The Fujifilm X-E5 is a 40.2MP APS-C mirrorless camera that features a single memory card slot that supports SD/SDHC/SDXC (UHS-II / UHS-I) memory cards.
SD cards support capacities of between 1-2GB, SDHC cards support 4-32GB and SDXC cards support 64GB-2TB.
For the best performance especially for continuous bursts we would recommend the faster UHS-II SDXC cards rather than the slower UHS-I cards. We also recommend formatting new cards in-camera before first use.

FAQs
How many images can be stored on a 64GB card?
The number of images that can be stored on a 64GB memory card in the X-E5 varies based on the image type that you are recording in. The following values are approximate because file size varies with the scene being shot:
- JPEG Fine: 2640
- JPEG Normal: 3950
- RAW Uncompressed: 730
- RAW Lossless Compressed: 1370
- RAW Compressed: 1940
How many minutes of video can be recorded on a 64GB card?
When recording in 4k 2160 you can record approximately 154 minutes of video. Shots over one hour in length will be split across multiple files.
Is a V90 rated UHS-II SDXC card required for video?
When shooting video with the Fujifilm X-E5 the maximum bitrate is 200 Mbps which is around 25 MB/s. So you don't need a V90 card to record video, a V60 or even a V30 rated card will work just fine. An SDXC card is recommended over SD or SDHC because this will avoid video files being split into 4GB chunks.
Are CFexpress Type B cards supported?
No, the X-E5 only supports SD/SDHC/SDXC (UHS-I / UHS-II) memory cards, CFexpress Type B cards will not physically fit the camera.
