Four years with the X-T5, pros and cons discussed; advises not to wait for X-T6.

Titled 'Rise and Fall' after almost two years; says it proved one of favorite cameras, but unclear what falls.

Great photography camera, limited video, AF upgrade worth it; bought right out of the gate.
video performance limitations
YouTube comment on DPReview TVCommunity
Upgrade from XT3 fully justified by AF, IBIS, battery and form factor; very satisfied.
YouTube comment on DPReview TVCommunity
Loves carrying the X-T5 everywhere; admits the Nikon Z6II produces cleaner files.
YouTube comment on DPReview TVCommunity
Praises the reviewer more than the camera; says the XT5 review ticks all the boxes.
YouTube comment on DPReview TVCommunity
X-T3/X-T4 weren't worthwhile upgrades, but the X-T5 definitely is.
YouTube comment on Christopher FrostCommunity
Surprised the review skipped the 7-stop IBIS; implies long handheld exposures possible.
