Overview

The Samsung NX 20mm F2.8 Pancake is a compact, lightweight lens (96g) with a 30mm equivalent field of view, ideal for street photography. Optically, it delivers good sharpness from f/4, though corners are soft at f/2.8. Distortion and chromatic aberration are well corrected in-camera or in raw. Build quality is good with a metal mount and smooth focus ring. The i-Function button offers convenient control but may confuse new users. Autofocus is fast and reliable. Best suited for photographers seeking a portable, versatile prime for everyday and street use.
