NX500: hacks on latest firmware, MF assist, HDMI questions

Hi,

I'm thinking of getting hold of one of the last NX500 cameras. But I have a few questions for you who have used this camera:

1) When used with third party (adapted) lenses, I read that focus assist (magnification & peaking) is turned on by pressing the OK button. Does the camera stay in this mode, or does it time out? If the latter, how fast?

2) Does the "hacks" work with the latest firmware (1.11)?

3) How does the camera behave with HDMI connected, in record mode? I want to be able to use the camera as a macroscope (with a third party macro lens attached, the camera on a mount filming my desk, and viewing the image live on a monitor). Is this possible?

Thanks!

ANSWER:
Samsung NX500
