Re: Rank the lenses available for Samsung NX!

By IQ, my impression of my lenses from the photos, rather than measured:

30mm

45mm

18-55mm OIS III

50-200mm OIS III

By my frequency of use:

50-200mm OIS III (by a large margin)

45mm

30mm

18-55mm OIS III

The 18-55 used to get more use on the wide end, but now my Samyang 14mm mostly takes that roll.  If I can only take two lenses and I'm shooting outdoors, then it would be the two zooms though.  If indoors it would be the two primes, unless I need some more reach in which case my Samyang 85mm is an option as long as my subjects can feasibly be manual focused on.  The 50-200 gets so much use for birds.
