We have compared the core specification of recently announced Fujifilm X30 camera with the Fujifilm X20 camera, but we are not able to find any major difference between the X30 and X20… take a look
The worst part is the Sensor and Optical lens remains same, Why a current Fuji X20 owner will spend $600 to get same image quality from a new camera? Fuji is just Re-branding old product with a new name ..improving the display screen, adding WiFi..etc… will not improve the image quality … don’t waste your money in Buying in the X30 camera.. If you want to buy compact X series camera with phase AF support we recommend you to go with Fujifilm X20, Since the X20 will cost you $150 less than current X30 camera and will give you same image quality as of the new one.

Take a look at the list of ALL 51 improvements the X20 has over the X10,
1. 2/3-inch X-Trans CMOS II sensor without optical low pass filters improves resolution to as much as a 4/3″ sensor.
2. S/N ratio improved to level similar to Full frame sensors.
3. Phase detection AF allows for AF speeds as low as 0.04secs (compared to X10 0.16secs).
4. 1080p HD video @ 60fps (X10 1080p HD video @ 30fps).
5. Phase detection Autofocus also works during movie recording.
6. Face detection works during movie recording.
7. In movie recording, moiré and false colour are minimised (as in still image shooting)
8. Start up time of 0.9secs (1.5secs previously)
9. 12fps continuous shooting at max resolution (compared to 7fps previously)
10. 0.5secs shooting interval (1.1secs previously)

14. Advanced Optical Viewfinder allows for the following information to be displayed as an overlay on the optical viewfinder:
Focus indicator
Exposure Compensation
Shutter Speed + Aperture Value
ISO Setting + Shooting Mode
Flash/Self Timer icons
Focus Area
Parallax Caution
AF Error, Blur Caution
15. Eye sensor to change between LCD/OVF automatically

19. ‘Multiplex Exposure’ function. View first shot on LCD then frame
second shot over the top.
20. Q-Button (Quick) for instant access to shooting menus as standard.
