    It's a no brainer for me. I sold my X-T30 to buy the X-S10 and I haven't looked back. Yes, I do love the retro look of the T30 (I have the X-T3 and the X100V) but the X-S10 has the ISO button which you can also change say your auto 1, 2 and 3 settings on the fly. The top right wheel is the EV so not really losing anything that I thought at fiirst I would need to dive into the menus for - and not forgetting the IBIS. The X-S 10 is a great choice in my opinion

    @CharlezRichard 2 ปีที่แล้ว +45

    There are a few missed points that are crucial when comparing these two cameras. I have used both extensively for video. IBIS is the only thing better on the X-S10 when it works. NOTICE that I say when it works. Many times your IBIS on the X-S10 will give you a wobbly effect. Now something that NO ONE has mentioned is that the X-S10 supports UHD type 1 cards only while the X-T30ii supports UHD type 2 cards. Furthermore, when using a gimbal, the articulating screen on the X-S10 is unusable. It gets in the way of filming and balancing the camera properly on the gimbal. Hope this helps. Cheers 🍻.

      Quick question. I am split between either of these as a BACK UP to my XT4. I do not really think a time will come when the XT4 will die on me at a wedding or whatever, but in that instance I will need a second camera and I think a second XT4 is overkill (I'm sure I can wing the rest of the days event with either of these two cameras).
      I am PURELY interested in Stills (I don't do video at a wedding), and I find IBIS a little surplus to requirement as I am quite often shooting 1/320 or more throughout the days event. I don't really need a complete duplication of feature set of what the XT4 has (if I did I'd just buy a second one). What matters more to me is BUFFER. Correct me if I am wrong but in theory the XT30II at 5fps should kick the X-S10's butt for buffer? I may even wish to shoot RAW+Jpg (as I quite often work from the Jpgs) but I am imagining that will really thrash the buffer so I'll just have to shoot RAW only and use X Raw Studio after the fact and generate the Jpgs from the RAWs.
      But yeh, I'm actually thinking the cheaper, smaller XT30II cameras is the better STILLS backup for the XT4 (for things like weddings and events where IBIS is actually not as critical as one might think when using small primes). Am I looking at things wrong?

    • @CharlezRichard

      @@SummersSnaps If this is your workflow, let me recommend even a better camera than the X-T30ii or the X-S10. The X-T3. The prices now are ridiculously low., under $1000. That really is more compatible with the X-T4. But yes 100% definitely the X-T30ii is way better than the X-S10.

    • @SummersSnaps
      @SummersSnaps 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@CharlezRichard That camera was on my radar as well, but there was one thing that put me off (and you'll laugh), but its the outdated X trans sensor and lack of matching XT4 sims. I actually have done a few weddings and events now where I have shot RAW to one card and Jpg to another and lightly retouched the Jpgs and handed over to the client. The rendered Fuji look can be that good. I want to ensure that I am not unable to match whatever profile I use with the XT4 with the second backup body, so it really was a tie between the XS10 and XT30II in this regard.
      I thought the XS10 would be the closer match to the XT4 (and in many ways it is), but thinking about things a bit more (and purely from Stills perspective) I think the XT30II will be the actual better choice. Thanks for confirming this.

    Have and love the XT4 ... BUT ... want the XS10 as a smaller second/backup because it has both IBIS and fully articulating screen, plus the nice grip. Have used PASM on other cameras so that's fine(XT4 has all the real dials like my film cameras have).
    GREAT comparison between the XS10 and XT30ii...really clarifies the differences for those looking at both.

    My dream Camera : XT 30ii with slightly deeper grip + IBIS. Wouldn't lose my patience for it, it has to be done one day. Fujifilm, there are a whole lot of photographers who prefer "tilt screen" to a "fully articulating screen", retro look with direct controls (menu driven controls are such a botheration), slightly deeper grip (but not as deep as XS 10, making it ugly & bulky), and IBIS. We will have lovely camera in hand.

    First off, super cool you guys are anglers AND Fuji shooters. I'm a designer/photographer in Oregon and also shoot and provide brand design for clients while also guiding fly fishers on our local rivers and of course fishing for myself whenever I can. I am in the market for a second body as I been shooting an XH-1 since 2018. I am looking for a smaller camera that I can take when I travel and for fishing and hunting excursions and it also be a second camera for architectural, hospitality and food shoots as I am constantly changing between a wide angle, 80mm macro and a prime 18mm. I also have clients wanting more video so throwing that in the mix brought the X-S20 in play. Just watched the X-S20 review and am considering that now as my top choice. I'm old school on the manual controls but think I can program the function buttons to my liking and not miss a beat when shooting. Thanks tons for the great reviews and keep them coming!

I came across a brand new old stock X-T2 for a slightly discounted price. I bought it and cancelled the back- ordered X-S10. Two reasons I bought the X-T2: it’s made in Japan and I am an old fashioned guy who likes the retro look and controls.

    We ain't getting IBIS and classic dials due to artificial market segmentation. If X-T30 mk II (or more like X-T40) had IBIS, it would mean they can't bring it as a feature in what I assume will be X-T50. New Fuji chip will probably be more like evolution than revolution, they can't bring dual SD slot or WR to lower segment, so they would say - oukay, this is X-T50 and it has new chip and animal tracking AF? Well, most of X-T10 and X-T20 users would be like: Oukay, I am getting discount X-T40 with IBIS, those things doesn't matter for me. Now, it will have IBIS and it makes it much more interesting.
    X-S10 is an attempt to lure people from other mounts, so ofc they are getting sweeter deal.

      All the fujicrons are WR. That's consistent, all the new line of 1.4s are. That's consistent.
      I think all the current XF lenses have aperture rings since they added it to the pancake, where it was obvious why the first version didn't have it due to size and engineering difficulty.
      No primes are stabilized, minus the 200 and 80mm macro for obvious specialty use case reasons.
      And for other ones they were balancing the use case for each focal length with price feature trade-off. only one i find weird is that the 16-55 zoom doesn't have OIS like the other major zooms. I think it'a definitely a case of there might be a couple anomalies vs no rhyme or reason.
      It's not the wild west though, nobody's grabbing random slips of paper from a hat to add features.
      Or maybe you're talking about XC lenses, but then it's like who cares those are XC lenses. The whole point of XCs is they have trade-offs for cheaper price,.

    It's fantastic - as are most, if not all of the most recent generation of X-Trans cameras - my only issue is the 'standard' dials you might find on a Sony/Nikon, etc. I just find some of the joy sucked out of the experience versus the more traditional Fuji dials (SS / ISO / EXP Comp) that really just - well - yeah, they bring me a little extra joy when shooting!

    i own xt30 mk1 - and for my needs, I simply dont see any chance to upgrade at all. I would rather go for XT-3 or 4

    At the end of the day you take photos with your eyes and brain first. I personally prefer the xt30 for pure enjoyment.

    So ... which of these upgrades on the X-T30II are actually hardware? The screen and a bit of RAM? Everything else seems to be software, right? .... Why is this a new camera instead of a firmware update?

      Because they fcked up spec of the original xt30.

      My read on this is that it's related to the semiconductor shortage- Fuji is rationalizing their supply chain. The X-S10 gets allocated the existing stock of the old RAM and LCD panels, the X-T30 II gets the same panels and chips they're using in the X-T4.
      The film sims *should* be a firmware update but they wont do it sadly... Last time was when the X-T2 got Eterna after the X-H1 launch.

    Nothing to do with the cameras, but I found the landscapes very beautiful and thought the composition of the shots was great.

    Although presumably it will lower the second-hand price of the original XT30 and so make it harder for owners to upgrade to the XT4/XS-10...
    (A bit like the GH5-II for GH5 owners when the GH6 arrives...)
    XS-10 is the one to get IMHO BTW...

    couldnt pay much attention to the two Fuji s because the Panasonic S1H video is SO good.

    why does it feel that xt30 ii has sharper images than x-s10?
