Re: NX300 - New 30mm / f2.0 Pancake Lens

18-55 is stabilised while the primes aren't. The stabilisation should give you the effect of at least 2 stops slower shutter speed so long as you have a reasonably steady hand, likewise its partner the 50-200. Forget the fact they are 'kit' lens as they are very good. This stabilisation should help compensate for the smaller maximum aperture.

Avoid the 16mm as it's not as good as the 20mm / 30mm unless well stopped down to around f8. Wide open in low light it has 'issues'.

If you can afford it the 12-24 is an excellent lens and really good as a walk around lens left on the camera unless you need something else.
