Samsung 85mm f/1.4 ED SSA NX Lens Review

Samsung 85mm f/1.4 ED SSA NX Verdict

The sharpness this lens delivers is excellent, and although the price may be high when compared to other Samsung NX lenses, it isn't when compared to 85mm f/1.4 lenses from the likes of Nikon or Sony.

Those looking for an excellent quality telephoto lens for their NX system camera, ideally suited for low light shooting and for creating shallow depth of field effects, as you may do when taking portraits, might not have that many options to choose from. However, this lens should certainly not be overlooked.

The Samsung 85mm f/1.4 lens has good sharpness at the maximum aperture, and is excellent when stopped down.
