Fujifilm's X-t30 Iii Adds A Film Simulation Dial And 6k Video

When Fujifilm launched nan X-T50 past year, nary 1 was judge what would hap pinch its aging X-T30 lineup. The institution conscionable answered that mobility pinch nan motorboat of the X-T30 III, boosting nan velocity and improving autofocus of nan past model, while adding a movie simulation dial seen connected different caller models. It's very ray for recreation aliases thoroughfare photography, but has immoderate powerful features for illustration 6.2K video and subject-detect autofocus, each astatine a reasonable price.

The original X-T30 first arrived successful 2019 and was replaced successful 2022 by nan X-T30 II that was much of a mild update than an all-new camera. However, nan X-T30 III has a number of cardinal updates that bring it successful statement pinch different caller models like nan X-M5 and X-T50. It does person nan aforesaid 26.1MP X-Trans sensor arsenic earlier (with a 1.5x harvest compared to a full-frame camera), but now uses Fujifilm's latest image processor that doubles image processing velocity and importantly improves video capabilities.

The X-T30 III is meant to beryllium taken connected adventures, truthful it's still very ray astatine conscionable 378 grams aliases 13.33 ounces, a touch little than nan erstwhile model. Control-wise, nan biggest summation is simply a movie simulation dial conscionable for illustration nan 1 connected nan X-M5 and X-T50, replacing nan mode dial from nan X-T30 II. It's designed to make it easy to move betwixt movie simulations for illustration Reala Ace and Nostalgic Neg, while offering 3 customizable positions to fto users prevention "recipes" of their ain making.

Otherwise, nan X-T30 III has a generous complement of dials and buttons thing that allows for precise power but whitethorn intimidate newbies. The rear show tilts up but doesn't flip out, and nan 2.36-million-dot physics viewfinder is connected nan debased extremity for resolution. The main characteristic missing connected nan X-T30 III is in-body stabilization, truthful you'll request either a stabilized (OIS) lens aliases physics stabilization for video.

Burst shooting speeds are nan aforesaid arsenic earlier astatine 8 fps pinch nan mechanical shutter and 20 fps successful physics mode. However, much of your shots are apt to beryllium crisp acknowledgment to nan updated, faster autofocus. Along pinch nan other speed, Fujifilm introduced caller AI taxable discovery modes including Auto-Tracking, Animals, Birds and Vehicles.

Video besides gets a large upgrade. The X-T30 III tin now changeable 6.2K 30 fps video utilizing nan full sensor (up from 4K 30p before), aliases 4K astatine 60 fps pinch a mild 1.18x crop. All of those resolutions are disposable pinch 10-bit modes to boost move range. However, nan X-T30 III lacks in-body stabilization, has a weird 2.5mm microphone input and a show that only tilts and doesn't flip out. That makes it good arsenic a hybrid camera, but if you mostly sprout video, a exemplary for illustration nan X-S20 whitethorn beryllium a amended choice.

Other cardinal features see a microHDMI larboard for RAW video output, a azygous SD representation paper (that's of nan low-speed UHS-I assortment unfortunately), and improved artillery life pinch up to 425 shots to a charge. Fujifilm besides introduced a caller lens, nan Fujinon XC13-33mmF3.5-6.3 OIS that offers an absorbing ultrawide full-frame balanced zoom scope of astir 20-50mm.

The X-T30 III is now connected pre-order for $999 successful aggregate colors (black, charcoal metallic and silver) pinch shipping group to commencement successful November 2025. The Fujinon XC13-33mmF3.5-6.3 OIS will besides vessel astir nan aforesaid clip for $399.
