Fujifilm X-T30 II

The Fujifilm X-T30 II delivers the full imaging capability of Fujifilm's X-Trans IV sensor — the same 26.1MP unit found in the X-T4 and X-Pro3 — in the most affordable X-series body. It includes all 18 film simulations, Fujifilm's subject tracking AF, and 4K/30p video in a compact body weighing just 383g. For photographers who want genuine Fujifilm image quality and the X-mount lens ecosystem at the lowest possible price, the X-T30 II makes that accessible. It is the camera that makes you want to leave the house with it — the rare body that fits in a coat pocket alongside an XF 27mm f/2.8. The fixed tilting panel rather than a vari-angle screen is the one notable omission, but adequate for most use cases.

GearFrame's Take

Flagship sensor at a mid-range price — the rare camera that makes you want to go out and shoot.

Great For
👤
Portrait Excellent skin tones and subject separation. Film simulations add real character.
🏙️
Street Compact and discreet. Physical dials let you set exposure without looking at a screen.
🏔️
Landscape Strong dynamic range and rich colours. A tripod helps for long exposures without IBIS.
🎬
Vlogging & Video 4K footage is solid but the screen doesn't fully flip out and there's no IBIS.
Sports & Action 20fps burst is capable but subject tracking lags behind Sony and Canon's latest.
⚠️ Not Ideal For
🌌
Astrophotography No IBIS limits handheld night work. Works well on a tripod though.
