Three old age ago , two Fujifilm digital covenant , theX100andX10 , helped trigger off a new trend in cameras by melding classic , long - put out pattern with novel engineering science . Amongst the origination on the fancy X100 : A combination LCD and optical viewfinder , which kick in you both a taste of the old ice - and - film range finder reality , and the conveniences of digital . With the upgraded x20 , in 2013 , the smaller one snuck a efflorescence of digital in your eye yap with a thin digital overlay . So it ’s about meter we ’re go out the full electronic shebang .
In recent years , electronic viewfinders have gotten so just that their optical predecessor areunnecessaryin all but very specialized cases , and Fujifilm camera have largely been evolve off from ocular at the top of the blood line . But the inevitable transition has never been more evident than with the X30 , the late loop of the smaller , more low-cost of the two archetype . Today that handsome camera graduates to a 2.6 million - Elvis OLED EVF , matching the resolution constitute on top cameras like theSony A7 , which cost thousands of dollars more .
to boot , the X30 ’s 920,000 - battery-acid 3 - in tilting LCD is larger and play twice the resolution of the X20 ’s fixed screen . That ’s sharp enough that even snobby shooters might use the viewfinder less and less anyway .
Fujifilm has kept the central gut fromthe 2013 X20 unaltered . It has a 12 - megapixel 2/3 - inch Adam - TRANS CMOS 2 sensor , with some of the debauched autofocus in the human race , plus the same 28 - 112 mm ( 35 mm equivalent , 4x exaggeration ) f/2.0 - 2.8 lens . It will remain a ready to hand , fun television camera for street photography .

Maybe the bigger narration here is that after nearly two geezerhood ( OK , one - year , nine month ) , Fujifilm has n’t really pluck its key imaging tech in the X - series — not at the bottom of the line anyway . And perhaps most importantly , after this announcement , the most exciting thick cameras out there remainSony ’s RX100 logical argument , with their 1 - inch backside - illuminated sensors that yield splendid results . It ’s not retro — it ’s just awesome .
