X-T30 II Silver with XC15-45mm Lens kit

This camera produces stunning photos. It's comfortable to use and easy to set up. I really can't fault it; one of the best value Fujifilm models so far.

I own a number of Fuji Cameras but wanted something smaller. The Fuji Film XT30 II is simply a great camera, it shares a lot of tech including the censor from the XT-4 so picture quality is exceptionally high and it works very well in low light. It's auto focus is also carried across from Fuji's top of the range models. Also it's video capabilities are second to none. The XT30 II will not disappoint, it's image quality is well above it's price point. I use the XT-4 as well but I have recently found myself using the XT30 ii for paid work as it is simply a joy to shoot. Great for beginners and professionals alike.

Picked up the Fuji X-T30 II mainly for travel, and it’s been a solid choice. Compact, light, and easy to use camera. The film simulations are the highlight (recipes found on FujiXWeekly App). If you’re into film-style photography, this camera delivers great results straight out of the box. The colours are rich without feeling overdone, and you don’t need to edit your photos in post. It handles different lighting conditions well, and the controls are intuitive even if you’re not a pro. Overall, if you want a reliable travel camera with great colour science and a film aesthetic, this one does the job.

It's a nice little camera, beautiful build quality, retro styling and the colour science is really good. The images I'm getting out of the camera are crisp and detailed as you would expect. The Raw files are easy to colour grade and the j-pegs look amazing out of the camera with very little need for colour adjustments.

Lightweight really nice love the filters and built in flash light

I really do love this camera i’m only starting off so a lot to learn but so far great , love the ease of getting pictures instantly, would recommend 🙌🏻

Finally managed to get one. Great camera

I bought the X-T30 II mainly because it doesn’t have a dedicated film simulation dial – and that’s a big plus in my book. I really dislike that feature on newer Fujis, so this was a refreshing option. I also considered the X-T20 second-hand, but for what people are charging, it just didn’t feel like good value. To be fair, I don’t think the X-T30 II is a bargain either, but the idea of having a brand-new camera (especially one I plan to keep long-term) was worth the extra spend for me. What I like: • It’s small, light, and easy to use, which makes it great for everyday shooting. • It shares the same sensor as my X-T4, which I absolutely love. In my opinion, the X-T4 is the pinnacle of Fujifilm’s mirrorless lineup – things really went downhill after that. • Once I fiddled with the settings a bit, I got the X-T30 II behaving just like my X-T4, which is exactly what I wanted. What I didn’t like so much: • The grip is tiny. Even though I’ve got small hands (I wear size small gloves), it still feels cramped and awkward to hold. I’ll probably end up buying an external grip for it just to make it more comfortable. • The XC15-45mm lens is… rough. I honestly regret getting it. I hate how it works – the motorised zoom feels fiddly, it slows things down, and it just doesn’t feel nice to use. The only redeeming thing is that it’s compact and has a decent range. But overall, it was a waste of money for me. Final thoughts: I mostly bought this camera out of fear – fear that in the future, I’d be stuck choosing between something I’d hate (with a film dial) or paying a ridiculous amount for a second-hand body in questionable condition. The X-T30 II isn’t perfect, but it’s modern, clean, and I know what I’m getting. With a better lens and a grip, I think it’ll be a great little backup to my X-T4.
