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.
