NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - August 26, 2014) - Succeeding last year's X20, Fujifilm has just announced the new X30 digital camera that brings with it a range of refinements well suited to the advanced point-and-shoot market. Opting for a new high-resolution electronic viewfinder versus the previous optical viewfinders, the Fuji X30 adds a 0.65x-magnification 2.36m-dot OLED Real Time Viewfinder with adaptive brightness and orientation settings and a display lag time of just 0.005 of a second. Further enhancing viewing capabilities, this new camera incorporates a larger 3.0" 920k-dot rear LCD screen, which features a tilting design to better facilitate working from low shooting angles. Among other handling improvements, this model also integrates a second control ring surrounding the lens to provide more intuitive control over aperture and shutter-speed settings.

Carried over from its predecessor, the Fujifilm X30 features the same 12MP 2/3" X-Trans CMOS II sensor and EXR Processor II, which combine to realize faster continuous shooting up to 12 fps; Intelligent Hybrid AF, which focuses as quickly as 0.06 of a second; and full HD 1080p60 movie recording at 36Mbps. The same Fujinon 4x optical zoom lens is featured here, too, and provides a 35mm equivalent focal-length range of 28-112mm, along with a variable maximum aperture of f/2.0-2.8 and four-stop-effective optical image stabilization.

Under the hood, a new film simulation mode has been added -- Classic Chrome -- which delivers nostalgic, muted tones with rich color depth. This mode serves to complement the range of other Fujifilm film-inspired simulation modes, as well as a palette of other creative shooting effects. Additionally, for extended shooting sessions, a new battery has been added that is capable of delivering approximately 470 shots per charge. Featuring a durable magnesium-alloy body, the X30 is available in Black or Silver.
