CLEVER SUPPLY CO. - The best camera straps for the everyday carry photographer https://cleversupply.co?ref=Ry85p [Referral Link - Supports my biz!] If you clicked this video, it’s probably because you’re curious about the Fuji X-E5 — the design, the film simulations dial, the everyday carry hype, and whether it’s actually worth the price jump. But this isn’t a typical gear review. This is a real-world breakdown of why I bought the XE5, how it fits into my professional camera lineup, what surprised me (in good and bad ways), and the exact accessories and mods I’ve added to build out my ideal everyday carry setup. As a hybrid shooter who primarily uses two Sony A7 IV bodies for professional wedding photography, filmmaking, and podcast production, I wasn’t looking for another “workhorse” camera. I was looking for something inspiring. Something small. Something beautiful. Something I’d actually want to grab every day. In this video, I cover: • Why I picked up the Fuji XE5 • How it compares to my Sony A7 IV setup • Everyday carry vs. professional workflow use • My honest thoughts on the image quality (especially video) • The surprising “computational” look I’m noticing • Sharpness differences between the 23mm pancake lens and 35mm f/2 • Whether the 40MP APS-C sensor lives up to expectations • The premium build quality (and one small detail I don’t love) • Every accessory and mod on my camera My Fuji XE5 Setup (Accessories & Mods) • Soft shutter release button • SmallRig thumb grip • Walnut wood L-bracket grip • Square metal lens hood • Leather strap from Clever Supply Co This camera is positioned as a premium everyday carry camera — something that blends lifestyle, design, and serious specs. But is it actually delivering where it matters? Is the video quality soft? Is IBIS affecting image rendering? Is the 40MP sensor over-processing? Or did I just get a weird copy? If you own the Fuji XE5, I’d genuinely love to hear your experience — especially around video performance and sharpness. Drop your thoughts below. This is for: • Photographers considering switching to Fuji • Sony shooters curious about a compact alternative • Content creators looking for a hybrid lifestyle camera • Anyone debating whether the Fuji XE5 is worth ~$2,000 • Creators building an everyday carry camera kit If you’re into camera gear, filmmaking, wedding photography, hybrid shooting, or building a creative lifestyle setup — this one’s for you.
