I know the NX30 seems to have improved the focusing with the addition of phase detection, but given the fact I can buy a Canon 100d for about half the cost, it being almost as small, and have silent STM video focusing, means I will give it a miss.
I think a better choice would be a Sony NEX 6 with 16-50mm PZ. In the US it is on clearance now for about $524 US. http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Compact-Interchangeable-Digital-16-50mm/dp/B0096W1OKS
The 100D is still SLR thick, they can't make it any thinner.
Jaberwok has some great advice on shooting video as well, I haven't ever done much video so try not to comment too much about it.

The Sony seems to have pretty much everything. I did try a NEX 5 once, but I just couldn't get on with the menus. Shame they didn't put a touch screen on there as well.
The ultimate camera for me would be the Olympus OMD M1 - compact, fantastic viewfinder, very rapid accurate AF, great set of lenses (with models that are near silent focusing). Great interface, features etc. but at over £1k it's out of my budget...
Olympus cameras are not exactly famous from their video quality. if video is important then why not panasonic e.g. g5 or g6?
Nikon D600
Samsung NX300
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G6
