NX30, NX500, NX1
1

So my wife and I are looking at making our first major camera purchase. I've been rather impressed about what I've read about the NX lineup of camera's.

Initial uses:

- Baby/Kid photos (little one on the way)

- Vacations / Sight Seeing

- Family / Friend gatherings

Future (as we get more comfortable, expand what lenses we have):

- Landscape / Scenery

We really like the idea of the NX500 for how compact and versatile it is. Obviously no mic input and the fact that 4k video is cropped is kind of a drawback, it still seems like an incredibly solid camera for starting out that we can easily grab and go.

The NX1 is obviously an absolute beast, is it worth investing the money into that camera starting out? Considering we'd be looking to purchase lenses as we go as well.

NX30, a bit older now (I think slightly over a year), odds of a updated version being released this year? Still seems like a solid camera for the price point to me, plus it has mic in.

We're open to other camera's, I'm not sure why but this line caught my interest the most. Feel free to suggest common lens choices and their roles (I've noticed eveyone seems to suggest the 30mm)

Thanks in advance!
