makes it an effortless,” daily carry” that remains adaptable to the most challenging scenarios. For the first time in the X series, the camera features a top-plate crafted solely from machined aluminum. By combining sharp, flat edges with carefully curved surfaces, the top-plate delivers a smooth metallic texture and a high sense of rigidity, offering a premium feel when holding the camera. The new “Classic Display” mode*4 provides a clean viewfinder image with key information at the bottom of the frame. Combined with a body style that allows you to operate the dials and the lever with one hand, you can immerse yourself in image making with the camera to your eye.
Mr. Koji Wada, Managing Director, FUJIFILM India, said, “At FUJIFILM India, we are committed to delivering innovative products and solutions that embody our Group purpose of ‘Giving Our World More Smiles.’ By blending diverse ideas, unique capabilities, and extraordinary people, we aim to create solutions that bring joy and smiles to the world.’ With the launch of the FUJIFILM X-E5, we are bringing the perfect balance of classic design, modern innovation, and accessible performance ensuring that both enthusiasts and professionals can immerse themselves in the joy of photography.”
Mr. Arun Babu, Associate Director and Head of Digital Camera, instax™ and Optical Devices Division, FUJIFILM India, further added, “The FUJIFILM X-E5 is designed to resonate with the evolving needs of Indian photographers who value style, convenience, and uncompromised image quality. Its intuitive operation, elegant design, and immersive features such as the Classic Display mode and customizable film simulations make it a companion that elevates the creative journey. With this launch, we aim to inspire a new wave of creators across India to rediscover the essence of photography.”
The X-E5 retains the classic style of the X series while embodying an innovative design that pursues elegance. It is equipped with features and operability that inspire the joy of photography. Catering to a wide range of users, from photography enthusiasts to those using a digital camera for the first time, this camera offers the delight of owning a sophisticated tool and the excitement of immersing oneself in the world of photography.

Product Features
(1) A product design that embodies a classic yet highly sophisticated presence.For the first time in the X series, the top-plate is carved from a single piece of metal. The distinct tapered design on the rear of the top plate enhances the metallic texture while improving the operability of the dials, ensuring a seamless and comfortable shooting experience.
The newly designed Film Simulation dial features a precision-cut indicator window that minimizes the gap between dial and body for an exact finish. Additionally, you can individually set Film Simulation and image quality settings to the FS1-FS3 positions, allowing you to save your own FS recipes.
- Refinement is central to every aspect of X-E5’s design. For example, the viewfinder and diopter adjustment control fit flush with the body. By refining vertical and horizontal elements, the design preserves the essence of a traditional camera while exuding a sophisticated presence.
- A stylish rope-type shoulder strap is included. It complements the sophisticated camera design.
(2) Features and operability that immerse you in the world through the viewfinder
- Equipped with a retro and minimalist “Classic Display” mode for the EVF, inspired by the old film cameras. The information on the EVF has been simplified as much as possible. Combined with a body style that allows you to operate the dials and the lever with one hand, you can immerse yourself in image making with the camera to your eye.
- The X-E5 has a new Surround View function that displays the area outside the shooting range as a semi-transparent or line pattern according to the aspect ratio. While looking through the viewfinder, users can easily switch between these two modes using a lever, providing a shooting experience that is similar to an OVF, even though it is an EVF.
- A control lever is mounted on the front of the camera, offering customizable functionality such as switching VIEW MODE, changing aspect ratios, and adjusting the digital teleconverter magnification. This ensures exceptional operability and versatility.
(3) Powerful in-body image stabilization and advanced features for expanded creative possibilities
The detection accuracy of the gyro sensor has been improved, and we also adopted a new algorithm that enhances responsiveness to camera shake. Thanks to the latest technologies, the camera realizes 5-axis compensation performance of up to 7.0 stops at the center and 6.0 stops at the periphery. The compact body is equipped with powerful image stabilization, allowing for comfortable shooting across a wide range of scenarios.
- The camera features a digital teleconverter function that allows 1.4x and 2.0x zoom levels. Equipped with the high-resolution “X-Trans™ CMOS 5 HR” sensor, it enables zooming with minimal loss of image quality, making it versatile for a wide range of shooting scenarios.
- The rear tilting monitor can be flipped upward and forward facing up to 180 degrees, which can accommodate a wide variety of compositions, from high to low angle, as well as selfies.
- The X-E5 is capable of shooting in 6.2K/30P resolution. It features a tracking AF function during video recording, ensuring high-quality and smooth footage.
(4) Equipped with a high-performance sensor and high-speed image processing engine to achieve high image quality and high-performance AF
- The fifth generation of the X series is equipped with the back-illuminated 40.2 megapixel “X-Trans™ CMOS 5 HR” sensor. The latest image processing algorithms deliver high resolution while maintaining a high signal-to-noise ratio.
- Because the improved pixel structure allows more light to be captured efficiently, ISO 125, which was the extended sensitivity in the previous model*5 can be used as the normal sensitivity. In addition, the electronic shutter can be set to a shutter speed of 1/180000 sec. at the fastest, achieving highly precise control of exposure time.
- The X-E5 features an AI-based subject detection AF, developed using deep learning technology to detect animals, birds, cars, motorcycles, bicycles, airplanes, trains, insects, and drones*6.
- The latest AF predictive algorithm provides high tracking performance for moving subjects and high precision AF in low-contrast environments.
