I&#8217;m rethinking that! \u00a0What do you gain with higher mega pixel sensors? \u00a0For a start more resolution, more pixels more detail, no question. \u00a0But how much more detail? \u00a0That is your call but in some serious pixel peeping, I found the difference is not as great as I thought it would be. \u00a0The X-T5 sure has a lot of resolution (40 mega pixels) \u00a0The 16 megapixel X-T1 still has a ton of sharpness and detail! \u00a0How about noise at higher ISO? \u00a0The image below is shot at ISO 6400 with the X-T1, if I \u00a0had shot it on the X-T5 the background out of focus green area would have shown more noise f or sure. \u00a0High ISO winner: \u00a0X-T1!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-26978\" src=\"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-960x640.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"580\" height=\"387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-960x640.jpg 960w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-270x180.jpg 270w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-880x587.jpg 880w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-580x387.jpg 580w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-350x233.jpg 350w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney2.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-26994\" src=\"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-960x640.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"580\" height=\"387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-960x640.jpg 960w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-270x180.jpg 270w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-880x587.jpg 880w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-580x387.jpg 580w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-350x233.jpg 350w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/billfortney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Fortney-2-1.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">So, is the X-T1 the best Fujifilm camera?
