GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?

Street, Travel & Compact Everyday Shooting — X100T (2014): A polished step between X100S and X100F — the electronic rangefinder OVF mode was unique, and 16MP X-Trans delivers beautiful files at an accessible used price.

Professional Video & Hybrid Shooting — Lumix S5 (2020): The S5 is an outstanding video camera that also takes excellent stills. 10-bit 4K/60p, dual native ISO and 6.5-stop IBIS in a weather-sealed body is a compelling package. The contrast-detect AF is its main weakness vs Sony and Canon — but for controlled shooting it doesn't hold it back.

↓ Full specifications below

X100T (2014)

  • X100 series enthusiasts who want the rangefinder-era X100 experience at the lowest price
  • Street photographers who value the unique hybrid OVF with electronic rangefinder overlay
  • Travel photographers who want a compact fixed-lens APS-C camera on a tight budget
  • Those drawn to the classic X100 design before the X100F's resolution and joystick upgrade

Lumix S5 (2020)

  • Videographers who need 10-bit colour science in a full-frame body
  • Photographers who shoot video as a second discipline
  • Studio photographers who want full-frame IBIS at a lower price
