18-200mm zoom launched alongside macro, wide angle and prime options
Samsung has confirmed the release of five new lenses for the NX Compact System Cameras, all of which are compatible with the i-Function feature.
The first in the group is the 18-200mm lens which is optimized for movie performance, offering Voice Motor Coil technology which gives silent AF performance so no lens whirring is picked up by the camera.
A 16mm wide angle lens, with f/2.4 aperture, 60mm macro lens with f/2.8 aperture as well as Optical Image Stabilization, 85mm f/1.4 prime lens and 18-60mm zoom option, which also has OIS technology, have been launched as well.
