The FUJIFILM X-T30 II is a compact yet powerful mirrorless camera that combines advanced imaging capabilities with a user-friendly design. This model offers high-resolution stills and 4K video recording, enhanced by a revised sensor and processor for improved performance. Its autofocus system provides fast and precise focusing, while the ergonomic design features intuitive controls and modern connectivity options.
High-Resolution Imaging:
- 26.1MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 4 Sensor: This back-illuminated sensor enhances image quality with smooth tonal rendering and improved low-light performance. It uses a unique pixel array to reduce moiré and aliasing, delivering sharp and detailed images without an optical low-pass filter.
- X-Processor 4: The camera's advanced processor, featuring four-core processing, ensures quick image processing and supports continuous shooting at 8 fps with the mechanical shutter or 30 fps with the electronic shutter and a 1.25x crop. It also enables internal DCI/UHD 4K30 video recording.
Advanced Video Features:
- 4K Video Recording: Capture internal UHD 4K30 video at up to 200 Mb/s, with options for DCI 4K30 and Full HD 1080p120 recording. The X-T30 II also supports F-Log gamma for flat color profiles, ideal for advanced color grading.
- External Recording: The camera allows simultaneous internal and external recording, with support for MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 and HEVC/H.265 compressions. Enhanced video performance is supported by the X-Processor 4’s rapid read speeds.
Enhanced Autofocus System:
- 425-Point Phase Detection: The X-T30 II features a comprehensive 425-point phase detection system with coverage across the frame. This system offers fast and accurate focus performance, including improved low-light sensitivity down to -7 EV. New Face Selection options enhance face and eye detection.
User-Friendly Design:
- Electronic Viewfinder: The 2.36m-dot OLED viewfinder provides clear, bright, and detailed eye-level viewing with a 0.62x magnification and a fast refresh rate. The Sports Finder Mode highlights a cropped area of 16.6MP for expanded viewing beyond the frame.
- Tilting Touchscreen LCD: The 3.0" 1.62m-dot LCD touchscreen offers flexible live view shooting, playback, and menu navigation with a two-way tilting design for working from various angles.
Additional Features:
- Body Controls: Prominent dials and levers on the top plate include a dedicated shutter speed dial, mode dial, and exposure compensation dial, allowing for intuitive adjustments. Command dials with push functions and a Focus Lever provide additional control and ease of use.
- Connectivity: Built-in Bluetooth 4.2 and Wi-Fi enable easy image sharing and remote control via the FUJIFILM Camera Remote App. A micro-HDMI port, USB 3.2 Gen 2 port, and 3.5mm microphone port are included for versatile connectivity options.
Film Simulation and Creative Modes:
- Film Simulation Modes: The X-T30 II includes 18 Film Simulation modes that mimic FUJIFILM’s classic films, such as Eterna, Acros, and Classic Chrome. A customizable Grain Effect mode replicates the texture of traditional film prints.
Battery Life and Cleaning:
- Battery and Maintenance: Powered by the NP-W126S battery, the X-T30 II offers extended shooting sessions. The camera also features an ultra-sonic vibration sensor cleaning system to maintain optimal image quality.
Interval Shooting and Self-Timer:
- Interval Shooting: Set up custom intervals and exposures for creative time-lapse photography. The self-timer offers 2-second or 10-second delay options for convenience.
The FUJIFILM X-T30 II is designed for those seeking a blend of performance and portability, providing an array of advanced features in a stylish, compact package.
