The only thing that is better in X-T30 is focusing system. X-T20's focusing system is still very good. The X-T30 is perfect for a ping-pong championship reporter. The T20 will cope with everything else. In 99% of situations my X-T20's focusing system is way better then it wood be necessary to do the job. The real advantage of T30's focusing system is video. Then it makes a lot of sense. For still images you won't even see a difference. I didn't.

Does T30 share the backlit sensor with the T3? If that isn't stripped - it's a HUGE perk for AF and superior in the dark that I'd personally keep in the belt than opt out of.

Yes, same sensor and all those extra AF points. Its actually quite impressive how well focus tracks and face detection works. I took pictures of my granddaughter on a swing moving toward and away from my and it never missed a beat and that was with a slow focussing lens (so I am told)

I would agree that video is also very much improved altho if your shooting video of stationary objects switch to manual, it like most consumer cameras has a nasty habit of rechecking focus when nothing is moving.
