GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Street, Travel, Everyday — X-T30 (2019): The X-T3's sensor in a pocketable body. One of Fujifilm's best value cameras.
Retro Compact Collectors — Cyber-shot DSC-T700 (2008): A touchscreen Sony from 2008 — the DSC-T700 was ahead of its time with a 3.5" touch display, but belongs in a collection rather than a kit bag today.
