Re: Incredible sharpness

It`s quite a decent lens but IMO the 20-50 range isn't really optimal with regards to being wide enough , and it also lacks OIS. I think it was the original NX kit lens.
NX bodies with this lens on Ebay are always are a harder sell and bring much less than the same body selling with the much better 16-50 OIS kit lens.
Unfortunately most earlier bodies came with the non stabilized 20-50 lens.

The 18-55 OIS was a much better option.

That all said , any of those  NX bodies that came with that bottom feeder 20-50 lens lens can be had now for less than $200 and can produce rather good images that hold up well even against newer equipment of most any brand.

My NX300 came with the very good 18-55 OIS lens but I sold off that lens too in favor of  the wider 16-50 OIS lens.
