Samsung NX 50-200mm f/4.0-5.6 ED OIS II iFunction Lens Review

Samsung NX 50-200mm f/4.0-5.6 ED OIS II Verdict

The performance of this lens is good, but nothing special, providing decent sharpness through most of the zoom range and good sharpness at maximum telephoto in the centre of the frame. It's a shame that the sharpness towards the edges of the frame doesn't improve as much when stopped down.

It is a well-built lens, with a very effective optical stabilisation system available at a very reasonable price. The addition of iFunction control brings this lens in line with the latest Samsung lenses currently offered.

The Samsung NX 50-200mm f/4.0-5.6 ED II lens is well built with effective OIS at a reasonable price.
