    Overview

    The Samsung NX-M 17mm F1.8 OIS is a fast prime lens for the NX Mini system, offering a bright aperture on a 1-inch sensor. Optical strengths include good detail resolution, but the lens adds bulk, making the camera less pocketable (dpreview commenters). Build quality is plastic-feeling. It suits users who prioritize speed and image quality over compactness, though the system's limited lens selection and high cost relative to larger-sensor alternatives are drawbacks (dpreview comments).
