Product Overview

Fujifilm X-T30 is a high-end mirrorless camera in the Fujifilm X-mount system. Introduced by Fujifilm in 2019, it comes with an APS-C sensor with 26 MP (6240 x 4160) resolution and a 2.36 million-dot EVF.
The camera has a usable battery life, though a second battery may be a good thing to keep in your camera bag. One should note that the Fujifilm X-T30 has a 160 base ISO, which is not conducive to getting the cleanest images. Professionals and fanboys will be pleased by the extraordinary 30.0 fps burst rate that this camera can deliver.

Reviewers from digitaltrends have found:
The X-T30 has just four points of physical connectivity: A hot shoe, a USB-C port, a 2.5mm microphone jack, and a Micro HDMI port. Wireless connectivity is a combination of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. This is an astonishingly capable camera for under $1,000 that only gets better when you pair it with a nice lens.
Pros
  • Excellent image quality
  • Excellent battery life
  • Excellent video quality
Cons
  • No external recorder
  • No headphone jack

Reviewers from pcmag have found:
Fujifilm has put almost everything from the pricier X-T3 into a smaller, more affordable body. Images show strong detail with little noise through ISO 3200. Lightroom now supports all of the same film modes that you can get in-camera. The camera does have Eterna, which was introduced with the X-H1.
Pros
  • Excellent image quality
  • Fast autofocus
  • Full-frame APS-C
  • 4K video
  • In-body stabilization
Cons
  • Fingerprint sensor
  • No telephoto zoom

Reviewers from rtings have found:
The Fujifilm X-T30 is good for travel photography. Its impressive autofocus system can help keep moving objects in focus. Its low minimum shutter speed also helps you take long exposure photographs. It's very portable, but people with larger hands may find it difficult to get a comfortable grip. It has decent FHD video quality, and produces an even sharper image when recording in 4k.
Pros
  • Impressive autofocus system
  • Great image quality
  • Impressive photo stabilization performance
  • Compact, portable design
  • Incredibly bright and sharp image
  • Excellent image quality, especially when shooting in 4k and FHD
  • IP68 rating
Cons
  • No high-speed frame rate recording options
  • Can't be mounted on a helmet
  • Loud falloff can make corners look darker than the middle of your shot
  • Doesn't have a lot of visible noise

Reviewer score 78% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from t3 have found:
Fuji X-T30 is an entry point into Fuji's X system. Despite its small size, the camera doesn't feel compromised in any way. As well as the aforementioned 26-megapixel stills, it offers the now expected 4K resolution footage at a standard 30 frames per second capture rate. This is a camera that the less experienced photographer will be able to grow into.
Pros
  • Compact and lightweight
  • Excellent image quality
  • Good battery life
Cons
  • Not the best for selfies
  • Touchpad is fiddly to use

techradar[5]

Reviewers from techradar have found:
Fujifilm X-T30 is capable of recording 4K video in addition to 1080p footage. Sports and action photographers are particularly well catered for by the camera. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth make it possible to hook the camera up to your phone or tablet, or a printer.
Pros
  • Improved autofocus
  • Better battery life than X-T20
Cons
  • No UHSII card slot

tomsguide[6]

Reviewer score 87% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from tomsguide have found:
The Fujifilm X-T30 is a solid choice for serious enthusiasts and semi-pro photographers. Autofocus is quick and Fuji's hybrid contrast and phase detection system offers 425 AF points. Fuji's free Camera Remote app allows you to transfer images from the camera to a mobile device.
Pros
  • Excellent image quality
  • Fully articulating LCD
  • Easy to set up and use
Cons
  • Autofocus can be hit or miss
  • No manual controls

trustedreviews[7]

Reviewer score 85% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from trustedreviews have found:
The X-T30 is the best camera you can buy at this travel-friendly size and sub-£1000 price point. It has the autofocus, burst shooting and image quality to snag you some great shots. Unlike cameras such as the Panasonic GH5S, this isn’t a model you’ll buy primarily for video – but it’s a fantastic tool for shooting short clips.
Pros
  • Excellent image quality
  • Excellent autofocus
  • Excellent video performance
Cons
  • No built-in image stabilisation
