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.
Retro Compact Collectors — Cyber-shot DSC-T700 (2008): A touchscreen Sony from 2008 — the DSC-T700 was ahead of its time with a 3.5" touch display, but belongs in a collection rather than a kit bag today.
