Photorumors.com – Samsung NX 45mm f/1.8 pancake

‘Also, the previously reported 55mm f/1.8 lens is really going to  be a 45mm f/1.8. Samsung reduced the focal length in order to  create “a real” pancake lens.’

I don’t know which is better – 45mm(67,5mm) or 55mm(82,5mm)

  1. In terms of focal legth I would definitely prefer it to be 55mm.
    However if it has to be shorther in order to make it 'pancake' – so be it.
    Pancake lens is what really draws my attention to this system.

  2. I don’t know which is better – 45mm(67,5mm) or 55mm(82,5mm).
    55mm(82,5mm) better

    A 55mm (82mm) would be better, but there is any 55mm pancake available in any system.
    Maybe it is very hard to make to that focal length.
    A 45mm (68m) has only 2° of view angle more than a regular 55mm on APS-C, so that not look so bad…

  4. Still it will be a good addition to the NX lenses range – a good, inexpensive portrait lens… I hope it will be widely available in Europe -unlike the expensive yet excellent 85 1.4, for which I am collecting money, and which cannot be bought anywere here at the moment (at least I could not find it online, anywhere in Europe…)
