Testurteil: "3 out of 5"
Test: Einzeltest: Samsung 16mm f/2.4 NX i-Function Pancake
Zitat: Pros: + Good centre sharpness
+ Light weight
+ Good build
+ Quick to focus
Cons: - Lacklustre sharpness towards edges at wide apertures
- High levels of CA towards the edges of the frame
- High levels of falloff
The nifty compact dimensions and light-weight are the main appeal of this lens and those things are covered very well. Unfortunately the performance of this lens, especially towards the edges, with lacklustre sharpness at wide apertures, high levels of chromatic aberrations and falloff of illumination towards the corners may detract from a users enjoyment.
At £300, it isn´t an inexpensive optic either, so careful consideration may be needed before purchase. If the small size and light weight out-weigh the failing in optical performance, it could still be a useful lens for a Samsung NX system camera.
