Photons to Photos: Fujifilm X-A5 is a Solid Performer


The Fujifilm X-A5 is a solid performer when it comes to PDR and it actually performs almost equal with the much more expensive Sony a6500. I hope we get to see how Fujifilm’s APS-C cameras compare to the new Sony a6400 and future Sony a7000/a6700 soon. If you want to take a closer result at Photons to Photos’s data you can do so here.
