Review on Samsung NX 50-200mm f/4.0-5.6 OIS Zoom Camera Lens (Black): Powerful Photography Performance by Abaraham Duvernot

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An amazing lens with great power and clarity!

As with my NX30 review, I'd like to start by saying that I'm by no means a "photographer". I literally bought the camera with no photography experience to see if this was a hobby I would want to take up, so my experience is based solely on non-technical/new user experiences. I took the NX30 which came with an 18 inch lens. 55mm and was looking for a lens that would give me a bit more zoom capability as the standard lens wasn't enough for some of the shots I wanted to take. I took this lens and it's great! The zoom is great in my opinion; I'll be looking at Mars with it soon, but it gives you an extra zoom that wasn't available with the kit lens. The weight of the lens itself isn't that great given its decent length. When working with this lens, remember that its strong point is zoom. This isn't a lens you want to use on a day-to-day basis, as it struggles to focus on small things when there's no zoom and you're trying to get macro shots. Yes I understand the lens isn't designed for that but I just wanted to talk about it as it took me a little time to understand why I shouldn't use it as a daily rather than 18-55mm. If I can figure out how to upload images to a product review, I will definitely do it! I personally love this lens, this is my first lens purchase for my NX30 and I have no regrets!

Not too heavy or bulky.
