What reviewers say

Both praise the compact design, detailed photographs and video improvements, while finding the update over the X-T30 II modest. TechRadar likes the colour rendering but criticises the missing in-body stabilisation, awkward shooting-mode changes and price. Photography Blog considers it a capable all-round camera and highlights the improved autofocus and buffer.
