Fujifilm X-T30 18-135 Mirrorless Digital Camera

Back-illuminated 26.1 megapixel image sensor

The FUJIFILM X-T30 features the X Series' Fourth Generation X Trans CMOS 4 Sensor. Boasting a resolution of 26.1MP, the sensor uses the unique X-Trans color filter array to reduce moire and false colors, all without the need for an optical low pass filter. Additionally, its back-illuminated structure enhances image quality, while reducing noise levels and extending the native ISO to ISO160.

X-Processor 4

The new X-Processor 4 has a quad-core design, which make use of the X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor's full potential. In fact, this combination is the driving force behind the camera's Enhanced Film Simulation Modes, it's advanced auto-focus tracking capability, and high-quality 4K/30P video capabilities.

Control Mode

You can select "Program," "Shutter Speed Priority," "Aperture Priority" and "Manual" by using a combination of the Shutter Speed Dial and the Aperture Ring on the lens. The Exposure Compensation Dial also allows you to adjust exposure by up to ±5 stops*.

* When using the dial at "C" position

Auto Mode

When using the Advanced SR Auto mode, the camera automatically selects the optimum shooting settings from 58 preset scenes.

When the Advanced SR Auto mode is selected, the camera examines the scene and automatically selects optimum autofocus and exposure settings. This mode is useful for situations where it is difficult to determine the right exposure settings. You only need to press the shutter to obtain high-quality images and capturing perfect photo opportunities.

Faster and more accurate AF performance

The number of AF phase detection pixels in the sensor have been increased to 2.16 million and now cover the entire frame (approx. 100%). This enables fast and accurate auto-focusing. Additionally, The low-light threshold for phase detection AF has been also expanded from +0.5EV in previous-generation camera systems to -3.0EV.

Mechanical Shutter and Electronic Shutter

The FUJIFILM X-T30 can shoot continuously at up to 8.0fps in full resolution when using the mechanical shutter.

In Sports Finder Mode, the camera will capture 16.6 Mega-Pixel images with a 1.25x crop factor and use its electronic shutter. This makes it possible for the camera to have AF/ AE-tracking, blackout-free continuous shooting of up to 30fps, and silent mode.

Compared to previous models, Face and Eye Detection have had their accuracy and performance doubled. This is especially true when tracking subjects from the side or when they are coming towards the camera. For portrait photographers using shallow depths of field, Eye-detection AF can be configured to priority focus on individual eyes, or on the eye closest to the camera. Eye-detection AF is also supported in AF-C mode, which will assist in providing accurate focus for moving subjects.

"Face Select" function ensures that the right subject is captured

When there are multiple faces within the frame, you can select a specific person on the touchscreen panel or with the Focus Lever so that autofocus and exposure settings are optimized for the subject. "Face Select" is a perfect tool when shooting commemorative photos or shooting a specific person in a large crowd in sports or other events.

4K/30P Video Recording and High Resolution Digital Audio

Thanks to its advanced sensor and processor combination, the FUJIFILM X-T30 is capable of recording incredible 4K (3840x2160) video by down-sampling its 6K (6240x3510) capture.

The camera also supports 4K DCI (17:9), an industry standard that gives videos an even more cinematic look.

Finally, F-Log recording with 4:2:2 10-bit output can be captured through the HDMI port, giving professional filmmakers a wonderfully capable tool to use in achieving their creative visions.

The Face- and Eye-detection AF during Video Recording

Face and Eye-Detection AF can be used when recording video by using the touchscreen panel or the Focus Lever.

4K video with Film Simulation modes

Film Simulations can also be used when capturing 4K video to creatively interpret any scene. For example, ETERNA is particularly suitable for video thanks to its subdued colors and rich shadows. ACROS delivers monochromatic video with fine textures and rich grains. CLASSIC CHROME creates a unique atmosphere, reminiscent of vintage reversal films, while scenes requiring high levels of saturation can benefit from using Velvia. Whichever simulation is chosen, it can be assured that FUJIFILM's color processing engine will be there to deliver incredible results.

FUJIFILM's unique Film Simulation modes

The FUJIFILM X-T3 offers 16 Film Simulation modes so that you can match your true photographic intention in a similar way to how photographers used to choose purpose-specific photographic films. This unique philosophy reflects Fujifilm’s heritage and color science know-how, nurtured by over 80 years of film manufacturing.

Choose from: Provia, Velvia, Astia, Classic Chrome,Acros (+Ye/R/G Filter), Pro Neg Hi, Pro Neg Std & Eterna.

High performance electronic viewfinder

The FUJIFILM X-T30 features a 2.36-million-dot high resolution EVF with a magnification ratio of 0.62x.

Offering a magnification ratio equivalent to DSLRs, the display has a lag time of just 0.005 seconds and has a refresh rate of 100fps, which allows for quick adjustments when subjects move unpredictably.

Unlike a DSLRs with optical viewfinders, the EVF helps content creators see exactly what the sensor will capture. This means film simulations and exposure effects can be shown in real-time, which ultimately assists in helping to achieve creative visions more easily.

Tilting touchscreen LCD monitor

The FUJIFILM X-T30 features a 3.0-inch tilting touchscreen LCD monitor that has a 3:2 aspect ratio and approx. 1.04 million dots. The tilting design enables easy shooting from high and low angles. All shooting information, normally displayed on the monitor, can be turned off if you want to concentrate on taking the picture.

Capacitive Touchscreen Panel

Equipped with a capacitive touchscreen panel, the FUJIFILM X-T30 allows touch-based controls during shooting, such as "Touch AF," "Touch Focus Area Selection," "Touch Shot" and "Touch Function". This capability means you can move your focus area faster and more intuitively than ever before or simply use a swipe motion to scroll through images when reviewing.

Enhanced grip and handling

The FUJIFILM X-T30 uses an eight-direction lever instead of the traditional 4-way selector buttons. This makes the camera's compact body more stable during use and makes it easier to handle. The grip thickness has also been increased to provide more hand-held comfort.
