I like it a lot. It's quite sharp, works well with autofocus and is
easy to focus manually. It's now one of my most frequently used lenses.
Here are a couple of lo-res web pic that I shot with the DA 50-200. I
think they've been seen here before. The wakeboard shot has been
printed at 11 x 17. It shows excellent detail. The old Chevy shot was
sold to a car pub. I'm a big fan of the lens.

Does anybody around here have any experience with the DA 50-200 lens?
I need to get something to fill that range of focal lengths, and the
FA* 80-200/2.8 is both too expensive and too hard to find, so I
wondered about the DA 50-200. I'd only be using it on the *ist D.
