Overview

The Samsung NX 30mm F2 Pancake is a compact, well-built prime lens with good optical performance. It is very sharp at medium apertures, with minimal distortion and chromatic aberrations. Weaknesses include rough bokeh and noticeable flare when shooting into the sun. Its fly-by-wire manual focus may take getting used to. Suited for NX system users seeking a lightweight, general-purpose lens for everyday photography.
