Verdictwhich should you buy?

X-Pro2 — Street, Documentary & Travel Photography: The X-Pro series at its most balanced — 24MP X-Trans III, weather sealing, and a refined hybrid viewfinder that made it a street photography benchmark.

X-T5 — Portraits & Landscape: Fujifilm's finest stills camera — 40MP, 7-stop IBIS, and the most distinctive colour rendering available.
