In short

Why it's the recipe body
The Fujifilm X-T4 is a masterclass in balancing modern tech with classic photography charm. Its DSLR-style form factor offers a comfortable grip, while the 26.1 MP X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor and X-Processor 4 ensure stunning image quality. The vari-angle touchscreen adds versatility, making it a joy to compose shots from any angle. With in-body image stabilisation and a robust build, the X-T4 stands as a reliable companion for both stills and video, anchored by its ability to maximise the potential of Fujifilm's beloved film-simulation recipes. Whether you're shooting in challenging light or capturing fast action, this camera handles it all with aplomb, delivering exceptional results straight out of the box.
The X-T4, with its advanced X-Trans IV sensor, embraces a new era of film-simulation recipes, supporting Classic Negative, Eterna, and Clarity among others. It fully benefits from the X-Trans IV's enhancements, unlike earlier bodies like the X-T3, which lack Clarity and other features. Plus, it allows white-balance shift to be saved per custom slot, offering greater control and creativity for photographers.
The X-T4, released in 2020, introduced IBIS to the X-T series, revolutionising its versatility.
Compared to the X-T3, the X-T4 includes IBIS and a vari-angle screen, enhancing flexibility.
