The FUJIFILM X-T30 III made its debut in Indonesia on November 22, 2025, immediately drawing the attention of photographers, tech journalists, and content creators. Its sleek, classic black design combines elegance with modern technology, appealing strongly to creatives seeking a compact yet powerful camera. Priced at around $1,050 for the body and $1,250 with the XC 13-33mm lens kit, this new model fills a crucial gap in the compact camera market without sacrificing performance.
Masato Yamamoto, President Director of FUJIFILM Indonesia, emphasized that the X-T30 III targets young creators and Generation Z users who value style, speed, and authenticity in storytelling. This camera is designed as more than just a photography tool; it is a creative partner for producing authentic and fast-paced visual content.
Advanced Imaging Technology for Fast and Accurate Capture
Inside its retro body, the FUJIFILM X-T30 III houses a 26.1MP X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor coupled with the powerful X-Processor 5. This setup doubles the image processing speed from the previous generation, enabling photographers to respond quickly in dynamic shooting environments. This performance boost aligns well with the demands of today’s fast-moving visual culture.
The camera’s autofocus system uses advanced deep learning algorithms. It can detect faces, eyes, and an array of subjects such as animals, birds, vehicles, aircraft, trains, and drones. This intelligent autofocus allows photographers to concentrate on composing their story without worrying about technical focus issues. For video creators, the X-T30 III supports impressive recording options including 6.2K/30P 4:2:2 10-bit video, 4K at 60fps, and super slow motion at 1080p/240fps. Such specifications enable cinematic-quality footage with a compact setup.
Enhanced Film Simulation Dial for Creative Expression
FUJIFILM’s signature film simulation modes return with greater versatility in the X-T30 III. A dedicated dial on the camera body lets users instantly switch between 20 different film simulation styles. From the sharp, vivid REALA ACE to the soft, colorful NOSTALGIC Negative, photographers can easily tailor the camera’s look to match their artistic mood or subject.
Additionally, three customizable slots (FS1, FS2, FS3) allow users to save preferred color profiles. This personalization not only reflects users’ visual identity but also streamlines consistency across image series. Such features cater especially to creators who value cohesive aesthetics on platforms like Instagram or online portfolios.
Compact, Ergonomic, and Ready for Any Adventure
Weighing just 378 grams (about 0.83 lbs), the FUJIFILM X-T30 III is designed to be a constant companion. Its compact size and retro-style viewfinder provide a comfortable shooting experience reminiscent of classic cameras. An Auto Mode Selector lever simplifies operation for beginners and busy creators by automatically setting exposure and focus, speeding up shot-taking.
The camera also features a pop-up flash for low-light conditions and a high-resolution, tilting LCD screen. This flexible screen aids capturing from difficult angles, which benefits travelers, street photographers, and vloggers alike. The ergonomic grip enhances comfort for extended use.
Moreover, the X-T30 III integrates seamlessly into FUJIFILM’s ecosystem. It connects directly with Instax Link printers without needing extra apps, allowing users to capture photos, apply film simulations, and print instantly in several formats including Instax Mini, Square, and Wide. This instant analog-print option adds a tactile dimension to digital photography.
FUJIFILM has crafted the X-T30 III to meet the evolving demands of visual storytellers who want a lightweight, fast, and expressive camera. Its blend of cutting-edge sensor technology, intelligent autofocus, rich film simulation options, and portability makes it a versatile tool that supports creative freedom across photography and videography. For content creators striving to tell authentic stories with speed and style, the X-T30 III represents a compact revolution in camera design.
