Re: 16-50mm Image quality: Broken or normal?

I experience a similar thing on the NX500. My 20mm definitely delivers a more pleasing result. The 20mm is actually my favorite Samsung lens I've used. Sold my 30mm and even though it technically may be one of the sharpest of the line-up, for me the 20mm has a certain special magic to it. The difference does not appear that pronounced on my NX3300, but my copy of the 20mm definitely beats my 16-50mm in perceived sharpness and clarity. However, I would not consider it as dramatically different as you describe with your lenses.
