June 15, 2025

This week, Fujifilm’s launch of the X-E5 was the talk of the camera world, and our team has already shared early thoughts after using a pre-production version for a few days. We also investigated the community’s reaction to the exciting new camera and discussed why prices vary across countries (re: tariffs). 

We also published our studio scene results for the PowerShot V1 and discussed the upcoming complete redesign of the iPhone Camera app.

As always, we hope you enjoy the coverage and thanks for being part of our community.
