REVIEW: Samsung 20mm f/2.8 NX iFunction Pancake
This 20mm pancake lens for Samsung NX series cameras sports a bright f/2.8 maximum aperture, compact and lightweight design and offers a field of view equivalent to a 30.8mm lens on a 35mm camera.

Disappointing
Although this lens is compact, its performance leaves much to be desired. It's slower and not as sharp as the 30mm. If anything, pictures of the same scenes looked worse than with the 18-55 @ 20mm at the same apertures, and while the 18-55 is bulkier, at least it comes with OIS and better AF.

Favorite lens for nx1000
I use this lens with my samsung nx 1000 so frequently that I haven't carried the 20-50 kit lens around since. in terms of sharpness it is pretty comparable to the kit lens and gives a good level of sharpness above f3.5 with some soft corners wide open which is generally to be expected.
Pros:
- Durable
- Easy To Use
- Inexpensive
- Reliable
Cons:
- Bulky
- Not sharp wide open

This lens adds to the NX capabilities
As a beginner photographer I found that this lens works great for indoor low light portrait situations. In many instances it obviates the need for the use of flash. In addition it slims down the camera to the point that it is quite easy and convenient to bring along to indoor family events or where...

Small, nice and accurate, but picture is not the best
Too much distortions, the picture is not the best. Kit lens make better work in this 20 mm focus. I prefer 30 mm F/2.0 lens.

Samsung NX 20mm f/2.8 ( W20NB ) - Review / Lab Test
Pancake lenses cannot be perfect - the small size simply implies some compromises. However, the Samsung NX 20mm f/2.8 does a pretty good job actually. At f/2.8 you have to live with some corner softness and quite high vignetting.

Samsung 20mm f/2.8 NX iFunction Pancake Review
The move towards smaller camera bodies has brought a resurgence of interest in similarly compact lens designs and low-profile lenses that hug the front of the camera are often described as pancake on account of their extreme flatness.

Best 35mm equiv compact on the market
Sharp lens which is a great addition to the Kit lens of any NX system, currently better than any Sony lens and in the higher quality range of the m3/4 lens options. Works good in lowlight thanks to it being in the lower Apeture range (much better than the kit lens).
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Fast / accurate auto-focus
- Lightweight
- Nice Bokeh
