For someone that comes from a cell phone, the XA5 will be a good first camera. For someone who is more use to the performance of a DSLR, higher end mirrorless, the XA5 will be a disappointment. Image quality is good in good light but not stellar and does not blow me away.
The new Fujifilm X-A5 replaces the 18-month-old Fujifilm X-A3, which used to be Fuji's entry-level X-Series camera until the X-A10 was launched. For consistency, we'll maintain the X-A5 as an entry-level camera. So what is new 18-months on Not as much as we would hope.
This camera produces the best color images I've seen! The price was great and I love the retro look! I highly recommend it!

Worth waiting on a wait list for this to come in stock. Great camera, neat small easy to handle. I chose the Brown version. The camera is well made, I love the new lens too. Picture quality is excellent, with the usual wonderful Fuji colours.
