Fujifilm`s X-T30 brings the same 26MP sensor, processor and much of the feature set of the high-end X-T3 at a more reasonable price. If that sounds familiar, it`s because the relationship between the X-T20 and X-T2 was the same.
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. The X-T30 also comes at a significantly lower price than the X-T3, with the body priced at $899, versus $1499 for the X-T3. We`ll discuss what features were cut in order to make the X-T30 the less expensive of the two options a bit later in the review.

That`s a lot of camera for under $900, body-only. If you`d like to add a lens, you can get the camera and the 15-45mm F3.5-5.6 OIS Power Zoom lens for $999, or with the excellent 18-55 F2.8-4 lens for $1299. The camera is available in silver, black and the graphite silver version shown in this review.
What`s new and how it compares
The X-T30 borrows the sensor and processor from the more expensive X-T3, and that`s great news.
