NEWS: Samsung NX Lens Manufacturer - OPTRON-TEC
Re: NEWS: Samsung NX Lens Manufacturer - OPTRON-TEC
There have been big changes in that company recently. Split off and a merger
http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/keyDevelopments?symbol=082210.KQ&pn=2
Could have to do with a new role in lens production and a contract with Samsung. They were busy with optical elements for some time.
I don't think Samsung goes on the cheap with this. More likely lens designs from other sources produced in this company with control from Samsung and the lens designers. Schneider Kreuznach is a likely candidate for the last. Don't underestimate Schneider Kreuznach, if it allows a license on some of their Digitar designs you couldn't have a better source for NX primes.
We don't know half of what goes on in lens manufacturing and design. Korea had more surprises in lens manufacturing in the past and more recently the 85 mm 1.4 Polar lens from Samyang showed good quality at an affordable price.
