Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm X20 is significantly lighter (70g ) than the Fujifilm X30 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm X20 nor Fujifilm X30 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing
LCD Screen Size and Features
Fujifilm X30's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm X20's 2.8" screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Fujifilm X30 LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Fujifilm X20 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to X30.
