I've just published a full review of the X-T30 after using it for over a year! 😊 You can find it here: ruclips.net/video/JqYE5FDscjs/видео.html
It's crazy that you can get so much power packed into such a small camera these days. I'm looking forward to getting one of these as my first upgrade from a point and shoot. The portability is really appealing and should make for more photo opportunities than something bigger.
Sounds awesome! Hope you enjoy the camera, the portability really is great 😊
I switched from Canon eos 250D to Fujifilm XT-30ii. I was SO nervous about switching brand, but my friend told me to try Fujifilm + gave me some very good arguments on why I shouldn’t stay with canon -and god I’m in love with my little XT-30ii 🤍
Awesome!
how much did you pick yours up for?
What were the arguments to not go further with canon?
I also got the XT30ii and love. I still kept my canon 90d for wildlife and when the weather is crap, the 90d is weather sealed. Enjoy the Fujifilm, system👍
@@stevenharper6888 Oh, I still have my 250D - it was my first camera, and I can't let go of it fully lmao. I don't really use it after I bought the XT30ii but it got me into photography so I can't make myself throw it out or sell it ☺
I love this camera. I've had the xt30 since it's launch in 2019. It's been my main camera since then. I even bought the "outdated" xe2s and it takes great photos. Besides the film sims the biggest thing fuji has going for them is their incredible glass. Also, they're just fun to shoot.
I agree, they are so fun to shoot!
Your amazing and I love this video. I have been shooting on Sony and Nikon, however I have became increasingly interested in the Fujifilm cameras lately ❤
Thank you for the kind words! :)
I’ve been with canon since forever but Fujifilm makes me feel a certain way.
Very helpful and enjoyable review! Yes, please do make a full review after some time! I just ordered mine used from Amazon.
I switched from A7ii to XT1 and was blown away by the fuji jpegs
I had the pleasure of using a X-T30 while in college for a couple projects and loved it! Such an amazing camera I wish I knew more about cameras back then so I could have tried out the camera to the fullest. One day I hope I can get one for myself
great explanation, easy to understand, love it!!
Thanks! I appreciate it :)
I shoot with a Sony a6400 but i want to pick up a Fuji XT30 for the exact reasons you mentioned, can't wait to get my hands on one.
Have fun with it!
Great Video! You convinced me to test out the fuji eco system as well🤩
Thanks for helping me shoot b-roll 🥰
I love my XT30 :) great video! unrelated but - what kind of dog do you have? it's adorable lol
Thank you! A golden doodle :)
Great Video!!😊🎉
Thank you!
Great video, makes me want one, the refurbished site usually has good deals
Yeah I've just added some links to MPB in the description, that's where I got mine :)
Great and informative video. I'm currently using an Sony A7II mostly and I'm thinking to get a XT30. Especially when I'm traveling the weight and compact size would be an advantage. Can you confirm these aspects?
Yes! The x-t30 is the ideal form factor for traveling. I think I will mostly use my Sony when traveling, to get the most quality when I am somewhere special, but the x-t30 should also be able to handle pretty much anything decently well.
So I actually made the switch from the Sony a7ii to the x-t30 about 7 months ago and would never look back. It’s the greatest change I’ve ever made. I might be a little biased considering I’m a film lover as well but I highly recommend this camera
@@liamaxton6611 I’m also debating on the xt30 and a larger camara. How would the xt30 perform with zoom lenses? Like 55-200, would it be to inbalanced?
@@avish692 so the body of the X-t30 is rather small. But if you buy the grip to go on it, it adds a nice bit of weight and size and should help to balance larger lenses.
@@liamaxton6611 Yes, I've found an added grip to be essential on mine.
Love this videos pls make more. ❤️
Thank you so much 😊 I am hard at work making new videos at the moment
I just bought one ❤
My dream camera is Sony a7iv but that’s not happening anytime soon and in my country it’s super expensive. Never owned a camera so for a first choice camera that can also shoot video if I’d want to or maybe stream as well? Who knows but should I go with Sony a6400 camera with sigma contemporary lens or with Fuji x t30ii with just one prime lens? Don’t really know what Fuji can offer tho film simulations sound really cool.
Love Your Videos ❗️
Thank you!
Looking to do the same. My amazing a74. Just doesn’t do for me. I mean. I love the look that it can give me. But need something quicker
I was thinking about getting a Fujifilm I wanted one for photography but I thought it would be cool to get a camera that can take both video and cameras and the X-T30 is brought up the most
Yes the X-T30 has some really good video features, thank you for watching!
I'm planning to buy a camera but I don't know whether to choose sony a6300 or fuji xt 30
My need is to take good portraits because I do service
can you give me advice?
I would go with the X-T30, it's 3 years newer and for portraits the Fuji color science should be a big plus.
Sonys Menu system is imo really horrible. Fujis color science is absolutely stunning.
Great video.✌✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Which lens did u use with xt30?
I ve watched many videos on fuji xt 30 and this is one was really clear and informative🙏
could you help us with what lense to chose when buying a xt30?
it's all about how much you can afford. the Fuji lenses are all good. you may find cheaper lens with Rokinon though with manual focus.
It depends what you want to shoot but the 18-55 ‘kit’ lens is really excellent - compact with great quality. I bought mine second hand for a good price and is a great all-rounder. Next I recommend the one of small fuji f2 primes. Again, second hand, these are great value and retain the overall small form factor on the xt30 or similar body. For all round family shooting I’d go for the 23mm f2 (35mm equivalent on full frame) but the 35mm (52mm equivalent) is also really nice if you prefer that focal length,
@@patrickcoggins6279 i bought xc35mm nice build. Took me a while to find out that for shutter priority the apperture must be switched to the max to become automatic, since there is no A switch on it.
@@phitur The XC 35mm is great value - hope you enjoy it.
The XC 35mm F2 is quite affordable and really good! I also got the XC 16-55 used for 100€ and it's also a great option for the price
did you got the mkII? .. my only complaint for not getting this camera is that it is not yet supported by the fuji sdk , and there is absolutely no way or channel to get a response from them about it.
I totally enjoyed it.
Your evf and shutter button looks slightly different from mine. Are those extra accessories you got to make them look that way?
Yes those are accessories the previous owner of the camera bought and sold together with the camera.
@@futc.photography iS DAT Extended Soft Silicone Eyepiece better than original small one ?
Nice video 😍
Thank you!
Great review! I'm looking for a camera mainly for video, and in worse lighting for views and streets, often after dark :) Will the XT-30 with the 18-55 2.8 lens be a good choice or is it better to pay extra and buy the X-3? Will the 18-55 2.8 lens be sufficient for lower light?
They have the same sensors, so focus on getting faster glass if you need better lowlight performance. If you're focus is video and the budget will allow it, the X-T3 is a better camera (For non sensor related reasons)
The Fuji XT-30/XT-3 with the 18-55 is fine in low light, and a very close second to Sonys low light and autfocus!
I’m looking at the xt30 or the xt30ii and I’ve found that you can edit the film sim name on the xt30ii but can you edit the name of it on the xt30? Mainly trying to keep a reminder of what film sim is using with the correct name.
Yes you can set a custom name for your film sim presets. There are 7 slots that you can fill with custom settings and those can also have custom names
i read your article about this video, how to create DIY Pro Mist Filter ? I really want to get look but i cant afford now
Just buy a cheap UV filter in the correct size (I got one for around 7 euro) and then take some hairspray and spray one to two short sprays onto the UV filter at a distance of around 40cm, depending on how strong you want the look to be. You can just clean off the filter with water if you want to try again.
@@futc.photography thank you for answer, you deserve more subs and views
@@nandajce Thank you! I appreciate it ^^ share my videos with some friends that would also enjoy them :) that would help my channel grow
I wish the xt30ii had ibis 🤷🏼♂️
Ibis would be cool, but I don’t think it’s possible in that small of a case 🤔
@@futc.photography right, meybe in the future.
@@Elazarko If you want IBIS with a small body the only choice is the XS10. It is ~$300 more than the XT30. Also has a better grip. Same NP126 battery so buy a couple extra.

Hi, which lens did u use?
can we use it for RUclips and travel photography
which lens did you use to take these photos on the video?
Fuji XC 35mm F2, I have a video on it as well.
@@futc.photography nice
I have this camera.
How's the battery life of it in case of photography ?
It's pretty decent I would say, it's fine if you're shooting for a couple of hours but it won't last a full intense day of shooting. The batteries aren't very big because the Fuji bodies are all very compact. The good thing is you can charge it in-between with usb-c if you have access to a wall plug. But I would recommend getting two more 3rd party batteries (those can be bought for pretty cheap) and then you won't have to worry about battery at all.
where u get that eye piece for xt30 !!!
It actually came with the camera, the previous owner had bought it and sold it together with the eye piece and the extended shutter button. I've seen it on amazon for about 10 euro I believe :) It's definitely practical in bright situations.
That’s some humongous eye cap you have on your xt30
I just got my x-t20 lol. I didn't want to spend that much on my first camera
Great choice! There definitely is no need to spend that much, especially on your first camera and I love testing budget cameras on this channel :)
Would you recommend this or the x-e4? I am torn between these two as my first fuji!
That's a tough one, the X-T30 is a decent chunk cheaper than the X-E4 and putting that money towards a lens might be a good idea. But the X-E4 also has some benefits, so if your budget allows it then it might be worth it for you.
@@futc.photography what benefits would you say XE4 has over the T30? I thought the opposite due to less buttons and dials on the E4. And the price difference here in Canada is almost the same between the two sadly
@@bowenzhang5137 im also very curious about the benefits!
No real benefits to have the x-e4 over the x-t30 other than the visual camera style. Basically with the x-t30 you'll get more buttons and the "real" tactile feel of fuji cameras. The only benefit with the x-e4 is that some people prefer the evf on the left side of the camera (nose can touch the screen in the x-t30 when using the evf since it's in the middle). Other than that the x-t30 have better ergonomics and feels better in hand. The only reason the xe4 became popular is the fact that people could'nt get their hands on the x100v because of the hype so they wanted a similar cool camera. Now the same happens with xe4. You can't find it anywhere and The prices go up for the same reason. Hype. Instead of x-t30 I would go for the xs-10 because of the ibis.
Which lens you have used sir??
Mostly I use the XC 35mm F2 but I also have the XC 16-55mm
@@futc.photography oh great
How do you get the extra presets in?
FujiXweekly post fuji film simulation recipes
I even bought a xt20 in 2023
Duisburg? 😅
omg you're so cute
Dumme frage, aber sprichst du deutsch?
Ja 😅
@@futc.photography hast du rein zufällig Instagram? Würde gerne mit dir über was reden :)
@@byeggs ja hab ich, @futc.photography ist mein instagram
The expression is totally hilarious...why do we buy cameras that are three or four years old since they came out on the market..it's totally annoying to come up with such a title...I mean, if you have a camera that's over 4 years old it is no longer good or what?
You need to learn photography first then talk about cameras
do you have Instagram? I'm looking forward to see your work
Yes, it's @futc.photography :)
Excelente video saludos desde colombia tienes una Instagram?
Thank you! Yes it's @futc.photography
