I only used a NX1000 with a kit lens and this 30/2 on my travels across scandinavia and europa in 2013. The kit lens worked flawless and so this 30mm except when I tried to take som mountain pictures in P modes with autofocus (I don't remember if I tried other modes or manual focus). And this was in both excellent lighting conditions during day and nightshoots from a steady/fix point with a timer. Range on these "test" shoots varied from 2-3 km to maybe 10 km.

It looked like a "hole" in the software or something. I have used many cameras and lenses since and before without any issues like this.

Otherways my 30/2 was excellent and very sharp..

Maybe your camera had an issue with AF system?

I used this lens in different situation always perfect.

Poor lighting on performance wide open

an architecture in mountains.

and a plain in mountains

You know I live in the mountains every day.
