Fujifilm X-T20 with Fujifilm X-T30 Overview


Let's compare X-T30 with X-T20. Both cameras produced FujiFilm. These models are included in the Entry-Level Mirrorless cameras. Fujifilm X-T30 was released in 2019, and Fujifilm X-T20 in 2017. X-T30 is newer, which is a plus. X-T20 2 years older. However 2 years, the difference is not so bad.
The sensor resolution of X-T30 is greater than that of X-T20. However, the difference of 2 MP is not very significant. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
At the second camera (X-T20), the minimum ISO value is lower, which gives more opportunities for shooting in daylight. A larger maximum ISO allows you to take good pictures in the dark. Both cameras feature a 3-inch tilting screen.
Both cameras have a electronic viewfinder. All viewfinders has 2360k dot resolution. Burst mode, also called continuous shooting mode, sports mode or continuous high speed mode, is a shooting mode in still cameras. Fujifilm X-T30 has 14.0 fps continuous shooting. Fujifilm X-T30 has 14.0 fps continuous shooting.
