Re: OIS performance - 16-50 S vs 50-150 S

I also have both lenses and a NX1.

But I had to replace my first NX1 and 16-50 S combo!

There was an issue in this combination that in my case the OIS did not work correct on teh 16-50 and in some cases even destroyed the image (blur). There is also an older thread about this here in this forum from me.

After I got the combo replaced OIS works very fine now! I can see how it stabilizes the image and image quality is very good at very low shutter speeds.

My 50-150 S lens has similar and maybe slightly better OIS performance.

But both lenses show very good OIS behavior.

So i guess you may also have problems with your 16-50 S lens.
