I've just ordered an X-T30ii , this video has been really useful to me as this is my first Fuji. I will now fun through your other videos. Cheers for posting.
Although I am new to photography, I have had my T-X30ii for 2+ years. I have dipped in and out of beginner tutorials but found them either confusing or to technical, this video makes soooooo much sense and I have learnt so much. I am really happy that I found you and look forward to actually progressing. Thank you
Thank you sooo much for the video! Fujifilm should pay you for your efforts. The basic manual coming in the box is toooooo basic. I went through the 50 pages and found your video is much more useful!
thank you! recently switched to fujifilm. was super lost at first and kinda regretting the purchase. im used to the canon system but this video answered a lot of questions ive been seeking! thank you so much! cant wait for the next one =)
@@BrianCheyne I might be in a similar situation as well soon, thinking of buying one of these to replace my canon rebel t6. And this vid has shown me the ergonomics of this camera are much better than my current, having separate dials for shutter speed and one for iso and f stop seems a lot better than one and 3 buttons that switch between them (my current canon)
This is super helpful for someone like me who owns a fujifilm cam for the first time. Def gonna go thru all the tutorials you have. You're doing such a great job explaining everything thoroughly!
Thanks for a great video! I just got the camera (been using a canon for a few years before) and this was super helpful. I could have checked the manual but watching someone explain the functions AND show them work at the same time is just some much more faster.
Absolutely Brilliant! I learned more about the camera in that one video, than I have with quite a few others, clear, concise, and short, without deviating, well once, but, congratulations. Anyone who has a little idea of terminology and the way DSL’r’s work, but just want to pick up this camera and watch this through twice, your done ✅ DG UK New Forest
Indeed! I have picked up the camera yesterday and got sort of lost in all the different buttons and modes. This video brought me lots of steps further! Thanks man.
Brilliant and informative video, I’m new to photography and interested in this camera and now feel confident enough to purchase and begin to enjoy. Thanks from rural Lincolnshire uk
Very detail information I've received from your video. Many many thanks sir. I have just bought FUJIFILM XT30 II with XC15-45mm F3.5-5.6 kit lens for Streetphotography and everyday shooting ( I'm a Pharmacologist by profession and im from India ). And watching your video. It's helping me a lot. Subscribed your channel for other informations.
Thank you for this introduction into the X-T30. It was very helpful and interesting. The camera has a very good "feel". This introduction has given me more insight into the features of this fine camera. I will watch this a few more times to be sure. 👍 😎 📷 👌
Thanks so much for this! As someone who spends all day doing visual effects, sometimes I forget some of the basic functions of my Fuji. This is a super useful refresher.
Solid material. Thank you. In the process of unloading my Canon R, R6, years of L glass including the new RF 24-70 f/2.8 and RF 70-200 f/4. Just waaaay too heavy to carry while traveling. Made the switch to Fugi - those prime f/2 lenses seem fantastic. Fingers crossed I won't regret it. New subscriber!
Absolutely excellent video! Thank-you. I have been shooting Fuji for about 5 years, having migrated from Canon. I am getting older and need lighter hardware . . . this is it!!
Very helpful. I spent so long trying to work out how to change the ISO without having to go into the Q menu. Never would have worked out that the front dial can be pressed in. Cheers
Really well done. Having a T20 for the past year and the T30 for two days, I almost passed on this "basic" guide but glad I didn't as I learned a thing or two. Looking forward to the next video as setting up the menu has some different choices than the T20.
Thanks for an excellent video. I’ve been debating between this and the Olympus M10 Mark IV. I’ve got some experience that I enjoy using manual settings and testing my creativity but sometimes I just want an advanced fun point and shoot. Finding a camera suitable for experienced users that also offers fun quick filters for my lazy days that is affordable is proving to be harder than I thought. I like that it’s so easy to quickly change settings with this camera. I currently have a Sony and feel like I’m spending more time searching through menus then actually photographing.
Thanks wai...your videos are really useful to xt30 users, I got mine few days back.. and now I m addicted to your videos...I would gladly like to share my practice photos with you..tell me where I could share...Thanks for all the videos.
thank you for your usual thoughtful and thorough vid. a question: i have read that there is not enough room to use the x-t30's headphone jack 2.5 -> 3.5 adapter AND the usb -> mic adaptor at the same time. (this way you can monitor the mic via the headphones ala the x-t3) the ports seem to be just too close together. could you please confirm or correct? thumbs up.
Yes that is true. You can use the 2.5mm audio and the hdmi port at the same time but I do not have cables small enough to use the usb-c port and another input. If i do find cables slim enough to use all three ports at the same time, I will definitely make a video about it.
Hihi Great video 👍🏻! I just got my xt30 yesterday too! I got the 18-55m lens kit together but I’m wondering if I need to buy the 35mm f2 as a beginner ?
Hi Wai Lam, thanks for this useful introduction. I have a technical problem - I have been playing around with the settings. Now, when the camera is on A or P I can only see the shutter speed and aperture when I half press the shutter. Otherwise the values don't show up on the screen. How can I get them to be always visible as they are on your demonstration? Thanks

Just got the X-T30 for my 50th. This has really helped. Thanks.
Glad I could help Roddy, thank you for leaving a comment
ME TOO
Happy birthday! Merry Christmas!
Should I buy this camera as my first ever? Want to know the real honest user reviews
For a person like me who is new to the fuji system that was immensely helpful! Thank you
Glad it helped Vinayak, thank you for leaving a comment
Just a good no nonsense dive in to the nice adjustments that makes this a great camera
For all new viewers, this is still an appropriate video for the newer X-T30II. Thanks!
Thank you sooo much for the video! Fujifilm should pay you for your efforts. The basic manual coming in the box is toooooo basic. I went through the 50 pages and found your video is much more useful!
I just bought a Fujifilm X-T30 camera and this video is exactly what I needed. Thank you very much and well done!
Hello from Turkey. This is the only one video helped me a lot for my new xt30ii. Thx a lot
Perfect! I’ve used the X-T1 for three years. Had to borrow a T30 today and I was completely lost at the lack of buttons. This helped me out:)
Glad I could help, thank you for leaving a comment
thank you! recently switched to fujifilm. was super lost at first and kinda regretting the purchase. im used to the canon system but this video answered a lot of questions ive been seeking! thank you so much! cant wait for the next one =)
Glad I could help Dale and welcome to the fuji community
I am in the same boat. I have always been a Canon shooter but I got a X-T30 on loan now. This video is just what I needed. Thanks!
Same here

I’ve had my XT30 for about 3 years and i’ve learned more in this video than I have in those 3 years 😫😂 THANK YOU sir for this video!
Incredibly helpful. Picking up my first Fuji camera this afternoon.
Super helpful. Great explanations. Thank you!
Just bought mine! This is so in-depth and helpful. Thank you!

I got the EOS R last year but want to get a Fuji as my 2nd cam. Even though I don't travel much, it does get heavy and inconvenient at some points
Really good guide! Bravo! Really good video! 😊
This was really helpful, thank you!
thank you so much this helped me a lot ❤
Great video. I've been watching other videos describing the X-T30 but yours is the best due to its simplicity, I learned a couple things from it. :)
Absolutely excellent video! Thank-you. I have been shooting Fuji for about 5 years, having migrated from Canon. I am getting older and need lighter hardware . . . this is it!!
Glad I could help, thank you for the feedback

Wow loved the dials now i want one, question can you set the back dial to aperture or iso if you want them not using the front dial together
? Thanks
Excellent review for a beginner, thank you

Good value for your money 😊
Excellent video !! Thanks a ton !
Great video. Thank you very much
Apologies if I missed it, but is it possible to tap the screen where you want it to focus, or do you have to use the knob?
Exzellent in few words!
Nice Pace, well explained, Thank You Wai Lam

thank you a lot ,great clear explanation 👍👍
Thank you so much for these videos on the X-T30!
Do you know of a good fuji lens for bokeh that has in built stabilisation?
Thanks!
it would be the 50-140mm, 80mm, 16-55mm F2.8 are all very good.
@@WaiYingLam Thanks for the reply. I ended up buying the 35mm F1.4. No OIS unfortunately though.
Great into video. Please tell us which of your videos we are meant to watch next! (Maybe give a link!)
Thank you, here is the xt30 playlist, ua-cam.com/play/PL27KR21pgH84ia8evdVoQP5PMR2VDG8kR.html
Awesome review . Very useful
Hihi Great video 👍🏻! I just got my xt30 yesterday too! I got the 18-55m lens kit together but I’m wondering if I need to buy the 35mm f2 as a beginner ?
I would suggest to be used to your camera and you will know what lens you will need later
amazing video! Thank you!
Very helpful tutorial. Thank you.
Thank you for the feedback David, I appreciate it

Hi Wai Lam, thanks for this useful introduction. I have a technical problem - I have been playing around with the settings. Now, when the camera is on A or P I can only see the shutter speed and aperture when I half press the shutter. Otherwise the values don't show up on the screen. How can I get them to be always visible as they are on your demonstration? Thanks
Im not sure, I would recommend you Gear menu > USER SETTING > RESET to reset you camera back to factory default.
