Looking for better picture quality and more extensive manual controls than you get with the typical point-and-shoot? Fujifilm's compact X30 marries a cool retro design with advanced digital camera features that photo enthusiasts will appreciate. Building on the success of Fujifilm's popular X20 camera, the X30 offers an upgraded OLED viewfinder, expanded video options, and a large 3" viewscreen. Best of all, there's built-in Wi-Fi, so you can control your camera from a distance, and share photos and videos instantly.

Classic performance with modern features

The X30's 4X optical zoom lens is bright and fast across the zoom range, for capturing detailed low-light shots or freezing fast action. The camera's customizable control ring and metal exposure dials give you the creative freedom and tactile feel associated with classic cameras. Yet the X30 also incorporates plenty of modern-day features like artistic filters, including film simulation mode, which uses advanced processing to re-create the classic look of Fujifilm's color films.

Get creative with HD video

The X30 shoots full HD video (1920 x 1080), but that's not all. The camera offers variable frame rates (24, 25, 30, 50 and 60 frames per second), along with high-speed and slow-motion playback options. Manual shutter speed and ISO control give you additional creative control. It's ready to help you shoot a simple home movie, or something a little more inventive.

    Features

    Retro Design: The Fujifilm X30 digital camera is designed to look like a classic 35mm film camera with many of the features of a high-quality DSLR. It has a synthetic leather-wrapped body with a die-cast magnesium top and base, and precision milled metal rings and dials. The manual 4x optical zoom lens is protected by an aluminum lens cap.

    Fujinon Zoom Lens: The X30 is equipped with a bright F2.0 (W) - F2.8 (T) Fujinon 4x zoom lens with a focal length of 7.1mm to 28.4mm (35mm equivalent: 28mm-112mm). The zoom mechanism operates manually by turning the lens ring. The camera's power switch is incorporated into the zoom ring.

    Note: The camera does not allow for interchangeable lenses.

    Tilting LCD Monitor: The X30 has a 3" color LCD monitor featuring approximately 920,000 dots and approximately 100% horizontal and vertical coverage in the shooting mode. The LCD monitor can be tilted forward approximately 45° for framing high-angle shots and tilted backward approximately 90° for framing low-angle shots.

    Electronic Viewfinder: In addition to the LCD monitor, the camera has a 0.39" 2,360,000-dot OLED Electronic Viewfinder with approximately 100% frame coverage. The viewfinder has a super-fast display lag time of 0.005 seconds, making it almost indistinguishable from an optical viewfinder. A built-in diopter allows you to adjust the viewfinder to your eyesight, either with or without glasses. The camera will automatically switch between the viewfinder and the LCD as you raise the camera to your eye, or lower it away from your eye.

    Image Sensor/Processor: The X30 features a large 2/3" X-Trans CMOS II image sensor with 12-million effective pixels. The sensor works together with the EXR Processor II to give you high quality images, Full HD Movie recording, and high-speed continuous shooting.

    Recording Media: Still images and movies can be recorded onto optional SD, SDHC, or SDXC memory cards, including high-speed UHS-I cards. The X30 also has an internal memory of approximately 55 MB to allow you to store a few test images in case your memory card is full.

    Built-in Wi-Fi: The camera can access wireless networks and connect to computers, smartphones, or tablets using the following applications:

    • Fujifilm Camera Remote: Using the Fujifilm Camera Remote app, you can remotely take pictures and control the camera using your smartphone or tablet. You can also view pictures stored on the camera and download them when you want. Camera Remote is available from the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad with iOS 5.0 or later. It is also available from Google Play for Android devices running version 2.2 and up.
    • Fujifilm PhotoReceiver: With the Fujifilm PhotoReceiver app, you can upload pictures from your wireless-equipped camera to a smartphone or tablet. Available for select iOS and Android devices.
    • Fujifilm PC AutoSave: The Fujifilm PC AutoSave application lets you save photos and movies automatically from the camera to your computer via Wi-Fi. The PC AutoSave is supported by Windows 8, 7 (SP1), Vista (SP2), XP (SP3), and Mac OS X 10.6-10.8.

    Still Image Quality: The X30 records still images in JPEG format in 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, and 1:1 aspect ratios in three sizes (Small, Medium, and Large) and two compression ratios (Fine and Normal). In addition, RAW images can be recorded from the raw, uncompressed image data from the camera's image sensor. RAW format images must be processed on a computer using the supplied RAW File Converter application software. You can also shoot a RAW + JPEG image at the same time, with separate RAW and JPEG files recorded and stored. The available image sizes include:

    4:3 Image Sizes 3:2 Image Sizes 16:9 Image Sizes 1:1 Image Sizes
    L: 4000 x 3000
    M: 2816 x 2112
    S: 2048 x 1536
    L: 4000 x 2664
    M: 2816 x 1864
    S: 2048 x 1360
    L: 4000 x 2248
    M: 2816 x 1584

    L: 2992 x 2992
    M: 2112 x 2112
    S: 1536 x 1536

    Motion Panorama: The camera is capable of taking panoramic images by panning the camera through one of three angle settings. As you pan the camera, multiple frames are recorded and automatically stitched together in the camera to create the panoramic image. The Motion Panorama 360° can be saved for playback as a continuous loop. The Motion Panorama options are:

    • Motion Panorama 360°:
      • Vertical: 1624 x 11520
      • Horizontal: 11520 x 1080
    • Motion Panorama 180°:
      • Vertical: 1624 x 5760
      • Horizontal: 5760 x 1080
    • Motion Panorama 120°:
      • Vertical: 1624 x 3840
      • Horizontal: 3840 x 1080

    HD Movies: The X30 can record movies in Full HD (1920 x 1080/60 fps,), Standard HD (1280 x 720/60 fps), and Standard Definition (640 x 480/30 fps) in MOV (H.264 with LPCM stereo audio). A Class 10 SD memory card or higher is recommended when shooting HD or High Speed movies.

    High Speed Movies: High Speed movies can be shot at 640 x 480 @80 fps, 320 x 240 @150 fps, and 320 x 112 @ 250 fps. These movies, when played back at normal speed, show the subjects in slow motion. No audio is recorded; focus, exposure, and white balance are not adjusted automatically.

    Q Button: The Q, located on the back of the camera, displays the Quick Menu during shooting. The Quick Menu gives you quick access to custom settings, allowing you to change and save the new setting on the go.

    Shooting Modes: The X30 has a rotary mode dial on the top of the camera. You have the following choices in Shooting Modes:

    • P, S, A, M: The camera lets you set the shutter speed and aperture automatically or manually in these four shooting modes. The shutter speed and aperture settings combine for these shooting modes:

    • SP (Scene Position) 1&2: You can set the camera according to particular shooting conditions or a specific type of subject. Scene Positions include: Portrait, Portrait Enhancer, Landscape, Sport, Night, Night (Tripod), Fireworks, Sunset, Snow, Beach, Underwater, Party, Flower, and Text. You can set separate scenes in SP1 and SP2.

    • Motion Panorama 360: Lets you take photos that will automatically be joined end-to-end to form a panorama.

    ISO Sensitivity: The X30 gives you several options for setting the ISO Sensitivity:

    • Auto: The Auto settings will adjust the sensitivity settings according to the shooting conditions.
    • Auto (with maximum): The sensitivity is set automatically as above, except that the sensitivity will not be raised above a set maximum of 400, 800, 1600, or 3200.
    • Default Sensitivity: You can set the default sensitivity between 100 and 3200, and the camera automatically sets the sensitivity between the default and maximum values. Sensitivity is only raised above the default value when the shutter speed required would be slower than the value selected for the minimum shutter speed.
    • Minimum Shutter Speed: The minimum shutter speed can be set between 1/4 sec and 1/125 sec.
    • Manual: You can manually set the camera's sensitivity to ISO 100, 200, 250, 320, 400, 500, 640, 800, 1000, 1250, 1600, 2000, 2500, 3200, 4000, 5000, 6400, or 12800.

    White Balance: White balance is used to preserve natural colors under different types of lighting. You can select Auto, Fine, Shade, "Daylight" fluorescent lamps, "Warm White" fluorescent lamps, "Cool White" fluorescent lamps, Incandescent light, and Underwater (requires waterproof case). In addition, you can measure for a white balance value or display and select from a list of color temperatures.

    Film Simulation: The X30 can simulate the effects of different kinds of film, including sepia and black-and-white. You can select one of the following options: PROVIA/Standard, Velvia/Vivid, ASTIA/Soft, Classic Chrome, PRO Negative Standard, PRO Negative Hi, Monochrome, Monochrome + Ye Filter, Monochrome + R Filter, Monochrome + G Filter, and Sepia.

    Exposure Compensation: Using the dedicated Exposure Compensation dial on the top of the camera, you can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure a total of 13 steps from -3.0 to +3.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps (-2.0EV to +2.0EV for movie recording). Exposure compensation is available in all shooting modes except Manual.

    Continuous Shooting: The Continuous Shooting mode includes two burst modes and four bracket modes:

    • Top: You can shoot continuously while the shutter release button is pressed. There are 4 speeds, each with a maximum number of frames: Super High: 18 frames @ 12 fps; High: 23 frames @ 9 fps; Middle: 46 frames @ 6 fps; and 100 frames @ 3 fps.
    • Best Frame Capture: The Best Frame Capture mode lets you take a series of 8 pictures starting before and ending after the shutter button is pressed. You can choose the frame rate at 12, 9, 6, or 3 fps. You can vary how the 8 frames are distributed before and after the button is pressed.
    • AE bracket: 3 frames (selected exposure, overexposure, underexposure) by 1/3, 2/3, or 1 EV
    • ISO bracket: 3 frames (selected sensitivity, sensitivity raised, sensitivity lowered) by 1/3, 2/3, or 1 EV
    • Film Simulation: 3 frames (any 3 types of film simulation)
    • Dynamic Range: 3 frames (100%, 200%, 400%)

    Self-timer: The camera gives you the choice of a 10-second or 2-second self timer. The 10 second self timer is recommended for self portraits, while the 2-second self timer is used to reduce blur caused by the camera moving when the shutter button is pressed.

    Interval Timer Shooting: You can set up a time lapse photo session with the X30. Up to 999 frames can be taken at intervals between 1 second and 24 hours in 1-second increments. The first photo can be taken immediately or delayed up to 24 hours. To save battery life, the display turns off between shots, and lights a few seconds before the next shot is taken. The display can be activated at any time by pressing the shutter button all the way down.

    Focus Mode: The camera has a 3-position focus mode selector next to the lens on the front of the camera. The following options are available:

    • Single AF (AF-S): Focus locks while the shutter button is pressed halfway. Good for stationary subjects.
    • Continuous AF (AF-C): The camera continually adjusts focus to reflect changes in the distance between the camera and the subject. Good for moving subjects.
    • Manual Focus (MF): Focus manually using the sub-command dial on the back of the camera. The LCD monitor indicates the focus distance range (in meters or feet) and the depth of field.

    Focus Range: The camera's focus range is approximately 1.6' to infinity in Wide Angle, and 2.6' to infinity in Telephoto. In the Macro mode, the focus range is approximately 3.9" to 9.8' in Wide Angle, and 1.6' to 9.8' in Telephoto. In the Super Macro mode, the focus range is 0.39" to 3.3' (wide angle).

    Flash Modes: The X30 has a built-in manual pop-up flash with an effective range of 0.9' to 22.9' in Wide Angle, and 1.6' to 16.4' in Telephoto. Red-eye removal minimizes the "red-eye" effect, and is available for each flash mode. You can choose from the following flash modes:

    • Auto: flash fires automatically as required by the shooting conditions
    • Forced Flash: flash will fire whenever a picture is taken
    • Slow Synchro: auto flash combined with slow shutter speeds (tripod recommended)
    • Commander: A flash mounted on the hot shoe can be used to control optional remote flash units.
    • Suppressed Flash (Off): flash does not fire, even when the subject is poorly lit.

    Hot Shoe: The X30 is equipped with an accessory hot shoe that can be used to mount an optional external flash or microphone.

    Light Metering: The X30 uses 256-segment, TTL (through-the-lens) metering, where the camera automatically assesses the scene and selects the optimum exposure. You can select from three metering options: Multi, Spot, or Average.

    Viewing Images: Images can be played back one-at-a-time or in a variety of multi-frame views. Multi-frame options include a 9-image grid (3 x 3) and a 100-image grid (10 x 10) of micro-thumbnails. In the 9- and 100-image grid views, the highlighted image is slightly enlarged.

    Image Search: The Image Search function lets you search pictures by the following criteria: by Date, by Face, by Favorites, by Scene, by Type of Data, and by Upload Mark.

    Playback Zoom/Cropping: You can enlarge a still image in the monitor according to the image quality (size). After you have zoomed in and scrolled the picture to the desired composition, you can create a cropped image of a picture. Copies will have an aspect ratio of 4:3, and will be saved as a separate file.

    Resize: To create a small copy of a picture, you can select "Resize" from the menu. The new images vary in size with the original image.

    Slide Show: You can view pictures in an automated slide show. You can select normal playback, normal playback that zooms in on faces, or multiple pictures at once.

    Printing Pictures: Using DPOF (Digital Print Order Form), you can designate which images to print, and whether to print them with or without date. Pictures can be printed as followed:

    • Printer or Photo Lab: plug the camera into a Pictbridge-compatible printer, insert the memory card into a compatible printer, or take the memory card to a digital photo lab
    • Transferring to Computer: transfer the images to a computer before printing them

    Power Requirements: The X30 is powered by the supplied NP-95 Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery (3.6V 1700mAh 6.2Wh). A fully-charged NP-95 is good for approximately 470 shots. The battery charges in the camera when connected with the supplied AC-5VT AC adapter in about 4 hours and 30 minutes.

    Auto Power Off Function: When the camera is operated on battery power, the Auto Power Off function will automatically turn off the camera to reduce the drain on the batteries if no operations are performed for 2 minutes or 5 minutes, as set in the menu. Regardless of the option selected, the camera will not automatically turn off when connected to a printer or computer, or when a slide show is in progress.

    Inputs and Outputs Notes
