Yesterday I leaked the mock-ups of the Fujifilm X-T5, which you can see here.

You can notice that the mock-ups show a D-Pad and a dedicated manual MCS switch (as opposed to the X-H2/S, which have an FN button there)

Since I never specifically rumored the D-Pad and MCS switch, quite often the question came up in the comments asking me if this means that MCS and D-pad are confirmed. So let me answer this very clearly in a dedicated article: yes, the Fujifilm X-T5 will have a manual MCS switch and a D-Pad.

Fujifilm X-T5 rumors recap:

• X-T5 announcement November 2
• shipping in November
• 40 megapixel sensor of X-H2
• no stacked 26MP version planed
• no vertical battery grip option at all
• 3 way tilt screen
• X-T5 body only to cost $1,699 and €1,999
• Movie/Stills switch (no metering mode switch like on X-T3)
• XF30mmF2.8 Macro Announcement November 2
• no 8K video
• black and silver version available
• “old” AF joystick design of X-T4
• X-T5 will be smaller than Fujifilm X-T4
• almost perfectly accurate X-T5 mock-ups (confirmation of manual MCS switch and D-Pad)

Ok guys, so how does the Fujifilm X-T5 look like?

Well, according to our sources you could basically imagine it as a smaller X-T4 with the 3 way tilt screen of the Fujifilm X-T3.

But there are some minor details that we will try to illustrate with some renderings we made below.

And to be clear: what you see below is NOT the real Fujifilm X-T5, but the final thing will be very close to what you see here. The only difference between these mock-ups and the real Fujifilm X-T5 will be that the size of the X-T5 (for example the real X-T5 is a bit narrower) and the grip is slightly different. The mock-ups use the grip of the X-T4 because that grip is closer to the real X-T5 than the grip of any other X-T camera.

Overall, let’s put it down like this: these mock-ups are so close to the real Fujifilm X-T5, that when the real X-T5 leaks very soon, you will find the leaked images very boring ;).

Lets start with the front:
