What these focal lengths actually give you on the Fujifilm X-T5
The Fujifilm X-T5 has an APS-C sensor, so it sees a 1.5× crop of what each lens projects. Every focal length below therefore frames 1.5× tighter than its marked number. That matters for portraits: an 85mm frames like 128mm on the Fujifilm X-T5, which is tight for head-and-shoulders in a small room. A 50mm gives you the classic 75mm portrait look instead.
