New NX10 owner. Just a few questions.

Hello,

I was browsing craigslist last night for lenses to go with my m4/3 and someone was selling a NX10 on the cheap so I though why not and if I don't like it I should be able to sell it on at the same or slightly less no harm. So I picked it up and it looks nice.

So,

1) The kit lens I got with it seems fairly good. I noticed there is a 20-50mm. I'm I right in thinking this is the same optical quality as the regular 18-55mm m1 and m2 just more compact?

2) When using MF assist the image zooms in which is cool, but one little feature on the GF2 I really like is it comes up with a guide to tell you were you are in the focus range. Is there any similar functionality on the NX10?

3) I don't anticipate getting many more lenses for it as I already have many m4/3. The only one I am considering at the moment is the 30mm because it's small, fast and normal (and i'm missing a normal prime from my m43 lineup as the 25mm pany/leica is expensive and constantly out of stock). If you could own only one NX lens other than the kit would this be a good candidate?

4) While NX as a platform looks to be a bit shaky, Samsung has lots of money and I'm sure would want to try to stick with it while mirror-less becomes popular. Is this a correct read?

5) Anything else a new owner of a NX10 should know?

Thanks
Brendan
