The Fujifilm X-M5 is expected to ship on the 21st in the United States, but Japan has released an interesting statement about the launch being November 28th in Asia. There is also something new about this announcement by Fujifilm:

“The mirrorless digital camera “FUJIFILM X-M5” being released in Japan will only have “Japanese and English” built-in language settings. Therefore, in consideration of the convenience of foreign customers living in Japan and tourists staying long-term, we will start a “language addition service” from November 28th. By using this service, you can add one language of your choice. Please check here for details of this service and how to apply.”

Fujifilm is planning a language addition service for the Fujifilm X-M5. Hopefully, this service will come at no additional charge and it makes me curious if they are running out of space for languages or if Fujifilm is just trying to get cameras to market as quickly as they can so localisation of the menus has been delayed. At least English speakers will be able to use Japanese cameras without issue.
