Fujifilm X-T4 vs X-T30 II

The X-T4 leads on more headline specs, but the X-T30 II counters on a lighter 378 g body.

The short version

The Fujifilm X-T4 and Fujifilm X-T30 II are both Fujifilm X-T bodies. The X-T30 II is the newer of the two, arriving in 2021. At launch the X-T4 was $1,699 and the X-T30 II $899, making the X-T30 II the more affordable of the two.

On paper the X-T4 is the stronger body of the two. It gives you 15 fps continuous shooting, 4K/60p video, and 6.5-stop in-body stabilization, with a few smaller wins on top of that.

The X-T30 II isn't far behind. It hits back with a lighter 378 g body.

So which one? If you want 15 fps continuous shooting, get the X-T4. If a lighter 378 g body is closer to what you actually need, the X-T30 II is the smarter buy. And the X-T30 II costs less — $899 at launch.
