Hi,

Thank you for sharing these nice pics!

#2 is my favorite

#1 is maybe a little bit over processed for my taste, and #3 is out of focus too much.

regards,

Ari

Really nice! I regretted selling off this combo when I got an NX30 and then an NX1. I just picked up a replacement n300 with a 30mm. I will add back the 16mm when I can get a decent deal. Nice form factor.

I like the depth of field used and including your mode of transportation to get the shot. Nice bike and makes the photo interesting.

Dig the pics. I've read that some don't like the 16mm, but I like it a lot on my NX500

Hi, thanks! I just realized #3 is shot handheld with Konica Hexar 135mm legacy lens so not that good fit in the backpockets....

Thanks guys!

I think if you hit the right aperture (5,6 or 8) the 16mm is a solid lens. I have been photographing(actively) since last summer so I can only compare it with the kit lens 18-55 and some manual legacy lenses and though the kit lens is quite good the 16 is a notch better.

What's going on in the first picture?  There are some ghost lines to the left of the bicycle seat that are very obvious and the whole thing looks like it has has too much sharpening applied.

I'm not trying to be critical, just curious how this picture ended up looking this way and what those artifacts are...

I noticed this too. I enjoy the composition but agree that something got a little out of whack in processing.

Re: Love my little NX300 and 16mm pancake....

It´s okay with critique....I need it instead of the praise from family and friends

I should have been more clear about the processing...The first picture is a blending of 5 exposures and now when I took a really zoomed look at the artefacts it seems as the alignment of the exposures is a bit off. A rather sloppy mistake from me...:) Had probably not thought about that without your input, thanks!

I use my 16/2,4 full open very often and no remarks.

Great pancake (but not every copy is exactly the same)
