Fujifilm has launched a $200 rebate on the Fujifilm X-T5 with XF16-50mm bundle.

You can get the deal at BHphoto here, Amazon here, BestBuy here and Adorama here.

The Fujifilm X-T6 is getting closer, so I guess it’s time for Fujifilm to sell the remaining Fujifilm X-T5 stock.

I guess it’s only a matter of time until we see a nice deal also on this lens, which will also be replaced soon.

A trusted source has send me a sketch based of the real Fujifilm X-T6.

You can see it in full size – along with a rendering – at the very bottom of this article (or in the video above).

It shows the front of the Fujifilm X-T6 and reveals at least two key details:

  • there is an additional button on the front left of the top plate – there is nothing there on the X-T5
  • The Big Change: The sub-dial we’ve known since the Fujifilm X-T1—and which remained unchanged through the X-T2, X-T3, X-T4, and X-T5—is either completely gone or significantly thinner. I also don’t see the sub-dial front knob that we’ve had on the X-T1 through X-T5

FujiRumors already reported back in June – thanks to a new source – about the “reworked” and “more premium feeling” dials. And we can definitely see a change in this sketch.

If I soon receive additional sketches from other angles soon, I’ll update this article – so check back occasionally. If it takes longer, I’ll share them in future articles as soon as I get them—assuming I get them at all.

Also, I asked AI to create a rendering of the Fujifilm X-T6 based on the sketch, and I’ll share that rendering in this article, too.

To be clear: it’s just a rendering based on the sketch we received, not the real camera.

I’m sure that once the real Fujifilm X-T6 is unveiled, we’ll notice some differences from this rendering. And yet, both the sketch and the rendering already give us some intriguing first hints at the changes Fujifilm may introduce with the X-T6 compared to all its predecessors.
