Fujifilm X-T30 Mirrorless Digital Camera, Black

Product Information

Other controls and playback functions are navigated either using buttons and a joystick at the rear of the camera, but also using the touchscreen which will feel familiar to smartphone and tablet users. The real differences between the various ISOs is most visible when enlarged greatly as I show below. While Sony does this better, this Fuji is way ahead of Nikon's or Canon's full-frame mirrorless which usually require manual finder brightness adjustment as yo move indoors or outdoors. Colors are beautifully vibrant, and images have bags of detail – and those film simulation modes are always fun to experiment with.

In very harsh lighting situations, this allows you to maximize the dynamic range of the sensor for your JPEGs beyond anything Fujifilm has offered before.Using the latest technology, image quality in X-T30 II’s AUTO/SP mode has been taken to a new level. Between its 8 frames-per-second mechanical shutter, and 20 frames-per-second Electronic Shutter, keeping up with the action is well within your grasp. From the dial-based operation, and compact, lightweight body, to the latest-generation APS-C sensor, it lights up the imagination and inspires creativity. When printed or displayed at reasonable size as I'm showing below, images from the X-T30 look the same at any ISO from ISO 80 up to ISO 12,800, and the only thing that changes at ISO 25,600 (H) is a slight red shift and just a little bit of blotchiness at ISO 51,200 (H).

I'd suggest that Fuji shouldn't lock-out manual AF point override in FACE DETECT, now we have to manually deactivate FACE DETECT if it insists on locking-on to something wrong. Although it’s a relatively minor upgrade over its predecessor, overall it’s an excellent mid-range camera that’s well suited to travel and everyday photography.If you have flicker reduction or the silent electronic shutter activated (or possibly in other modes as well), the flash simply won't turn on.

With the X-T30 you get Fujifilm's latest AF system, along with plenty of direct controls and a tilting touchscreen, all in a smaller body. No Prontor-Compur (PC) terminal; use the built-in flash to trigger your slaves or just use a hot-shoe adapter for corded sync.Live color RGB histograms displayed before you press the shutter (something neither Sony nor Nikon can do except on playback when it's too late), but you have to activate this in the menu system (see my User's Guide). The design clearly takes cues from the old 70’s/80’s SLR cameras from Pentax, Praktika, and of course Fujica. She often partakes in unusual projects - including one intense year where she used a different camera every single day.
