You'll love it. It's quirky as heck. I wish I could wake up the screen with the shutter button, but you have to press the power button which you can't reach with one hand when you hold the camera. The auto viewfinder switch from screen to viewfinder is also sluggish, or rather you have to line up your eye perfectly. I've had some issues where the camera just wouldn't focus, but that could be the lens I'm using.

That being said, I love this camera. It fits my hand perfectly, I love the large screen. And I also like the viewfinder. You know it's a classic when you pick up the GNX. I am just about to return from a 4 week trip to Germany and Spain. Brought along my NX Mini and Fuji Xpro 1. I love both of those cameras and the Fuji output is superb, yet I still reached for the GNX 70% of the time. I used it with the 16-50PZ and the Ricoh DW-6 wide angle converter and the 30mm. But the lens I reached for the most was the 18-200. It gets a bad rap but I find it to be very capable with a unique way of rendering.

Speaking of the 18-200. I just downloaded my travel pics from the NX Mini with adapter and it's a stunning combination. Beautiful output.

I know all about the GNX - owned one for a before the NX1! Still one of my favourite cameras. 😃

And the 18-200mm is a great lens. Just wish mine had come with a hood - seems impossible to get hold of the original and 3rd party hoods won't work with a filter.
