Cory,
I don't know about the DA50-200, but my DA16-45 shows an image like a
24-67 equivalent film zoom.  The DA lenses are fine, the designs just
have a lot of light fall off at the edges... So much fall off that
they really aren't suitable for 35mm film cameras.  Only the middle
2/3rds of the film will be well exposed.  The edges will be too dark.
Lucky for us, the digital sensor is just the right size.
Regards,  Bob S.
