Hello,
I used extensively the F50/1.7 and the Pentax DA*55/1.4; a little the Sigma 50 EX.
The DA*55 is far far far better than the F. The rendering, the color, the transition between sharpness and bokeh, and of course sharpness. Many complain about the slow focusing motor. To be honest, it's fast enought, and it's more the AF module of the body that play a role in the speed.
The image it produce are really stunning.
Is the DA*55 is worth the money ? I've bought it 400€ (my most expensive lens so far), compared to the 130€ of the F.
My conclusion : it's the best 400€ i've spent. Period.
