Outstanding value!

Re: Outstanding value!

Thanks for the mini-review. Sounds like an interesting lens, especially when considering the price. It probably is one of the lenses that make the whole NX system more attractive to newcomers.

Although the manual focusing sounds like a big bummer.

I wonder if all the NX primes behave the same way? I also wonder if the manual focus ring is at least linear, 1:1 type, rather than dynamic, like in some Sony lenses? Both types are almost useless in video use, but the dynamic type is both useless and annoying.

Nevertheless, with the manual focusing and plastic fantastic barrel aside, at less than $250 it sounds like a bargain for an AF (-only) lens.
