Fujifilm X-T10 vs OM System OM-5

On this page, we will be contrasting the Fujifilm X-T10 versus OM System OM-5, one is a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the latter is a Advanced Mirrorless by competitors FujiFilm and Olympus. The image resolution of the Fujifilm X-T10 (16MP) and the OM System OM-5 (20MP) is relatively similar but the Fujifilm X-T10 (APS-C) and OM System OM-5 (Four Thirds) have different sensor measurements.

The Fujifilm X-T10 was introduced 8 years prior to the OM System OM-5 which is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras have the same body design (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before going right into a more detailed comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the Fujifilm X-T10 scores against the OM System OM-5 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

This is a preview of the gallery photos for Fujifilm X-T10 and OM System OM-5. The whole galleries are available at Fujifilm X-T10 Gallery and OM System OM-5 Gallery.

If you're looking to travel with your camera often, you're going to have to take into account its weight and volume. The Fujifilm X-T10 has exterior measurements of 118mm x 83mm x 41mm (4.6" x 3.3" x 1.6") along with a weight of 381 grams (0.84 lbs) and the OM System OM-5 has sizing of 125mm x 85mm x 50mm (4.9" x 3.3" x 2.0") and a weight of 414 grams (0.91 lbs).

Bear in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change based on the lens you have attached at that time. The following is a front view sizing comparison of the Fujifilm X-T10 and the OM System OM-5.

Considering size and weight, the portability rating of the Fujifilm X-T10 and OM System OM-5 is 83 and 80 respectively.

In many cases, it is very hard to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions merely by going over specifications. The pic below should give you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-T10 and OM System OM-5.

Plainly, both the cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X-T10 using its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the OM System OM-5 will deliver extra detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm X-T10 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
