Samsung 12-24mm f/4-5.6 Examples for comparison
In reply to viking79, 6 months ago

If anyone is interested here are my Samsung 12-24mm f/4-5.6 examples for the Samsung NX. It is a smaller and cheaper lens than the Sony (about $600, but no OS).

I have interest in both Sony NEX and Samsung NX compact systems. I own both, so not trying to troll or anything.

After shooting with the Samsung for a few days I am less impressed with the Sony.  However, the Samsung auto corrects the RAW with Lightroom, much like Olympus would, so it makes the experience more seamless for the user.

Build quality wise the lenses are very similar, bits of metal and plastic, well assembled, but maybe both slightly cheap feeling.  The Samsung is less bulky as well.  Both are about the same at 18mm, the Samsung is f/4.5 and the Sony f/4.  I think the sony is larger because it goes to 10mm.
