The 55 fits between the DA50 and the DA70, in case you need 55mm instead of 50mm.
There is also the DA35 macro that fit very well between the DA21 and the DA40.
The DA*55 isn't rendering the same as the DA50, optically it's a star lens, a completely different league in terms of color contrast and brightness.
The DA*55 is similar to the Fuji 56, it's the equivalent of a 85 1.4 for photographying people. If you are looking for the highest quality, you could sell your DA50 and buy a DA*55.
