Automatic exposure is a little on the slow side.You don't have to use the old-school dials if you don't want to as everything can be done by the menu or touchscreen. Overall, it's a smart-looking, retro design that stands out when seated next to the more mundane-looking mirrorless cameras from other brands. It's no biggie, but a niggle nonetheless.īecause of the small size of the camera, the rubberized grip area is too small to really feel secure in the hand, for sustained use we'd recommend purchasing an external grip to provide that bit more comfort and reassurance when shooting. On more than one occasion we accidentally pressed it when composing and taking shots. The only button placement we're a bit baffled by is the 'Q' (Quick Menu) button which is right next to (or underneath if you have bigger hands) where you'd place your thumb.
Other controls and playback functions are navigated either using buttons and a joystick at the rear of the camera, but also using the touchscreen which will feel familiar to smartphone and tablet users. This makes the photography process feel more traditional and hands-on, something we like. There are physical dials for adjusting the exposure compensation, shutter speed, ISO, and the aperture using the Aperture Ring on the lens. Obviously, more advanced functionality can be found within the on-screen menu. The tactile aluminum alloy dials mean you can pick the camera up for the first time and get to work without having to navigate the menu system. The Fujifilm X-T30 has tactile aluminium alloy dials that make it easy to operate in all climes (Image credit: Tantse Walter)Ī stand-out part of the design of the X-T30 II is the dial-based operation.
