Hello Walt, that DA 50/1.8 looks good if it is going to be loads cheaper than the good old FA's. But honestly I have tried 50mm lenses on my K20D / K-5 and find it is one of the oddest focal lengths on an APS-C - 75 mm. I can't use it inside my home - Birthdays, Prayer Meets, others - I have to move away from the subject and end up hitting the walls; can't use it on the streets - find I need an 18 to 28 mm for street photography, can't use it for city scapes - like the 10-20 mm for this. So what can I use it for - only portraits? I am truly bamboozled. Please help point me to why I should keep the 50 mm??
