I`m sure you will !! . give you chance to give the 30 a good trial too

Now, there again we differ. I can see the use of a full tlter screen, just have no use for it myself, as I don't do, "selfies,"

I don`t either, the twister comes into its own when doing overheads (flippers don`t flip down enough), group shots etc from funny angles (twisting to the side isn`t only for Video) and for avoiding the sun as they twist anywhere, what I really like is that they fold in to protect the LCD and also avoid irritating touch screen issues (depending on cam - not the NX20 of course) without disabling touch in the menus

Ah right. I haven't use a twister enough yet to see the full advantages, but have to agree about the tist away to cover the screen from acidental, "nose touches," lol.

get some height for overhead crown shots, or just up looking down shots. I'll have to see today, how the 30's screen performs in bright sunlight.

I found the 20 to be OK despite the age of the screen tech, you can always twist it to shield it anyway . what I didn`t like was the EVF optics, it was always blurry in one corner or another , the EVF itself panel was fantastic but you can see why Panasonic EVFs stick out too far at the back - the optics are a lot better - I hope with the new tilting EVF thing on the 30 is a lot better in this regard than the 20 , I`d think that moving EVF would be perfect for macro work , it`d be like looking into a Microscope

I thing the screen is too small for MACRO work, although must admit that I haven't used it much for anything yet, let alone Macro, so it MAY be just my personal feelings. Perhaps, I'll see if I can fit some macro in next week.
