Thanks, I already have a z50 and all Nikon’s DX Z lenses to use with it. But i’m thinking of buying this Z30 as a more compact every day carry option. I’ve been extremely pleased with the raw image quality out of these. I too wish the mid range zoom option was faster, but I actually find it quite sharp and free of vignetting or ghosting.

I really like your videos. Thankfully you are the one who dedicates one entire video for photography where as other reviewers give more priority to video (my opinion though). I am thinking of buying a new camera soon, do you feel this is still the best camera to have in 2024 or if there's any alternative to look for.

Nice review. Have had a Miiis for a couple years now. Fun to use.

Helped a lot, thanks!

You are fantastic teacher and explainer. You have made me love my Fujifilm xt30 even more. Thank you for your incredible effort in making this incredible educational video.

Hi Maarten. Thanks for the channel and your nice reviews. Is it still worth buying a used RP or is it better to look at newer crop cameras (R10, X-10S/20S)? No specific tasks, general family/travel photography (start with kit lenses, primes in case of RP). Been mostly using the phone for the last few years, but would like to get back to cameras (and trying FF looks tempting). Thanks.

Fantastic review!

I'd buy this today if the magenta didn't ruin skin tones

Thank you very much.

I found the NiSi filter mount system for this and the VI. Custom-designed filter system for Sony RX100VI and RX100VII camerasDurable aluminum filter holder, with 360-degree rotation for flexible orientationIncludes four high-quality glass filters: Medium GND8, HD Polarizer, ND8, and Natural Night

the best review i've seen on youtube ever thank you Sr you are the best

Why oh why did Fuji screw up the top half of the camera from the excellent appearance of the top of both the X10 and X20???

you did such a great job here. thank you

Thank you so much for your this video. Just got a brand new X-S10 and your video is amazing!

BOUGHT ONE, TRIED IT OUT............WENT STRAIGHT BACK TO MY OLD TRIED AND TRUE D7200.

Will this work for Fujifilm XT4?

so glad i found this! perfect settings needed for my streaming setup! Thank you!! (im using an a6100)

Useless app

Indeed Nikon tend to have a tad much yellow in skin tones, which in my experience is not always most pleasing solution.

Excellent review. Thank you!

I’m a little late to the party, but I just picked up an X-H1 for some work that I do. What a great camera, even all these years later. Thanks for the review. I’ve loved your work, and as an expat from Toronto living in Japan it is always great to see nature and scenes from Canada!

Can you make a video on preference setting for video? I currently have a z30 and am thinking to use it for video? Would you recommend this?

I wonder if the overheating would occur if it was being powered via USB port?

Great video and tutorial 😊

De beste review op UKposts!! Best review on UKposts, extremely well done Maarten!!

The best video review you can find about this camera.

Hey! Can fujifilm xa5 save custom presets of film sim like other cameras? Cause as i know the xt30 can save up to 7 custom film sim on it but idk if fujifilm xa5 can save any or not

It's very much the opposite in Japan. Most young couples, and parents of all ages have a relatively nice camera for special days out. Even many high school students have taken up an interest in photography. There is in fact a sharp decrease in smart phone use in that age group after seeing siblings and parents buried face first in their phones for the better part of the last decade.

This was very entertaining Maarten. I've been watching you for years, and never noticed the eyebrow. Now I can't look away, so thanks for that new distraction.

Hi Martin! Fine video. Maybe you can help me decide. Lumix GX850 or GM1? The GX850 looks great, but I'll rarely use 4K video, and I have large hands. I'm using an Olympus E-PL6, which is handy. And have a variety of M43 lenses. What would you choose as a used purchase? Thank you.

oh thank you so much ive searched the entire internet for a video like this one and finally after 3 weeks my algorithm showered you channel <3 good things comes for those who wait!!!!

Such a informative useful video! Thanks a ton, do you by chance know how to turn the filters off once you’ve got them on? Thank uu

i would like to shoot with two bodies, having 2 primes on each. i already own an xt3. would you guys recommend me getting another xt3 or and xt2 at half the price?

I have 2 record settings instead of 3 (25p 50M and 50p 50M) did this change with the 3.21 firmware update?

Greetings from Ireland Martin - I started on Xpro 1 and have ended cup with XH-1 and I just cant find any good reasons to jump up to XH-2 for my photography needs - love the XH-1 and Made in Japan kinda works for me -- great review of the XH-2s.. and thanks Regards, Paul

Thanks!

Thank you so much, I have not shot video with this camera, but I love the stills. Great video

I guess my comment disappeared… Thanks for your review! Would you recommend the z30 for (point-and-shoot like) photography on my bike rides (I often stop when I see something beautiful 😊) instead of my heavy Z6? (I’m enthusiastic amateur with years of experience) Or is the camera of my iPhone 13 Pro almost as good as the Z30 with kit lens? I always wanted the Z50 for that but I could now get the Z30 kit for 600€ on Amazon and it should be smaller I guess …

I believe that you are using proper terminology describing the lens in use as "my sample". Rather than calling it "my copy," usually used by other reviewers. We own production SAMPLES made by official manufacturer. Often, the "copy" means "fake." Like "Rolex" for $35.. Thank you for your excellent review.

Thank you for such a detailed peek at the 780. This review along with a professional photographer thumbs up and I’m sold. Well done!

Co za wspaniała angielszczyzna i co za dykcja. Szanujesz swój język i widza. Pozdrawiam.

Thanks for making this review, ive just picked up a complete kit from ebay for a bargain price, and this review has been very helpful. Very much appreciated still in 2024!

Excellent video! This is the best canon EOS RP review I’ve seen

I love your videos! Your delivery is fantastic and enjoyable to watch.

So appreciate the considerations you’ve thought through presenting this information! Truly enjoyed my time learning from your video today, thank you.

Thank you for the detailed information! I learnt more here than elsewhere!

I am in doubt whether to take the Z30 or the R50, what do you recommend? Did you feel the lack of AVF on the Z30? Thank you

Excellent video. Thank you. I have had my S20 a couple of weeks and have watched a lot of videos and have read the manual a number of times. So far I have encountered a number of issues that I hope, possibly with assistance, to overcome. First, my photos don't load with my cable so I need to insert the chip. Second, there is no exposure compensation method that I can find. Best I can do is determine the auto recommendation and then adjust in manual. Some experimentation may be helpful. Third, raw RAF files aren't accepted by Photoshop Elements and the program says that the S20 is not a compatible camera.

This is a great channel. Thanks, you are amazing :-)

Absolutely brilliant, comprehensive review. Many thanks. I'm seriously thinking of downgrading from my heavy old SLR N500 as a 'walkabout' travel camera and looking around for serious options. How does it compare to, say, a TZ100/200 in your opinion? Many thanks - glad I stumbled across your video.
