X-T5vs GH7
GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Portraits & Landscape — X-T5 (2022): Fujifilm's finest stills camera — 40MP, 7-stop IBIS, and the most distinctive colour rendering available.
Video & Documentary — GH7 (2024): The GH7 is the GH series at its peak — phase-detect AF finally arrived, alongside 5.7K/60p open-gate, C4K/60p 10-bit 4:2:2, and ProRes RAW. A landmark video camera in the Micro Four Thirds format, and the most complete GH Panasonic has ever built.
