Re: Thanks for the comparison shots

Knowing what you do now would you still have purchased the 20mm to use along side the 18-55mm?

Yes.

Like you do I shoot a lot while out walking. When I bought the NX10 I got the 18-55 and the 30mm. At first (for ~9 months) I used the 18-55 almost all the time; used to zooms coming from P&S's.  As time passed, I used the 30mm more often; to the point where I thought about getting another pancake. When the 20mm was available for $189 I jumped on it. Those pancakes are great when out walkiing, hiking.

I have since added the 16 & 60mm's when very good deals came about on those two. Now the zooms have sat unused for months now.

So far every NX item I have purchased has been at what I consider very good sale prices. It pays to be patient. Quite often my first news of these sales have come on this forum. So thanks to the people of this forum.

FWIW, you have a very good combo to shoot lots of good, fun photos. Use it a lot and enjoy.
