FUJIFILM X-E5 firmware update
Update, but read this firstWhat's new
- 1.12 (6 Apr 2026): minor bugs fixed.
- 1.11: fixes the menu cursor sometimes failing to follow the rear command dial when you turn it quickly while changing settings.
- If you update from a version before 1.10: wireless security is stronger and the pairing procedure changed, the WIRELESS COMMUNICATION options are removed from the menus, the instax SQUARE Link printer is supported, the iOS FUJIFILM Camera Remote app no longer connects (use FUJIFILM XApp), and Android Bluetooth pairing needs Bluetooth 4.2 or later.
Should you update?
Update, but read this first
A routine fix. Read first if your camera is below 1.10: after updating, use the latest FUJIFILM XApp on your phone.
How to update
- Check your version: with the camera off, hold DISP/BACK while you turn it on.
- Download the firmware (FWUP0036.DAT) from FUJIFILM's page (button below) and copy it to a memory card formatted in the camera.
- Use a fully charged battery. Put the card in, turn the camera on while holding DISP/BACK, and follow the screen to update.
- It takes up to about 5 minutes. Don't turn the camera off or touch its controls during the update.
You can also update from your phone with FUJIFILM's smartphone app: FUJIFILM's page (button below) explains how. You can update from any older version straight to the latest. Once updated, some data from the previous version cannot be restored, so save your settings first if you changed them.
