NX30 - excellent color
1

NX30 was my favourite NX camera, despite owning and using NX1 and NX500. I got most joy using it and resuts were superb:

- excellent color rendition. Natural, true life but nicely saturated. NX1 is muted in comparison and I often use NX30 color profile for NX1 photos in DXO.

- fully articulated LCD. Tilting LCD in NX1 is a big downgrade.

- grip. for me, clearly better than NX1 (even though NX1 has a very good one)

- interestingly, better AF with 30mm pancake and other non-S lenses (i.e. not necessarily faster, but always set - NX1 tens to hunt and give up very quickly; NX30 hunts longer and eventually acquires it)

However, my NX30 collects dust while I'm using my NX1.

- AF, esp. AF-C. I have kids, AFC is my best friend.

- Better IQ (lower noise even at low iso, more resolution, better DR)

- 4K. Great 4K.

Maybe one day i'll take my NX30 for a walk again.
